The study, published in Nature Communications, used family studies and genetically engineered mice to understand how gene ...

HYDRACs are a class of proteomimetic polymers designed to mark harmful proteins, like MYC and KRAS, for destruction rather than merely block their activity.

A Nebraska nurse practitioner says a free genetic research study likely saved her life after she learned she carries a BRCA2 gene mutation, despite having little family history of cancer.

KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene across all human cancers. Although different KRAS mutations have long been thought to exert the same cancer-driving effects, a new study led by UT ...

Many women chalk up bloating or stomach changes to menopause — but experts warn these subtle signs are exactly why ovarian cancer is so often diagnosed late. If the risk climbs sharply after 45, how ...

Researchers at the University of Oslo and Oslo University Hospital have developed a promising new immunotherapy targeting the CTNNB1 gene mutation associated with various aggressive cancers like lung ...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted traditional approval to Braftovi (encorafenib) for adult patients ...

A common mutation in the KRAS gene is associated with improved overall survival in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) compared with other variants, in part because the mutation appears to lead to ...

There is no single “right” approach to genetic testing. It’s a personal decision, and what works for me may not work for ...

Hereditary breast cancer results from inherited mutations, primarily in BRCA1 and BRCA2, increasing lifetime cancer risk. Additional genes like TP53, PTEN, PALB2, CHEK2, and ATM also contribute to ...

For most of my life, I thought cancer prevention for men was straightforward: don’t smoke, eat a healthy diet, exercise, manage stress and get regular medical checkups.
