In a previous article, cancer reversion was introduced as the idea that malignant cells can be pushed back toward a more normal, less aggressive state instead of simply being destroyed. That earlier discussion focused mainly on epigenetic plasticity, differentiation therapy, and microenvironmental modulation as ways to coax cancer cells into behaving more like healthy tissue. […]
LAST WEEK TODAY! A summary of what was published on ProstateWarriors.com during the past week Hi fellow warriors! Here we are! Newsletter number 52, and we’re ready to start counting from 1 again! I have to say, this week felt like a holiday even for research and researchers (ah, those lazy youngsters… hahaha). I struggled a bit […]
A new clinical trial is exploring allogeneic CAR-NK cell therapy targeting PSMA for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, or mCRPC. This exploratory study (not yet recruiting as of late 2025), aims to assess the safety profile alongside early signs of efficacy in men whose disease has progressed despite hormone suppression and other therapies. Unlike […]
Super-adjuvant nanoparticles are a new type of cancer vaccine that works much better than older versions. Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst created them. Their main study came out in October 2025 in Cell Reports Medicine. These tiny particles fight cancer by waking up the body’s immune system in a smart way. They mix […]
SGLT2 inhibitors, familiar as diabetes medications like dapagliflozin and canagliflozin, show promise against prostate cancer (and other solid tumors) through targeted metabolic disruption that exploits cancer cells’ addiction to glucose. Prostate tumors frequently overexpress SGLT2 transporters, enabling excessive glucose uptake that fuels the Warburg effect, where cancer cells convert glucose to lactate even in oxygen-rich […]
The Japanese tree frog, Dryophytes japonicus, has become the source of a striking experimental cancer approach via a gut bacterium, Ewingella americana, that can completely eradicate colorectal tumors in mice. Amphibians and reptiles rarely develop cancer, so researchers systematically screened 45 bacterial strains from frogs, newts, and lizards; nine showed anti-tumor activity, but E. americana […]
LAST WEEK TODAY! A summary of what was published on ProstateWarriors.com during the past week Hi fellow warriors! I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas! We’ve almost reached Newsletter number 52, and new trials and research keep coming in. Stay strong and fight on! As usual, we also have a podcast if you prefer to […]
A team of scientists in China has found a way to turn the same type of cells that cause allergies into a new kind of weapon against cancer. Their work suggests that the body’s fastest immune reaction, normally blamed for hives and asthma, could be redirected to wake up the immune system inside tumors and […]
A Phase 3 clinical trial is evaluating Inavolisib, a precision oncology drug, for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).. The InavoPC trial offers a distinct approach: combining a PI3K inhibitor with continued hormonal therapy to address a fundamental biological mechanism of treatment resistance. Inavolisib is a highly selective inhibitor of the PI3Kα kinase enzyme. […]
GVV858 is a CDK2 inhibitor designed to block this escape route. Instead of adding another hormone therapy when resistance develops, it targets the cell cycle machinery that CCNE1-amplified tumors depend on. The drug works on the molecular brakes that control when cells divide, rather than trying to manipulate hormone levels further. CCNE1 amplification allows cancer […]
