The FDA has recently granted orphan drug designation to Ezurpimtrostat, a PPT-1 inhibitor for the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

The clinical trial (PARABLE) will take place at 22 sites across the UK and is planned to recruit 192 patients at higher risk of developing heart problems. the PARABLE trial is led by researchers from the Royal Marsden Hospital, the University of Cambridge, and the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) UK, and is managed by the Clinical Trials and Statistics Unit, funded by Cancer Research UK, at the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR). was conducted.

For brain cancer, the major obstacle to treatment is not the tumour, but the brain itself. How to break the "blood-brain barrier" and allow effective anti-cancer drugs to enter the brain to take effect has long been a key issue in brain cancer treatment. Recently, a new study has shown that a new type of pump can be implanted in brain cancer patients to safely break the blood-brain barrier and better treat brain cancer!

In recent years, scientists have begun to look at "transforming" cancer cells from life-threatening bad actors to help fight cancer.

New research confirms that the innovative treatment Zolbetuximab, in combination with chemotherapy, is highly effective in the treatment of gastric cancer, especially in advanced stages, and is expected to be a potential new treatment for patients with gastric cancer.

Although immortality is still only a myth in the mirror, living a long and healthy life is a goal that most people seem to be able to achieve.

According to researchers at the Tisch Cancer Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, a new treatment that helps the immune system kill multiple myeloma cancer cells has benefited up to 73% of patients in 2 clinical trials!

Dry eye after excimer surgery is a common problem. The main reason for the occurrence of dry eye after surgery is that during excimer surgery, the production of corneal flap and the cutting of matrix cut off the sensory nerve of part of the cornea, reducing the sensory and neurotrophic functions of the cornea, leading to the reduction of reflective tear secretion and the number of blinks, which leads to the reduction of the amount of tear secretion and the stability of the tear film. The study found that the corneal nerve after surgery can be restored to the preoperative level after 6-9 months of regeneration and repair. Therefore, dry eye may be obvious at the early stage after surgery, but it will gradually reduce with corneal repair until it returns to normal.

Science has published two consecutive research articles that suggest new ways to improve the efficacy of CAR-T for solid tumours.

For many patients after early lung cancer surgery, it is common for them to worry about recurrence. For this reason, many patients tend to undergo CT examinations more closely to ensure that they have not had a recurrence. However, a recent new study conducted by researchers from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that even with more frequent CT reviews, post-operative outcomes for lung cancer did not improve...
