Plasma or Urine Liquid Biopsy Tests May Guide Colorectal Cancer Treatment
A recent paper suggested that liquid biopsy examination of blood or urine could aid in evaluating the effectiveness of therapy for colorectal cancers that had begun to metastasize beyond the site of the original tumor. More...23 Feb 2021
Proteogenomic and Metabolomic Studies Characterize Human Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive type of cancer that can occur in the brain or spinal cord. Glioblastoma forms from cells called astrocytes that support nerve cells. Glioblastoma can occur at any age, but tends to occur more often in older adults. It can cause worsening headaches, nausea, vomiting and seizures. More...23 Feb 2021
Study Confirms Value of the MyProstateScore Urine Test for Prostate Cancer Screening
A recent paper confirmed that the MyProstateScore test could be used with confidence to detect clinically significant (grade group higher than 2) prostate cancers when compared to commonly used prostate specific antigen-based diagnostic screening. More...22 Feb 2021
Next Generation Sequencing Finds More Gene Mutations for Leukemia
Myeloid malignancies are characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and/or defects in differentiation of abnormal myeloid progenitor cells. Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are often thought to be precursors to a higher grade myeloid malignancies, namely acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
