3D Printing and Optical Scanning Could Help Mesothelioma Treatment
New technologies offer hope for more effective treatments for malignant pleural mesothelioma and other hard-to-treat cancers. One innovation is the use of 3D printing and optical scanning. These new technologies[…]
Ipilimumab and Nivolumab Can Improve Survival in Mesothelioma Patients
Mesothelioma is a rare and tough cancer to treat and is usually linked to asbestos exposure. Scientists are continually exploring new ways to treat it, and one promising method is[…]
Mesothelin Could Be Used to Improve Mesothelioma Treatment
Mesothelioma is a hard cancer to treat and understand. Understanding protein expressed by mesothelioma cells could potentially help. This protein may be a clue to the cancer, but an easier[…]
Radiomics Can Be Used to Improve Mesothelioma Treatment
Malignant mesothelioma is a challenging cancer to treat. New therapies like T cell receptor fusion constructs (TRuCs) show promise. Identifying which patients will benefit from these treatments is important. Radiomics,[…]
Recurring Collapsed Lung Could Indicate Mesothelioma
A new article highlights the link between a collapsed lung and mesothelioma. Mesothelioma, caused by asbestos exposure, can present unexpectedly due to its long latency period. It often requires many[…]
A Type of T Cell Therapy is Showing Promising Results for Mesothelioma
A clinical trial testing a new type of cell therapy for mesothelioma is actively recruiting patients at sites across the country, including Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida. The trial[…]
A New Guideline for Surgery has Been Created for Mesothelioma
A national panel of 15 mesothelioma specialists across surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, and pathology reached a consensus and issued new guidelines for surgery. The experts reviewed 116 studies and[…]
RSO-021 Controlled Mesothelioma in Two-Thirds of Patients in Study
A new mesothelioma drug controlled the disease in two out of three patients through 12 weeks of treatment. Researchers say it turns cancer’s own defenses against it. Teams at the[…]
Mesothelioma Cells are Able to Get Around Different Types of Treatment
Mesothelioma cells have a survival trick. When researchers exposed them to an experimental drug that targeted one of the cancer’s main growth switches, the cells did not die. Instead, they[…]
Targeting the Collagen Receptor uPARAP to Treat Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma, a cancer with low survival rates, is still a major problem. A major cause of the cancer is asbestos exposure. A new study focuses on a possible treatment target[…]
