Immunotherapy Could Be Boosted by Blocking the Removal of Cancer RNA

The immune system is capable of identifying and attacking cancer cells in the body. This process depends on the tumor producing damaged RNA, which then sticks to cell surfaces and provides the antigens that the body identifies as foreign and therefore targets. However, a natural mechanism within the body that removes faulty RNA ironically aids many cancers to avoid detection and therefore limit immune system responses to the disease. Now, a new preclinical study has found that targeting and blocking this clean-up mechanism can allow cancer antigens to express on tumor cells and allow the immune system to quickly identify and attack them. The study was conducted by a University…

Shares of Health Insurers Rally After CMS Bumps Up 2027 Rates

The shares of health insurers in the U.S. recorded gains after the Trump administration announced 2027 payment rate increases for Medicare Advantage that were higher than what had been proposed back in January. That improved rate would increase payments to these firms by about $13bn in the coming fiscal year 2027. In January when the federal government revealed that it would be increasing these payments by 0.09%, the insurance firms took a hit to their stock prices because this rate was much lower than had been expected. Investors viewed that small increase as additional pressure on already tight margins, but the surprise announcement of about 2.8% extra payments to MA firms covering older…

From Big Data to Better Drugs: How AI-Driven Platforms Are Changing Cancer Research

Cancer research often relies on massive and complex datasets, which can take time and effort to sift through manually. The proprietary PDAOAI platform from Oncotelic Therapeutics helps with this problem as it was designed to analyze large biomedical datasets to extract meaningful signals and help researchers. The company has also curated a detailed TGF-β literature corpus containing 125,000+ PubMed abstracts that represents all of the scientific knowledge related to TGF-β. This has now expanded to >20M abstracts representing the totality of scientific literature. Cancer research is crucial for understanding, diagnosing, treating, and preventing the disease. However, this research often relies on large…

Study Explores Whether a Common Vitamin Could Fight Brain Cancer

Researchers at the University of Calgary in Canada are conducting further trials after early studies revealed that vitamin B3, or niacin, holds promise in restoring immune function in the fight against glioblastoma, a brain cancer that grows aggressively and is hard to treat. For over two decades, no significant advancement has been made to improve treatment outcomes in patients with glioblastoma. Treatments like radiation, surgery and chemotherapy help, but the tumors regrow and survival times are dismal. The team at the University of Calgary wanted to establish whether vitamin B3 in high doses may boost treatment outcomes when used alongside current treatment approaches. The scientists want to find out whether this…

The next four biggest sources of worry for Americans were connected to economic issues. Those policy issues are the state of the economy, concerns about inflation in the country, spending by…
