Blood test detects the return of early-stage breast cancer
Circulating tumor DNA analysis spots stray cells months before scans detect breast cancer recurrence.
Recurrence
Partial versus entire breast radiation does not increase recurrence
Women diagnosed with breast cancer and treated with a one-week regimen of partial breast radiation after tumor removal saw no increase in cancer recurrence or difference in cosmetic outcomes.
Novel tool predicts postoperative liver cancer recurrence after transplant
The risk of disease recurrence in liver cancer patients who have undergone a liver transplant can now be more accurately calculated, thanks to new tool.
Combination therapy can reduce chance of recurrence from small HER2+ breast tumors
Women with stage 1 HER2-positive breast tumors who received a combination of lower-intensity chemotherapy and a targeted drug following surgery were unlikely to suffer cancer recurrence within 3 years of treatment.
Personalized genetic test predicts recurrence risk for prostate cancer
A genetic test has been developed to identify which men are at higher risk for prostate cancer recurrence after localized treatment with surgery or radiotherapy.
Elevated cholesterol associated with prostate cancer recurrence
Findings suggest that elevated levels of cholesterol and triglycerides may be linked with greater risk of the prostate cancer recurrence, but normalization of blood fats may reduce risk.
Limiting carbs may reduce breast cancer recurrence in some women
Reducing carbohydrate intake could reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence among women whose tumor tissue is positive for the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) receptor, according to a new study.
Lowering carb intake could help reduce breast cancer risk
Concerned about the associations between obesity, diabetes, and cancer risk, researchers examined the links between carbohydrate intake and breast cancer risk.
ASCO: Fish and exercise can thwart colon cancer recurrence
The likelihood that patients will suffer a return of colon cancer more than doubles if they eat fish less than twice a week, or if they get less than 60 minutes of moderate exercise a week.
DNA methylation markers ID bladder cancer recurrence
For patients with noninvasive urothelial carcinoma, three DNA methylation markers are able to accurately predict tumor recurrence, according to a study.
