Allogeneic, or “off-the-shelf,” cell therapies promise something different: one donor’s cells banked and shipped on demand to ...

A newly identified weakness in “zombie” cells may open the door to more precise cancer treatments by turning their own ...

A new kind of CRISPR that destroys cells rather than gene editing them has shown potential for killing sick cells while leaving healthy cells untouched. The technology has largely been tested in cells ...

Of particular interest were novel therapies for EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations in non-small cell lung cancer, which ...

A new strategy to strengthen the body’s natural immune defenses against cancer is showing early promise, particularly for patients with limited treatment options.

Since scientists first discovered that human immune cells could be modified to become cancer-fighting agents, they’ve been trying to engineer a cell that’s effective against solid tumors, which ...

A common eye-health nutrient, zeaxanthin, may also help the body fight cancer more effectively. Scientists discovered it strengthens T cells and enhances the impact of immunotherapy treatments. Found ...

Scientists have discovered a sugar compound from deep-sea bacteria that can destroy cancer cells in a dramatic way. This natural substance, produced by microbes living in the ocean, causes cancer ...

Cancer cells are known to reawaken embryonic genes to grow. A new study reveals the disease also hijacks the proteins, or "editors," that control how those genes are read. The findings, published in ...

When activated by its target, the newly characterized molecule rips the genome apart, a lethal move that researchers can ...
