A three-drug combination regimen significantly prolongs survival in patients with HPV-positive cancers, new data from a clinical trial shows. For patients who had not been treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, it resulted in significant tumour shrinkage in 88% of patients, and even in patients who failed immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment, 63% had significant tumour shrinkage.

A new study has found that Istradefylline, a drug already approved to treat Parkinson's disease, not only reduces the toxicity associated with the chemotherapy drug cisplatin, but also boosts its cancer-fighting power, promising a potential treatment to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy.

Many lung cancer patients will be detected by genetic testing to carry an EGFR mutation, and these patients can often control their tumours with EGFR-targeted drugs. Although targeted drugs are effective and have fewer side effects than chemotherapy, resistance to them inevitably occurs, after which they no longer work.

The FDA has granted accelerated approval to Adagrasib for the treatment of patients with KRAS G12C mutations in non-small cell lung cancer. In the trial, the drug resulted in disease control in 80% of patients, of which, 43% had substantial tumour shrinkage.

The Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute is a non-profit cancer treatment and research centre established in 1981 by the Florida Legislature and opened on the campus of the University of South Florida in October 1986.

Blood cancer is a very complicated disease and should be treated in a timely manner to improve your disease and health condition and to gradually relieve your symptoms.

New therapy for lung cancer!

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

Recent findings show that the use of cutting-edge immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (referred to as immunotherapy in this article) has increased rapidly over the past decade in the population of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the survival benefit is more pronounced in younger people than in older people, who have limited survival benefit with this therapy.

Both laryngeal cancer and laryngitis are common diseases, but there are some differences between these two diseases. Therefore, it is necessary for us to learn more about the common knowledge of laryngeal cancer and laryngitis, which can help us to prevent and detect the diseases.
