A new form of CAR T kills leukemia, multiple myeloma, and sarcoma in mice, opening the door to a future off-the-shelf cancer ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have now developed a way to reprogram these cancer-fighting cells directly inside the body. This new method could remove the need for external manufacturing, ...

Researchers discovered an antioxidant, glutathione, that cancer cells appear to be "addicted to" as fuel, opening new ...

Scientists have created a new antibody treatment that helps the immune system recognize and attack pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer cells use a sugary "disguise" to trick the immune system into ...

Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment by harnessing the body's own immune system to fight disease. But many ...

The powerful gene-editing technique CRISPR–Cas9 might offer a way to make safer, more effective cancer-fighting immune cells ...

The treatment works well in conjunction with chemo and radiation.

Scientists have discovered that cells can sense far beyond the surfaces they touch. While individual cancer cells can probe ...

A carotenoid that's already widely available in fruit and vegetables, and as a supplement, has been found to bolster the cancer-fighting abilities of immune cells, making it a promising new candidate ...

Cancer cells that disseminate from a tumor can enter a period of dormancy that may persist from months to decades before metastasis. Efforts to improve adjuvant therapy to remove residual cancer cells ...

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

On the flipside, if telomeres are too long, it can also spell trouble because cancer cells require long telomeres to become ...
