Researchers in Canada have developed a model to simulate the cost of active surveillance versus immediate treatment among low-risk prostate cancer patients.
Researchers have identified that other than clogging the arteries, LDL can also promote metastatic cancer cells, which break away from the parent tumor, to reattach at distant site.
Cancer treatments are evolving to work more effectively, but consequently, their costs are rising. In 2013, cancer medicine spending reached $91 billion globally-up from $71 billion in 2008.
The molecular diagnostic testing company Myriad Genetics announced that it had signed a 3-year contract with UnitedHealthcare to make their myRisk cancer susceptibility test accessible to patients.

Patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck treated with hyperfractionated radiation therapy (HFX) experienced improved local-regional control and, with patients censored at five years, improved overall survival with no increase in late toxicity.
Demcizumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets the Notch signaling pathway, has been awarded an orphan drug status by the FDA in the treatment of pancreatic cancer.
