Newly released map of glioblastoma brain cancer could help researchers find new cures for deadly disease. Read More
Researchers report preoperative nTMS analysis of motor areas improves patient prognosis for malignant brain tumors. Read More
Researchers discover key elements associated with tumor cells binding to blood vessels. The findings could help develop new treatments to halt the development of brain tumors. Read More
A genetic mutation associated with a number of cancers could also be responsible for papillary craniopharyngioma, a rare but debilitating brain tumor, a new study reports. Read More
The epigenetic histone mutation H3.1K27M works in combination with ACVR1 mutations to cause diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma tumors to form and grow quickly. Read More
An experimental nanotechnology drug crosses the blood-brain barrier and targets brain tumor cells, a new study suggests. The drug also blocks the growth of tumor blood vessels. Read More
Combining carboplatin, a common chemotherapy drug, with everolimus, a drug that blocks mTOR, is effective at inducing apoptosis and slowing tumor growth in patients with pediatric low-grade glioma brain cancer. Read More
Researchers have discovered two gene variants that raise the risk of the pediatric cancer neuroblastoma. This is the first study to link known cancer-related genes HACE1 and LIN28B to neuroblastoma. The study broadens understanding of how gene changes may make a child susceptible to this early childhood cancer, as well as causing a tumor to progress. Read More
A new vaccine for glioblastoma brain cancer suspends tumor growth and is well tolerated by patients, according to the results of an early phase clinical trial. Read More
