Tumor Mutational Load Predicts Survival Post-Immunotherapy

A survey of thousands of advanced cancers suggests a way to identify those most likely to respond to groundbreaking therapies that unleash an immune response against tumors, but the results highlight how difficult it will be to translate such an approach into a reliable clinical test. More...

DNA Extraction Technique Improved for Chagas Diagnosis

Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is endemic in many parts of the Americas, where six to seven million people are infected. In the acute phase of the infection, serology may still be negative but positive for parasite by microscopic examination or by culture in specialized medium. More...

Molecular Prognostic Biomarker Found for CNS Lymphoma

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), a rare subgroup of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) arising in the central nervous system (CNS), is an aggressive malignant variant of nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). PCNSLs account for 3% of all primary CNS tumors and 1% of NHLs in adults. More...

Prognostic Signature Described in HPV-Positive Cell Carcinomas

Human papilloma virus (HPV) is an etiological agent of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Patients with HPV+ OPSCC have high long-term survival rates: however, current radiation protocols are aggressive and can result in life-long morbidities, including difficulty swallowing, chronic dry-mouth, and altered speech.
