Dual Enzyme Blockade Weakens Prostate Cancer Tumors and Enhances Treatment Effectiveness

Researchers have identified two enzymes that serve as critical guardians of prostate cancer cell survival, opening new avenues for enhancing treatment outcomes in one of the most common cancers affecting men worldwide. The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, demonstrates that blocking these molecular chaperones can destabilize cancer cells and […]

Scientists Develop “Velcro” Cancer Treatment That Works Across Many Tumor Types

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed an innovative cancer immunotherapy called GlyTR, a new class of treatment that uses a “velcro-like” mechanism to target sugar molecules abundantly present on cancer cells. Their findings were published in September 2025 in the prestigious journal Cell, marking a significant advancement in cancer immunotherapy. Traditional immunotherapies […]

New Study Uncovers Mechanism Behind T-Cell Exhaustion, Offering Hope for Prostate Cancer Immunotherapy

A study from The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center has illuminated a critical reason why cancer immunotherapy often fails: T-cell exhaustion driven by a novel stress pathway called TexPSR (proteotoxic stress response in T-cell exhaustion). Published in the prestigious journal Nature, this discovery reveals a proteotoxic shock in exhausted T cells caused by the […]

APVO442: A Promising Preclinical Candidate in the Fight Against Prostate Cancer

A Seattle-based biotech, is stepping up with APVO442, a promising preclinical bispecific antibody aimed at transforming prostate cancer treatment by unleashing the body’s immune system against tumors with greater precision and fewer side effects. Built on proprietary ADAPTIR-FLEX platform, APVO442 is designed to target prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a protein highly expressed on prostate cancer […]
