Iniulat ng AI Larawang ginawa ng AI
Researchers have identified a novel protein biomarker that detects lung cancer at an early stage with high accuracy. The discovery, detailed in a recent study, could enhance screening methods and improve patient outcomes. Clinical trials showed promising results in identifying the disease before symptoms appear.
New compounds halt cancer growth without damaging healthy cells
Scientists from the Francis Crick Institute and Vividion Therapeutics have developed chemical compounds that prevent the RAS gene from signaling tumor growth via the PI3K pathway. The treatment stopped tumor growth in mice models of lung and breast cancer without causing side effects like hyperglycemia. It is now entering human clinical trials.
