A new experimental therapeutic vaccine shows promise for people with KRAS-mutated pancreatic or colorectal cancer.
The vaccine delivers tumor-targeting molecules directly into the lymph nodes, activating T cells and showing positive results in a phase 1 trial. [ more ]
MIT experts develop AI models that can detect pancreatic cancer early
MIT researchers developed a neural network called PRISM that can detect pancreatic cancer at a higher rate than current diagnostic standards.
PRISM was trained on diverse sets of real electronic health records, surpassing the scale of information typically used for AI models in this field. [ more ]
