New research has found amyloids in non-muscle-invasive & muscle-invasive #bladdercancer cell lines, with a positive correlation between amyloid presence and tumour stage. #medicalinnovation #HIVEC #CombatCancer

Recent research published in Gut has found a strong correlation between #colorectalcancer risk and the Western diet – high in ultra-processed foods and inflammatory seed ("vegetable") oils. An entirely modifiable risk factor 😒 doi:10.1136/gutjnl-2024-332535 #HIPEC #CombatCancer

We believe the new @HIVEC_HEAT phase 3 trial will show #HIVEC® to be a game-changer for BCG-unresponsive NMIBC patients, with smaller studies already demonstrating it to be an effective, safe, well-tolerated and highly cost-effective alternative to RC. #WorldCancerDay

The latest report from @AmericanCancer forecasts 2m new cancer cases & 618k cancer deaths in the US in 2025. The good news: cancer mortality rates continue to decline, averting nearly 4.5m deaths since 1991 due to less smoking, earlier detection & improved treatment.

Fantastic to see the new DNA test described in Gut offering real hope to those at risk of bowel cancer, of which over 1.9 million new cases are diagnosed worldwide every year. A great start to 2025! ▶️ doi:10.1136/gutjnl-2024-333353 #medicalinnovation #HIPEC #CombatCancer

Is it time for the standard response to haematuria (either micro or macroscopic) to be endoscopy and ultrasound or CT scan, as per, for example, the recommendations in the Czech Republic? #HIVEC #CombatCancer

@HIVEC_HEAT is a multi-centre, single-arm interventional trial across 25 NHS hospitals in the United Kingdom (UK), trialling the use of #HIVEC® with MMC for BCG-unresponsive #bladdercancer. Watch this space for updates! #medicalinnovation #bladdercancer #HIVECHEAT #CombatCancer

While our #bladdercancer focus is on NMIBC, we’re delighted to find out that new research could make diagnosis and treatment of the more aggressive muscle-invasive form of the disease almost 50% faster. ▶️ DOI:10.1200/JCO.23.02398 #medicalinnovation #HIVEC #CombatCancer

A highly sensitive urinary diagnostic kit for #bladdercancer has been developed for home use. In double-blind clinical trials, the kit achieved a sensitivity of 88.8% (compared to around 20% of current commercial tests). ▶️ #medicalinnovation #CombatCancer

New-onset diabetes (NOD) is a known risk factor for #pancreaticcancer, so @theNCI is now enrolling 10k people with NOD into a study to develop a blood test to identify those who may need further tests to check their risk. #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessWeek #HIPEC #CombatCancer
