Hyperthermia Improves Response Rates in Recurrent Cancers
Clinical studies show that the application of heat to tumors, particularly superficial ones, in combination with radiation produces a better response than radiation alone. The procedure helps address the limitations of repeat radiation for many patients by effectively increasing radiation dose without substantially increasing side effects.
Tiny Nanoparticles May Make Huge Impact in Cancer Medicine
Submicroscopic nanoparticles may help overcome the obstacles that hamper traditional anti-cancer drugs. Their size and other unique properties enable targeted drug delivery to hard-to-access tumors, as well as aiding tumor boundary visualization.

Research Shows HDL Has Cancer-Fighting Ability
Apolipoprotein A1, a major component of HDL, blocks metastatic malignant melanoma and lung cancer through multiple pathways. ApoA1 injections not only inhibit tumor growth and progression in mice, but spur tumor and metastases regression.
Genetic Advances Fuel New Hope in Fight Against Myeloid Leukemias
Cleveland Clinic researchers have identified genetic mutations in a subset of leukemia patients. The mutations potentially can be targeted with drugs, introducing the prospect of personalized treatments for these cancers.
Clinical Trial Assesses Next-Generation Cancer Genomic Test
Cleveland Clinic oncologists are evaluating a genomic test that looks for 236 genes implicated in cancer. A key question the clinical study will try to answer is how well the broad genomic screen works in real-world settings.
