‘Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer related death worldwide, with a poor median survival time after diagnosis of six months’
Studies on cancer are limited by the threshold at which cellular transformations become clinically detectable. However, the very initial phase on the way to malignancy is histologically invisible, as the process originates from one single cell. In this early phase,…
‘Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are heterogeneous tumors that arise in the upper respiratory tract and are the 6th most common cancer worldwide by incidence’
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths across the globe with more than 1.7 million deaths annually’

Study links secondhand smoke during pregnancy to epigenetic changes in babies
Findings could explain why women of color in particular are more highly exposed to harmful chemicals
Bentham Science has recently launched the new volume of the book, Frontiers in Clinical Drug Research – Anti-Cancer Agents. Frontiers in Clinical Drug Research – Anti-Cancer Agents is a book series essential for pharmaceutical scientists, postgraduate students and researchers seeking…
‘Head and Neck Cancer: Hallmarks of The Inflammation Ecosystem’ aims to highlight the significant roles of inflammation in head and neck malignancy. This entails the screening, diagnosis, treatment as well as follow-up schemes of head and neck cancer patients. Now,…
Updated USPSTF LCS guidelines based solely on age, pack-years, and quit-years perpetuate eligibility disparities among racial and ethnic minorities, although incorporating certain risk prediction models may help reduce such inequalities
The Oncotarget article provides evidence that antitumor activity and prolonged stable disease are achieved with Z-endoxifen despite prior tamoxifen therapy.
