The main aim of staging prostate cancers is to aid the health care professionals to determine a patient’s prognosis.
It can be assumed that a more advanced clinical stage may point towards the greater risk of the relapse of prostate cancer after treatment. But on the contrary researchers have found that clinical stage is of questionable utility for predicting disease recurrence after surgical …

There is already a protein that is capable of stopping the spread of breast cancer cells; now the scientist’s believe the very same therapy could lead to the process of preventing or limiting the spread of the disease. They believe that metastasis can be prevented by this newly discovered protein.
Andrew Craig, lead researcher and a professor in Queen’s Department of Biochemistry and Cancer Research Institute explains that cancer researchers want to design new therapeutic strategies in which the metastasis (spreading stage of cancer) can be blocked.
If the primary tumor is …
A new study published early online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society where they have confirmed that there have been recent reports that showed that there is a higher prevalence of cancer among Gay men in comparison with the heterosexual men, similarly lesbian and bisexual female cancer survivors reported lower levels of health than heterosexual female cancer survivors.
