Protein Signature Associated with Outcome in Metastatic Melanoma

Clinical results in metastatic melanoma with the antibodies nivolumab and pembrolizumab to anti– programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) have led to clinically and statistically significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival compared to alternative first- and second-line therapies. More...

Lipid Biomarker Concentrations Associated with CVD Risk

Circulating concentrations of lipid biomarkers are consistently associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and thus are considered major indicators of metabolic health, but the evidence for a relationship with cancer risk, however, is not entirely consistent. More...
