Cancer
MONDO:0004992A tumor composed of atypical neoplastic, often pleomorphic cells that invade other tissues. Malignant neoplasms often metastasize to distant anatomic sites and may recur after excision. The most common malignant neoplasms are carcinomas (adenocarcinomas or squamous cell carcinomas), Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas, leukemias, melanomas, and sarcomas.
Also known as: CA, cancer, cell type cancer, malignancy, malignant growth, malignant neoplasm, malignant neoplasm (disease), malignant neoplastic disease

Radical new schedule aims to cure High-Risk ewing sarcoma
Cure Recruiting nowThis study tests a new treatment schedule for people with metastatic Ewing sarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer. The approach uses an intense first attack on cancer cells, followed by targeted strikes and long-term maintenance to wipe out remaining cells. The goal is a cure. The…

Engineered t cells target FLT3 in Hard-to-Treat leukemia
Cure Recruiting nowResearchers are testing a new cell therapy called anti-FLT3 CAR-T (HG-CT-1) in adults and children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or stopped responding to standard treatment. The study is a Phase 1 dose-escalation trial, meaning its first goal is to find out…
