Researcher say they have identified a new genetic code that acts as a cancer 'ringleader,' orchestrating the invasion of healthy organs by tumor cells. This discovery could lead to new therapies that target tumors in their earliest stages, according to WRIC. The research team at the Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center is working on a monoclonal antibody that can disrupt this process and empower the body to fight back against cancer. The team is seeking support from the community to advance their research to a phase one clinical trial.
