Researchers build first large-scale atlas of how immune cells react to mutations during cancer immunotherapy.

MedicalXpress, 01/10/2024

The eight-year study, outlines how cancer immunotherapy induces tumor recognition through neoantigens to reshape the tumor ecosystem. Neoantigens are small peptides produced when cancer cells mutate and are a primary marker for the immune system to recognize cancer cells as different from self...

Combination chemo helps people with leiomyosarcoma live longer.

National Cancer Institute, 02/10/2024

The combination of doxorubicin and trabectedin had shown promise in small studies of leiomyosarcoma, a tumor that develops in smooth muscle cells. Although it can arise almost anywhere in the body, it's most common in the uterus, abdomen, and pelvis...

Researchers develop insights into KRAS mutations in pancreatic cancers.

EurekAlert, 02/10/2024

The researchers found that KRAS-G12D, the most common mutation occurring in 35 percent of study patients, was associated with aggressive cancer and the worst outcomes. The variant was also linked with increased rates of distant recurrence, or metastatic disease arising after an operation to remove a tumor...
