Gene therapy for muscular dystrophy fixes frail muscle cells in animal model, Stanford study finds
A new gene therapy technique that has shown promise in skin disease and hemophilia might one day be useful for treating muscular dystrophy, according to a new study by researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine. view more (2005-12-27)
Gene therapy may protect normal tissues during radiation retreatment for lung cancer
Gene therapy could be used as an agent to protect normal tissues, including the esophagus and lung, from damage during a second administration of radiation therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. view more (2005-10-17)
New radiation technique helps brain cancer patients keep their hair
Patients whose cancer has spread to the brain can avoid typical hair loss (alopecia) when treated with newer radiation techniques, thereby improving their quality of life while still controlling their cancer. view more (2005-10-17)
Should older men be screened for prostate cancer?
Screening for prostate cancer in older men has been problematic. While this form of cancer can be fatal, it often progresses so slowly that men are more likely to die from some other disease. Aggressive treatments such as radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy may eradicate the cancer but have negativ view more (2006-05-02)

Mount Sinai School of Medicine researchers cured PKU in mice with new gene therapy technique. view more (2005-10-11)
Slipping past the blood brain barrier: Research shows potential treatment for brain cancer
A compound that kills cancer can sneak past the blood brain barrier, which protects the brain from foreign substances, to do its work in fighting a particularly invasive brain cancer. view more (2005-08-23)
New drug lets thyroid cancer patients avoid nasty side effects during treatment
A multicenter international study, including Johns Hopkins, has found that after surgery for thyroid cancer, giving genetically engineered human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) before radioiodine treatment avoids the previous need to stop thyroid replacement therapy and the miserable side effects that go with it. view more (2006-01-10)
