Multi-institutional trial explores new lifeline for advanced prostate patients19:48 For men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to standard hormone therapies, treatment options are limited – and time matters. As the disease progresses, the window for effective, less intensive treatments begins to close. Evidence shows RF-TC improves seizure control by altering brain networks19:48 Drug-resistant epilepsy affects millions of people worldwide and remains one of the most difficult neurological disorders to treat. For patients whose seizures continue despite medication, surgical removal of seizure-causing tissue can be effective. Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty outperforms oral semaglutide in short-term weight loss19:16 A comparative study, presented at ESGE Days 2026, has found that endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is associated with significantly greater short-term weight loss than oral semaglutide in adults with obesity. New mechanism to enhance precision in cancer drug development18:12 Researchers at The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) have identified how a key enzyme called ATR protects DNA from breaking when cells copy damaged genetic material, a discovery that could affect how certain cancer drugs are developed. Psilocybin offers fast-acting alternative to traditional antidepressants18:12 A single dose of the psychedelic substance psilocybin can provide rapid relief from depressive symptoms – within just a few days. This is shown by the first randomised, double-blind study in Sweden of psilocybin for depression. The effect persisted for over three months, according to researchers at Karolinska Institutet. Addressing depression and anxiety in primary care improves chronic pain management17:08 A study published this month in the American Journal of Managed Care explores how integrating behavioral health care into primary care can improve outcomes and be cost-effective for adults with depression, anxiety and chronic pain who are on long-term opioid therapy. New guidelines for identifying and treating high-risk IEC-HS patients16:36 Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has revolutionized the treatment of hematologic malignancies, offering durable responses for patients with otherwise refractory disease. However, its clinical success is accompanied by a spectrum of immune-related toxicities, which remain a major challenge in practice. ANU researchers map hidden cellular networks to better understand diseases16:04 A new nanoscopy technique developed at The Australian National University (ANU) has uncovered hidden networks used for communication between cells, opening new ways to understand human diseases. New CRISPR breakthrough promises more affordable disease diagnostics15:32 A team of engineers at the University of Florida has developed a new form of CRISPR technology that could make diagnostics and treatments safer, more precise, and more affordable, while opening the door to entirely new ways of controlling disease. How exercise influences cancer cell viability15:00 This interview uncovers how exercise may reduce cancer cell viability, with insights into adipose interactions and innovative 3D culture systems. |
