In May, the American Society of Clinical Oncology released guidelines on the use of germline genetic testing panels in concert with tumor testing for cancer patients.1
For localized prostate cancer, multimodal artificial intelligence models have revealed a more accurate way to assess prostate cancer risk. By combining advanced artificial intelligence with digital pathology images and clinical data, researchers developed a way to approach risk classification that outperforms traditional methods. These findings were published in JCO Precision Oncology. The research found that...
An international, multidisciplinary team of leading neuro-oncology researchers and clinicians has released new recommendations for good clinical practice—a set of guidelines that helps ensure clinical trial results are reliable, and patients are protected—regarding the use of artificial intelligence methods to more accurately diagnose, monitor, and treat brain cancer patients. The team recently published two companion...
Scientists at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center have identified 16 genes that breast cancer cells use to survive in the bloodstream after they’ve escaped the low-oxygen regions of a tumor. Each is a potential therapeutic target to stop cancer recurrence, and one—MUC1—is already in clinical trials. The research was published online Sept. 28 in...
