Findings from a recent study suggest that patients may experience a greater occurrence of infections in the years preceding a cancer diagnosis.
Epithelial ovarian cancer is by far the most common ovarian cancer subtype, accounting for 90 percent of ovarian cancers. The complex genetic heterogeneity of this disease makes treatment particularly difficult. While the introduction of PARP inhibitors to treat ovarian cancers has been a major advancement, only the approximately 50 percent of epithelial ovarian cancers that exhibit defective DNA repair via homologous recombination are potentially responsive to PARP inhibition. Moreover, the development of therapeutic resistance remains a challenge.
A new study suggests that a HER2-targeted therapy approved for breast cancer may be effective for several other cancers. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a protein that can promote cancer progression...
