A single dose of a new cancer drug made a brain tumor almost disappear – in just five days. Doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital reported “dramatic and rapid” tumor regression in the first patients treated with a next-generation form of CAR T-cell therapy for glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive brain cancers known. The therapy, called CARv3-TEAM-E, was developed to overcome a major hurdle in treating solid tumors: their ability to hide from the immune system. The personalized treatment reprograms a patient’s immune cells to attack the tumor, and in one extraordinary case, nearly eliminated the cancer within just five days. This novel therapy is designed to target multiple features of the tumor at once, a strategy that may help overcome the common challenge of treatment resistance in solid tumors like glioblastoma. Although the tumors eventually returned, the early outcomes were described as unprecedented. One patient saw a 60% reduction in tumor size that lasted for half a year—an impressive result in a cancer known for its aggressiveness. The trial’s success marks a major step forward for immunotherapy in brain cancer and raises new hopes for long-term control or even a cure. Researchers are now working to refine the treatment and extend its effects, with the ultimate goal of turning a once-terminal diagnosis into a survivable condition.




Trump desperate to end war even if it means failing...

Welcome to hell. And this is after they had already cleared the remains of severed limbs from these smouldering ruins in Bucha -- what was left of a Russian column that tried to push through toward Irpin and got destroyed. Though they had forgotten to remove one torn-off leg of a Russian soldier, still in its boot, which gave some journalists a bit of a scare.


@jimalkhalili is one of the most important guys on the BBC and today's 'Life Scientific' on GPS better GNSS systems is yet another example of why. Inter alia we learned about the Brexit hit we took when we had to leave Gallileo, the EU's satellite positioning system in which we'd invested £bns. Pl listen bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
