Researchers have identified a next-generation BTK degrader that could help overcome treatment resistance in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and related blood cancers.
UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a protein, UCHL1, in highly aggressive neuroendocrine carcinomas and neuroblastoma that could potentially be used as a molecular biomarker for diagnosing these cancers and predicting and monitoring responses to therapy.
Rice University researchers in the lab of chemist Han Xiao have identified a promising new immunological pathway to treat stubborn bone tumors, one of most prevalent forms of metastases in breast cancer patients.
A 10-year follow-up study of nearly 2,500 U.S. men who received prostate cancer treatment will help inform decision-making in terms of treatments and side effects for a diverse population.

The NEST-1 study, which is evaluating botensilimab and balstilimab (BOT/BAL) in the neoadjuvant setting for colorectal cancer, both those with Microsatellite Stable (MSS) CRC and Microsatellite Instability High CRC (MSI-High), has demonstrated positive results.
The current standard of care for identifying targetable mutations in cancer treatment is to conduct molecular profiles on tumor tissue samples, but a study published in JAMA Network Open indicates that adding liquid biopsy testing for circulating tumor DNA mutations increases targetable mutation detection rates.
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center researchers, led by Jonathan Bricker, launched an AI-powered chatbot app called QuitBot to help more people successfully quit smoking cigarettes.
