Immunotherapy beneficial for endometrial, colon cancer patients: Study ...Middle East

New York: Immunotherapy, a highly effective treatment for patients whose cancers harbour mismatch repair deficiency, can also benefit endometrial and colon cancer patients. Endometrial and colon cancer patients often have high rates of mismatch repair deficiency — a genetic state where errors in DNA occur due to a lack of certain repair proteins. This state impairs DNA’s ability to repair itself and can lead to many types of cancer. These patients were missed by immunohistochemistry — the current standard of care test for this condition — but were caught by next-generation sequencing. Previous research has shown that cancer patients with this condition typically respond well to immunotherap
