    Combination immunotherapy shrank a variety of metastatic gastrointestinal cancers

    A new form of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy, a form of personalized cancer immunotherapy, dramatically improved the treatment’s effectiveness in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal cancers, according to results of a clinical trial led by researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The findings, published April 1, 2025 in Nature Medicine, offer hopethat this therapy could be used to treat a variety of solid tumors, which has so far eluded researchers developing…

  • Researchers develop new way to match young cancer patients with the right drugs

    Researchers develop new way to match young cancer patients with the right drugs

    A pan-Canadian team has developed a new way to quickly find personalized treatments for young cancer patients, by growing their tumours in chicken eggs and analyzing their proteins.

    The team, led by researchers from the University of British Columbia and BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute, is the first in Canada to combine these two techniques to identify and test a drug for a young patient’s tumour in time for their treatment.

    Their success in finding a new drug for the patient,…

    Exposure to air pollution in childhood is associated with reduced brain connectivity

    A new study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), a centre supported by the “la Caixa” Foundation, has found that children exposed to higher levels of air pollution in early and mid childhood have weaker connections between key brain regions. The findings, published in Environment International, highlight the potential impact of early exposure to air pollution on brain development.

    The research showed reduced functional connectivity within and between certain cortical…

    Omega-6 fatty acid promotes the growth of an aggressive type of breast cancer, study finds

    Linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid found in seed oils such as soybean and safflower oil, and animal products including pork and eggs, specifically enhances the growth of the hard-to-treat “triple negative” breast cancer subtype, according to a preclinical study led by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. The discovery could lead to new dietary and pharmaceutical strategies against breast and other cancers.

    In the study, published March 14 in Science, the researchers found that linoleic…
