Latest Treatment Of Cancer ..
Cancer treatment has evolved significantly, offering new hope to patients. Here are some of the latest developments:
Immunotherapy Advances
- *Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) Therapy*: A personalized cancer immunotherapy that has shown promise in treating metastatic gastrointestinal cancers by improving treatment effectiveness.
- *CAR T-Cell Therapy*: Engineering patients' immune cells to treat cancer, with ongoing research to expand its use to more cancer types and manage side effects.
- *Combination Immunotherapy*: Researchers are exploring combining immunotherapies with other treatments, such as JAK inhibitors, to enhance effectiveness.
Targeted Therapies
- *Precision Oncology*: Tailoring treatment to individual patients based on their unique genetic profiles, offering new hope for effective cancer treatment.
- *CHK1 Inhibitors*: Targeting a weakness in cancer cells containing extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) to keep cancer at bay.
- *KRAS-Targeted Drugs*: Developing treatments that pair targeted drugs with experimental antibody drugs to flag cancer cells for the immune system.¹
Early Detection and Diagnosis
- *Multi-Cancer Screening Test*: A blood test that can identify 18 early-stage cancers with high accuracy, potentially paving the way for cost-effective, population-wide screening.
- *Personalized Cancer Vaccines*: Using mRNA technology to prime the immune system to target cancer cells and reduce recurrence risk.²
Other Breakthroughs
- *Seven-Minute Cancer Treatment Jab*: A new injection that takes just seven minutes to administer, freeing up time for medical professionals and speeding up treatment.
- *Radiopharmaceuticals*: Delivering radiation therapy directly to cancer cells, offering a new approach to treatment.
- *Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Cancer Treatment*: AI-based tools, such as SCORPIO, predicting which patients will respond to immunotherapy and improving treatment outcomes.
