According to data from an ongoing Phase I/Ib clinical trial (NCT04374877), an innovative IL-27 inhibitor called SRF388 has shown promising results in the treatment of locally advanced or advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which undoubtedly brings new hope for the treatment of lung cancer patients in general!

For patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, the CAR-T cell therapy Ide-cel resulted in a two-fold increase in the average length of time that patients' tumours did not progress compared to standard treatment, with 71% of patients experiencing substantial tumour regression and 39% experiencing complete tumour disappearance.

Recent findings show that the use of cutting-edge immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (referred to as immunotherapy in this article) has increased rapidly over the past decade in the population of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the survival benefit is more pronounced in younger people than in older people, who have limited survival benefit with this therapy.

Scientists from MIT designed a microfluidic device to capture and count circulating plasma cells in small samples of blood. This technique can only be carried out through routine blood drawing, which is expected to reduce the pain of patients' myeloma testing.

A new clinical trial update shows that oxitinib (known as Teresa, or 9291) nearly doubled disease-free survival and halved post-operative recurrence rates in lung cancer patients carrying an early stage EGFR mutation!

The US FDA has accelerated the approval of the new drug Pirtobrutinib for the treatment of relapsed or refractory set of cell lymphomas. The drug led to substantial tumour disappearance in 50% of patients, with 13% of them having complete tumour disappearance.

Data from a study of a cancer vaccine combined with a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor has recently been released, and the treatment has increased the survival of patients with advanced colorectal cancer by more than three times, with some patients surviving for more than 22 months so far.

Bile duct cancer is a rare but highly malignant tumour that occurs in the human bile duct system and has long had a poor prognosis. Now, researchers at University College London and University College London Hospitals, in an international multi-centre trial, have identified potentially good treatments that may radically improve the lives of some patients with bile duct cancer.

Many patients with diabetes are painless when their blood sugar is high, and retinopathy is also silent and imperceptible. Therefore, the majority of diabetes patients should be reminded that after the diagnosis of diabetes, they must regularly screen the sugar network, and early diagnosis and treatment is the key. Early detection, early treatment and regular reexamination can avoid more than 90% of severe visual impairment.

There are many ways to treat prostate cancer and radiation therapy is a common treatment for prostate cancer, but many prostate cancer patients want to know what the side effects of radiation therapy are.
