Combination Treatment Improves Survival in Advanced Prostate Cancer with Genetic Mutations - News Center

Combination therapy improves progression-free survival for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with specific genetic mutations compared to individual therapies.

Results indicate that combining abiraterone/prednisone with olaparib is more effective than use of either agent alone.

7 Big Questions About Cancer, Answered

Cancer understanding has evolved to include not just genetic mutations but also epigenetic changes that influence gene expression.

7 Big Questions About Cancer, Answered

Cancer development is influenced by both genetic mutations and epigenetic changes, highlighting the complexity of treatment and understanding.

Groundbreaking Ovarian Cancer Vaccine at an "Exciting" Moment, Lead Scientist Says

Oxford is developing the world's first ovarian cancer vaccine, potentially transforming preventative care for women at high risk.

The vaccine may empower women to avoid drastic preemptive surgeries.

Do stem-cell transplants increase cancer risk? Long-lived recipients offer clues

Long-term transplant recipients for blood cancer show no increased risk of cancer-causing mutations from donor stem cells.

H5N1 virus in Louisiana bird flu patient shows mutations that could increase transmissibility to humans, CDC analysis finds

H5N1 virus mutations in a Louisiana patient could enhance human transmissibility, but no human transmission has been confirmed.

Risk to the general public remains low despite the observed genetic mutations in the H5N1 virus.

Bird Flu Samples From Very Ill Patient Had Concerning' Mutations

H5N1 mutations in Louisiana patient may aid virus in human infection, but mutations absent in original poultry samples offer some reassurance.
