Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Immune Checkpoint Blockade, or ICB therapy, has become the gold standard for treating lung cancer because of its frequently successful results. High levels of the PD-L1 protein have served as the main indicator of a favourable response to treatment up until now

Researchers develop upgraded tumor model to improve search for cancer ther
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Isolated from other cells in a laboratory dish, tumour cells won't reveal their actual nature. Rice University researchers created an improved tumour model that houses osteosarcoma cells alongside immune cells known as macrophages inside a three-dimensional framework designed to simulate bon

Study suggests how tumour cells become resistant to chemotherapy
Updated : 3 years ago IST
A new weapon in the arsenal of cancer cells' treatment resistance, according to a study conducted by the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, is the ability for them to respond randomly to chemotherapy.

Researchers reveal why some tumour cells become resistant to chemotherapy
Updated : 3 years ago IST
According to recent research led by the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, cancer cells have an inbuilt randomness in their capacity to respond to chemotherapy, which is another weapon in their treatment resistance toolbox.

Scientists identify protein that's crucial to tumor cells' metabolism
Updated : 3 years ago IST
Tumor cells typically alter their energy metabolism and increase glucose uptake to support their rapid division and spread. This limits glucose availability for immune cells and therefore dampens the body's anti-cancer immune response.

Study suggests new type of immunotherapy for ovarian cancer patients
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
CAR T-cell therapy, a sort of cancer treatment in which the immune system's T cells are trained to attack tumour cells, was found to be effective in mice with ovarian cancer, according to a study.

Study reveals cause of tumor cell resistance to immunotherapy
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
The source of tumour cell resistance to immunotherapy was identified by a recent study that examined the pancreatic cancer tumour microenvironment, and novel therapeutic approaches were developed as a result.

Researchers reveal how metastatic cancer causes leaky blood vessels
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
Researchers examine the local communication between endothelial cells and tumors cells and its effects on endothelial cell orientation. The approach uses co-cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells and breast epithelial tumor cell lines to simulate the tumor-endothelial interaction. T

Study suggests protein plays a key role in immunotherapy
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
The study found protein is crucial in helping malignancies avoid immune attacks. The "fragile X mental retardation protein" (FMRP) is a protein that controls a network of genes and cells in the tumor microenvironment that help the tumor "hidden" from immune cells.
