Biomarker discovery and PARP inhibitors have opened new frontiers in treatment. Efforts in early detection through genetic screening are showing promising results.

AI Contributes to Early Detection of Clinically Relevant Breast Cancer
THURSDAY, Feb. 13, 2025 (HealthDay News) — Artificial intelligence (AI) contributes to early detection of clinically relevant breast cancer, according to a study published online Feb. 3 in The Lancet Digital Health.

Urine-Based Test Provides Accurate Testing Option for Advanced Prostate Cancer
The 18-gene MyProstateScore 2.0 (MPS2) test using first-catch non-digital rectal examination (DRE) urine is highly sensitive for grade group (GG) ≥2 prostate cancer and can improve the proportion of biopsies avoided.

100-year-old heart drug made from foxglove may help ‘dissolve’ clumps of spreading cancer cells
By breaking up clusters of cancer cells, an old heart drug called digoxin may help stop tumors from spreading to other organs, a small trial shows.

TROPION-Lung12 phase 3 trial initiated evaluating Datroway as part of adjuvant regimen for patients with early-stage NSCLC at high risk of relapse
he first patient has been dosed in the TROPION-Lung12 phase 3 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of adjuvant Datroway (datopotamab deruxtecan) plus rilvegostomig or rilvegostomig monotherapy versus standard of care in patients with stage 1 adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after complete surgical resection who are ctDNA-positive or have other high risk pathological features.

Study identifies potential microRNA target to overcome breast cancer resistance
A new University of Cincinnati Cancer Center study has identified a particular strand of microRNA as a promising new target for overcoming breast cancer treatment resistance and improving outcomes. The research was recently published in the journal Cancers.

Steam-blast treatment for prostate cancer investigated in clinical trial
Prostate cancer is usually treated with surgery and radiation therapy, but these can have drastic side effects. A new clinical trial is exploring the safety and efficacy of killing the cancer cells with a blast of steam.

AI lasers may help detect breast cancer very early
Detecting breast cancer in its very early stages is often difficult with traditional mammograms, but a promising new technology could change that. Scottish researchers have combined artificial intelligence (AI) with advanced laser analysis to identify subtle changes in blood that may indicate the earliest signs of breast cancer. This breakthrough, published in the Journal of Biophotonics, […]
