Detection of Pancreatic Cancer Using a Methylation-Specific PCR-Based Multi-Cancer Early Detection Test
Context: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy often diagnosed at advanced stages due to the lack of early clinical symptoms. DNA methylation alterations arise early in PDAC tumorigenesis and may serve as promising biomarkers for blood-based cancer detection. Objective: To evaluate the performance of EPISEEK, a laboratory-developed blood-based multi-cancer early detection (MCED) assay, for detecting PDAC across disease stages.
Matched pancreatic cancer liver metastatic model system reveals cancer cell-dependent organotropism and site-specific tumor microenvironment reflective of human disease
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a deadly, highly metastatic disease, driven by an interplay between cancer cells and the metastatic site-specific microenvironment. However, pre-clinical models that robustly capture these interactions within the context of matched primary and metastatic tumors are limited. Here, we present a novel transplant model system for matched pancreas and liver tumors to study PDAC metastatic progression.

Smoking is down but why are more Hong Kong women getting lung cancer?
Smoking is down but why are more Hong Kong women getting lung cancer? A 20 per cent rise in lung cancer cases among Hong Kong women prompts calls for wider screening, with genetics and cooking fumes cited as key risks In the second of a six-part Health Matters wellness series on cancer in Hong Kong, Elizabeth Cheung examines the rise of lung cancer among women, the risk factors beyond smoking and growing calls for earlier detection. Rates of new lung cancer cases among Hong Kong women have...
Cancer breakthrough as new 'game-changing' pill could DOUBLE survival time for most deadly diseases
Cancer breakthrough as new 'game-changing' pill could DOUBLE survival time for most deadly diseases Prostate cancer patients normally have a devastatingly short life expectancy - but the new daily pill being offered in clinical trials could change that A “game-changing” daily pill helped almost double survival time for patients with the most deadly major cancer. Pancreatic cancer patients on the drug lived for twice as long as those on chemotherapy. The pill’s success is thought to be the...

GLP-1 drugs, including Ozempic, may have a beneficial effect across many types of cancer
GLP-1 drugs, including Ozempic, may have a beneficial effect across many types of cancer More than two dozen studies suggest the treatments are linked to lower cancer risk, reduced metastasis and improved survival, though researchers say trials are needed to confirm any anti-cancer benefit. A growing body of evidence suggests that popular GLP-1 drugs, widely used for weight loss and diabetes, can provide protection against many types of cancer. More than two dozen studies presented over the...
