Missing cancer gene may boost response to immunotherapy

For some patients with the most common type of lung cancer, known as lung adenocarcinoma, there's new hope.

Study links higher glycemic index diets with increased lung cancer risk

In this study, researchers examined whether people who follow higher-GI or higher-GL diets have different risks of developing lung cancer.

Identifying vulnerabilities and new targets for hard-to-treat carcinomas

Some tumors are almost impossible to treat. That's especially true for carcinomas, which don't behave like other malignancies.

New signaling molecule drives development of tissue resident memory T cells

We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (TRM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to disease.

World’s first experimental lung cancer vaccine to enter clinical trials

People at high risk of lung cancer will soon be able to receive the first ever experimental vaccine designed to prevent the disease, in a world-first clinical trial led by researchers at UCL and the University of Oxford.

Study offers new insights on patient care and lung cancer surveillance rates

Despite recommendations for posttreatment surveillance in lung cancer patients, there is wide variability in the follow-up care that lung cancer patients receive. A recent study, led by senior author Leah Backhus, MD, MPH, Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery (Thoracic Surgery) in the Stanford Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, offers new insights on patient care and lung cancer surveillance rates.

US cancer registries, constrained by Trump policies, to recognize only ‘male’ or ‘female’ patients

The top authorities of U.S. cancer statistics will soon have to classify the sex of patients strictly as male, female, or unknown, a change scientists and advocates say will harm the health of transgender people, one of the nation's most marginalized populations.

Neoantigens-loaded DC vaccines show strong potential to overcome tumor resistance

Despite the success of immune checkpoint inhibitors in revolutionizing oncology, their benefits remain limited to a small fraction of patients.

DeepTarget tool uncovers primary and secondary drug targets across cancer types

One person's side effect could be another person's treatment if we expand our perspective on small molecule drug targets, according to a new study published November 5, 2025, in npj Precision Oncology.

Researchers engineer a novel technique for guiding endoscopes to deep lung tumors

Researchers at The University of Osaka have engineered a novel technique, Balloon-Assisted Bronchoscope Delivery (BDBD), to guide endoscopes to small, early-stage lung cancers hidden deep within the periphery of the lungs.

17 Nov 2025

Innovative CRISPR strategy resensitizes lung cancer to treatment

In a major step forward for cancer care, researchers at ChristianaCare's Gene Editing Institute have shown that disabling the NRF2 gene with CRISPR technology can reverse chemotherapy resistance in lung cancer.

Enhancing the cancer-immunity cycle through innovative vaccines

Therapeutic cancer vaccines have experienced a remarkable resurgence over the past decade, representing a paradigm shift in oncology toward harnessing the immune system's intrinsic ability to combat malignancies.

Stanford scientists discover unexpected cancer resistance in aged mice

Old laboratory mice develop substantially fewer and less-aggressive lung tumors than younger animals in a new study led by Stanford University researchers.

Exosomes identified as key mediators in obstructive sleep apnea and its comorbidities

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a global public health issue marked by repeated upper airway collapse during sleep, is tied to diverse diseases-from cardiovascular conditions to cancer.

Nanoparticle vaccine eliminates HPV-induced tumors in animal model

A nanoparticle vaccine designed to fight cancers induced by human papillomavirus (HPV) eradicated tumors in an animal model of late-stage metastatic disease, UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists report in a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Study reveals trends and future projections of cancer mortality in China

Cancer remains the second leading cause of death in China, accounting for nearly one-quarter of all deaths nationwide. Rapid socioeconomic change, environmental exposure, and an aging population have intensified the burden of cancer across the country.

Comprehensive kinase atlas reveals new insights into cell signaling and disease

The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme's "tail" called phosphorylation patterns.

7 Nov 2025

Inflammation identified as a key driver in the earliest stages of lung cancer

By creating high-resolution cellular and molecular visual maps of lung cancer before and during development, researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that the earliest stages of lung cancer may be driven by inflammation, suggesting that targeting proinflammatory pathways could be an early intervention approach.

American Cancer Society releases first-ever U.S. Tobacco Atlas

The American Cancer Society (ACS) today announced the inaugural release of The U.S. Tobacco Atlas, a fact-based, digital scientific resource offering comprehensive data and insights on tobacco use, control policies, and their impact nationwide. The report notes that cigarette smoking among U.S. adults dropped from 42% in 1965 to 11% in 2023.
