Indian Scientists Create Novel Nanomedicine To Target Breast Cancer Cells
Scientists at Pune's Agharkar Research Institute developed a nanomedicine targeting breast cancer cells by silencing key genes MCL-1 and Survivin.

HIV Study: Boosting Immune Cells May Help Fight Infection
Scientists are tweaking a powerful cancer therapy in hopes it could fight HIV instead, by supercharging patients' own immune cells.

New Method Helps Recover Cells For Cancer Therapy, Says IIT Bombay
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay have developed a simpler and more efficient method to recover immune cells grown in the lab for T-cell based cancer therapies.

Indian Scientists Develop AI Framework For Personalised Cancer Therapy
Scientists at the S N Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences introduced an artificial intelligence (AI) framework that could change how we understand and treat cancer, and also pave the way for personalised therapies.

New AI Model To Boost Patient Response To Cancer Therapy
The new tool DeepPT, developed by researchers at Australian National University (ANU), predicts a patient's messenger RNA (mRNA) profile. This mRNA -- essential for protein production -- is also the key molecular information for personalised cancer
-
IIT Hyderabad Researchers Develop Combination Therapy For Cancer
The researchers have developed a synergetic combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy using a naturally derived anticancer agent and shown its efficacy in destroying cancer cells.
-
This Cancer Therapy Works In 75% Patients
This particular cancer treatment targets rare genetic mutations that exist in about 5,000 people in the United States instead of the tumor's location in the body and has shown success in three-quarters of patients.

Scientists Find New Way To Fight Therapy-resistant Prostate Cancer
Washington: Scientists have identified a signalling circuit in cells that can be targeted to treat advanced prostate cancer in patients who are resistant to existing therapies. Prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of death after lung cancer in American men, researchers said. Currently, the most effective treatment for advanced prostate cance...

Laser Heat Could Improve Prostate Cancer Treatment
Researchers have found that an experimental treatment -- the precise application of heat via laser to a tumour -- is not only feasible and safe in men with intermediate risk of prostate cancer but can also help avoid certain side effects associated with conventional treatment.
-
The Decades-Long Quest to Cure Cancer
There are more than 100 types of cancer, each with its own diagnosis and treatment. Jointly, they cause over one in ten of all human deaths.
-
2-step Therapy for Breast Tumour Shows Promise
Disabling a cancer-causing pathway and administering an immune-molecule-based 'mop-up' therapy can eradicate a type of breast tumour in mice, according to researchers who said that the treatment could slash the amount of chemotherapies required in humans to half.
-
Late Delay as Pacific Trade Talks Near Landmark Deal
A dozen Pacific nations closed in on a sweeping free-trade pact on Sunday in Atlanta but failed to finalize terms on the fifth day of round-the-clock talks, dashing hopes raised by an earlier breakthrough on protections for new biotech drugs.

Alternative Therapies Risk Effectiveness of Cancer Treatment, Researchers Find
Common complementary therapies found to have serious drug interactions or reduce the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiation treatmentThe complementary therapies that cancer patients most commonly mention to doctors all potentially jeopardise the...
