Immunotherapy’s Hidden Power: Reprogramming Cancer Back to Normal

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. […]

Super-Adjuvant Nanoparticles: Revolutionizing Platform Cancer Vaccination

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 […]

Frog Gut Bacterium Ewingella americana Completely Eradicates Colon Tumors in Mice

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 […]

Allergy Cells to Deliver Oncolytic Viruses or Drugs and to Stimulate the Immune System

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 […]

Researchers Explain How Prostate Cancer Can Survive Androgen Blockade

A research from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center and the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine shows that prostate cancer cells can synthesize androgens through an alternative pathway that does not rely on CYP17A1, the enzyme at the core of virtually all modern androgen deprivation strategies. Instead of flowing through the classical cholesterol → pregnenolone […]

Triaptosis: a New Way to Kill Cancer Using Menadione

A new form of cell death called triaptosis is starting to attract attention as a potential way to treat hard‑to‑kill cancers. The idea behind it is quite simple: instead of trying to push tumor cells into the classic death routes that many of them have already learned to escape, triaptosis hits them somewhere they are […]

CBPD‑409, an Oral CBP/p300 Degrader for Advanced Prostate Cancer

CBPD‑409 is an experimental, oral medicine designed to remove two helper proteins, CBP and p300, that prostate tumors use to turn cancer‑driving genes on. These proteins partner with the androgen receptor (AR), the key signal that fuels most prostate cancers, especially in the advanced, treatment‑resistant setting. By tagging CBP and p300 for destruction, a strategy […]

AB‑3028, a Dual‑antigen AND‑gated, TGF‑β–resistant CAR T Therapy

AB-3028 represents a next-generation approach to solid-tumor CAR T therapy tailored to the unique challenges of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. CAR T cells, transformative in hematologic malignancies, have struggled in solid tumors due to heterogeneous antigen expression, on-target off-tumor risks, suppressive cytokines like TGF-β, and chronic stimulation that drives exhaustion. AB-3028 was engineered to counter […]

A New Weak Spot in Prostate Cancer: Disarming the Androgen Signal by Targeting PTGES3

A new study shows, published on Nature, that a little-known protein called PTGES3 helps prostate cancer cells keep using male hormone signals to grow, even when treatments are trying to shut those signals down. Blocking this helper protein cut off the cancer’s fuel supply in lab tests and slowed tumors in mice, pointing to a […]

News pre|CISION Platform: Delivering Two Complementary Therapies from One Molecule

A novel dual payload peptide drug conjugate technology, known as the pre|CISION® platform, represents an advance in oncology by delivering two complementary anticancer therapies from a single molecule. This approach leverages the fibroblast activation protein (FAP), which is selectively present in the tumor microenvironment, especially in advanced prostate cancer such as castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
