Beyond Boundaries: Revolutionary CAR-T Therapies Pave Way to Conquer Solid Tumors
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is becoming an increasingly important part of the cancer treatment landscape, with a growing number of clinical trials investigating its use across a range of cancer types. To date, the FDA has approved six...
For those who have been through it, a rescue study transition from one contract research organization (CRO) to another can be a difficult ordeal, often accompanied by logistical hurdles and communication challenges.
9 Tips for Designing and Operationalizing Early-Stage Precision Oncology Studies
Traditionally, early-stage clinical trials focus on toxicity assessment and dose selection. Today, a growing number of Phase 1/2a trials are designed to draw inference about preliminary response rates due, in part, to the use of biomarkers and adaptive design approaches...
Cancer is one of the most scientifically complex and dynamic diseases. Even with significant advances in our understanding of the genetic and molecular mechanisms that lead to cancer, only 10 percent of approved oncology drugs demonstrate an overall survival benefit.1...
The Rise of Radiotherapeutics: Brief History and Best Practices for Clinical Trials
Radiation therapy was first used to treat cancer more than a century ago, and nearly half of all cancer patients still receive it at some point during their treatment.1 Historically, most radiation therapy was given by delivering ionizing beams of...
Premier Perspective on Biomarkers in Oncology
In this era of precision medicine, biomarkers play a critical role in the rational development of novel therapies. With advances in both our understanding of cancer pathophysiology and tumor profiling technology, biomarkers can now be used to provide important insights...
Antibody-Drug Conjugates in Oncology: Key Considerations and Future Trends
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are an active area of oncology research, partly due to advances in synthetic biochemistry that may help improve the tissue specificity and cytotoxicity of these complex therapeutics. In recent years, the pace of development for this class...
Background Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women. Despite being highly preventable, over 600,000 women were diagnosed and more than 340,000 died from the disease worldwide in 2020. The majority of cervical cancers are caused by infection...
