Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new way to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining and losing whole chromosomes, changes that help tumors grow, adapt and resist treatment. In ...

Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in ...

A new preclinical study in mice shows that precancerous cells in the pancreas can be eliminated before they have the chance to become tumors.

Scientists have uncovered new genetic rules that determine whether the immune system’s “killer” T cells remain powerful long-term defenders or become worn out and ineffective. By building a detailed ...

Younger colorectal cancer patients have abnormally stiff colon tissue that promotes tumor growth, pointing to biomechanical forces as a key factor in early-onset disease.

Wistar Institute scientists have designed a two-vaccine approach that not only targets the tumors’ unique molecular identity ...

Obesity is now linked to at least 13 types of cancer, making it one of the most preventable cancer risk factors in the United States.

Scientists are developing cancer-eating bacteria designed to grow inside oxygen-free tumors and attack cancer from within.

Obesity significantly increases the risk of developing certain types of cancer through several interacting biological factors ...

T cell lymphomas are notoriously difficult to treat because immunotherapy, despite being one of the most effective therapies for treating cancer, can't easily distinguish cancerous T cells from ...
