Targeted therapies are cancer medications that work more selectively than standard chemotherapy medications. They do this by targeting specific molecules or genetic changes in cancer cells in order to ...

Lung cancer in never-smokers exhibits distinct biological characteristics, often leading to late-stage diagnoses due to lack of screening. Targeted therapies, guided by molecular testing, offer ...

Leading cancer researchers from UC San Francisco presented talks about advances in targeted therapies, cancer genomics, using AI to personalize cancer treatment, improving diagnosis of hard-to-treat ...

A University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center study shows that a targeted form of radiation therapy can be safely delivered ...

Advanced imaging, particularly PSMA PET scans, enhances detection of microscopic disease, allowing for more precise treatment ...

Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for therapeutics. Among them, the Y220C mutation is the ninth most frequent and it ...

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) therapy is a promising new class of targeted treatments. Based on a cell’s natural mechanism for eliminating diseased proteins, this therapy can combat hard-to-treat ...

Metastatic melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer. In an effort to achieve targeted therapy for metastatic melanoma, researchers recently developed a new radioactive drug that emits alpha ...

Results from a trial led by researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center showed that a targeted therapy combination improved outcomes for patients with metastatic clear-cell ...
