Trial Shows MRI-Guided Radiotherapy Improves Treatment for Localized Prostate Cancer
According to a clinical trial, MRI-guided radiotherapy produces fewer side effects and better quality of life for patients with localized prostate cancer than computed tomography-guided radiotherapy.
News
Gene Target Identified That May Boost Cancer Immunotherapy
Researchers at the Massachusetts General Hospital have identified a gene that is active in some treatment-resistant cancer cells, which when silenced, enhanced the cells' susceptibility to immunotherapy.
