New study finds triple-negative breast cancer tumors with an increase in ...
Quick Glance: Study Reveals Lower Recurrence Risk in Breast Cancer with More Immune Cells
  • A new study suggests that individuals with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and high levels of immune cells in their tumors may have a lower risk of recurrence and better survival rates even without chemotherapy.

  • The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast tissue proved to be a prognostic biomarker for people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer, even in the absence of chemotherapy.

  • Patients with high TILs showed favorable outcomes even without chemotherapy, potentially inspiring future clinical trials to avoid intensive chemotherapy regimens.

  • The results could lead to incorporating TILs in pathology reports of early-stage TNBC globally to inform clinicians and patients when discussing treatment options, without incurring additional costs.

New heated drug baths provide hope for patients with stomach cancer
Quick Glance: New Approach Doubles Survival Rate for Stomach Cancer Patients
  • Mayo Clinic researchers utilized a novel chemotherapy technique to significantly increase the survival rate of patients with stomach cancer and peritoneal metastasis.

  • The study demonstrated that the combined use of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with cisplatin and paclitaxel led to improved survival outcomes.

  • The patients involved in the study were between 46 and 62 years old and had advanced stomach cancer with peritoneal metastasis. They received an average of seven cycles of chemotherapy prior to the surgery.

  • The research team aims to perform similar procedures robotically to enhance recovery and quality of life for patients, with the ultimate goal of preventing the spread of stomach cancer to the peritoneum.
