Liquid Biopsy Blood Tests Detect CtDNA
The so-called “liquid biopsies” blood tests that detect circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), may not only sound an early alert that a treatment’s effect is diminishing, but may also help explain why, and sometimes offering clues about what to do next. More...12 Jul 2017
Three-In-One Blood Test Could Fuel Personalized Prostate Cancer Treatment
A three-in-one blood test has been developed that can predict a patient's response to Poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, as well as how well the drugs may impact survival, and how likely patients are to develop drug resistance. More...06 Jul 2017
Simple Test Improves Treatment for Colon Cancer Patients
Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the USA and the second deadliest. There are four primary stages of colon cancer. Generally, with stage 2, the cancer has not spread to nearby lymph nodes or distant organs but has grown into or through the wall of the colon. More...06 Jul 2017
Bacterial Infection Associated with Sjögren’s Syndrome Risk
In a population-based case-control study, researchers have found a link between newly diagnosed Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS) and previous infection with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). Although an increased risk of tuberculosis (TB) has previously been found in patients with SjS, in this study TB infection itself did not appear to be associated with an increased risk of developing SjS.

Pre-Op Cholesterol Level Predicts RCC Patients Survival
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most frequently diagnosed renal malignancy. The constant advances of modern imaging technologies and the percentage of incidentally detected renal tumors has constantly increased during the last couple of decades, and a good percentage of patients are still diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).
