Could your cancer treatment be designed specifically for your tumour? Personalised mRNA vaccines are bringing that idea ...
Weizmann Institute of Science and Rowan University researchers show that repair enzymes fail to fix gene structures of ...
Most cancer genome studies have focused on mutations in the tumor itself and how such gene variants allow a tumor to grow unchecked. A new study takes a deep dive into inherited cancer mutations ...
An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...
Every cancer carries a unique genetic fingerprint: variations in DNA known as “somatic variants” that occur in tumor DNA but are absent from the patient’s healthy cells. While some cancers may also ...
Andrea Califano began his career as a physicist. But that's not why he's now calling cancer a quantum disease. "We're really ...
Researchers have created the first complete map showing how hundreds of mutations in a key cancer gene affect tumor growth. By testing every possible mutation in a critical hotspot, they found that ...
Comprehensive maps of mutations in healthy and diseased gastric tissue give clues about how cancer arises and could inform early-detection strategies. Read the paper: The somatic mutation landscape of ...
An experimental cancer vaccine has shown promise in keeping certain cancers from coming back. In a phase 1 clinical trial led in part by the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, ...
Dr. Marwan G. Fakih explains that KRAS mutations, found in 45% of patients with colorectal cancer, include the rare KRAS G12C mutation, leading to Lumakras approval. According to the National Cancer ...
A new study headed by teams at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), and Open Targets has indicated how mutations that cause cancer drug resistance fall ...
