Pediatric brain tumors are the most common form of solid tumors in children. One area of medical advances showing promise in the treatment of brain tumors is gene therapy. There are many pre-clinical studies around the world to optimize gene therapy.

Pediatric brain tumors are the second most common cancer of childhood. While it is unclear why most brain tumors form, exposure to radiation and inheritance of genetic mutations have been found to correlate with an increased risk of brain tumors.

Aplastic anemia is an insidious disease that produces very few early symptoms, but the sooner it is diagnosed, the better the chances for recovery.

There are different types of pediatric brain tumors, which are the second most common type of cancers. In this article, the rare brain tumors brainstem gliomas, choroid plexus tumor, primitive neuroectodermal tumors, and craniopharyngioma are discussed.

Pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) are the second most common cancer of childhood. PBTs are treated with specific chemotherapeutic drugs. The administration of chemotherapy can have long-term side effects for patients and further research needs to conducted.

Pediatric Brain Tumors (PBTs), are second most common childhood cancer. Radiation therapy utilizes x-rays and small particles which destroys cancer cells. Radiation therapy is an aggressive way of treating PBTs, and should be avoided in younger children.

A recent study has shown that alternating between flooding and starving the body of testosterone helps to manage patients diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer.

Melanoma can be a potentially fatal skin cancer, especially when the disease is aggressive due to gene mutations. Many first-line therapies exist for treating this cancer, but no studies were done to compare the available treatments options.

People who have cancer look for every kind of treatment they can find. Sometimes cancer immunotherapy is the answer. Here is a brief introduction to what this kind of cancer treatment is, and how it works.
