Promising cancer research: scientists have engineered ready-to-use T cells that attacked solid tumours in laboratory and mouse studies, potentially opening the door to more accessible cell therapies.

Could AI help solve some of cancer’s hardest problems? Arm CEO Rene Haas believes AI could help find a cure within our lifetime as increasingly powerful systems tackle complex cancer biology.
Encouraging progress in lymphoma treatment. CAR T-cell therapy, bispecific antibodies and targeted treatments are giving patients more options, including potentially curative treatments.
A first for breast cancer treatment. The FDA has approved camizestrant for certain patients, using a blood test to detect treatment resistance before it appears on scans.
A major advance for pancreatic cancer. FDA-approved daraxonrasib increased median survival to 13.2 months vs 6.7 months with chemotherapy in a Phase 3 trial.
A new approach to treating advanced breast cancer. The FDA has approved Etcamah after a blood test detects an ESR1 resistance mutation, allowing treatment to change before scans show the cancer progressing.
Six cancer drug approvals in a single month. August brought new FDA-approved treatment options across pancreatic cancer, gastroesophageal cancer, melanoma, multiple myeloma and rare blood cancers.
Encouraging development for daraxonrasib. New trial results suggest the approved pancreatic cancer drug may also have potential against RAS-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer, with tumours shrinking in more than 30% of participants.
A personalised cancer vaccine moves another step closer. A late-stage trial of an mRNA vaccine tailored to each patient’s tumour has shown it can reduce the risk of melanoma returning or spreading.
