A new MSK study by Dr. Zsofia Stadler & Dr. Luis Diaz Jr. found that limiting genetic testing to patients under 50 would have missed 72% of those with inherited cancer mutations. Knowing about these mutations can help guide treatment & help people understand cancer risk. bit.ly/4yLPpwY

MSK scientists from the Scott Lowe Lab and the Daniel Heller Lab engineered nanoparticles to target cells driving scarring around many liver and lung tumors. In mice, this reduced scarring and helped immunotherapy shrink tumors that resisted treatment.
