Phase I trial will evaluate combination of fecal transplants and immunotherapy for melanoma

In mice, new compound lifts molecular ‘brakes’ that normally slow the regeneration of blood stem cells

Researchers discovered that some pancreatic tumors produce more of a molecule called 'perlecan' to remodel the environment around them, helping cancer cells spread more easily to other parts of the body

The drug, an experimental compound called PTC596, has a durable half-life and can evade a pump that many cancer cells use to expel drugs

Early findings in lab show reduced ability of cells to migrate

The research team identified a novel therapeutic target for primary effusion lymphoma

The finding could provide an important step toward drugs that help prevent recurrent cancers

Research explains how the drugs work, who else might benefit from their use

A strain of the common cold virus has been found to potentially target, infect, and destroy cancer cells in patients with bladder cancer

A feature of the vaccine causes these bacteria to self-destruct once they've done their job, making it safe for use in humans
