Oncotarget Launches Special Collection on Skin Cancer
Skin cancer is common but preventable with UV exposure being a major risk factor. Basal cell carcinoma is the most treatable, while melanoma is the most serious due to its tendency to spread. 30% of melanoma cases may not be related to UV exposure. Oncotarget's special collection focuses on skin cancer research.

Oncotarget: A New Class of Radiosensitizers for Glioblastoma
Researchers at Yale University created a new class of radiosensitizers for glioblastoma based on mibefradil, with improved potency and reduced off-target effects. They synthesized and tested 140 analogs, selecting top 12 for further in vivo studies. These analogs were shown to cross the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in mouse brain tissue, offering potential for enhanced radio sensitization in treating glioblastoma.

Oncotarget: Midostaurin Drug Sensitivity Ex Vivo in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Researchers from Knight Cancer Institute and Oregon Health and Science University conducted a study on midostaurin drug sensitivity in FLT3 mutated and wild-type acute myeloid leukemia patients. They identified genomic markers that predicted response to midostaurin, with a focus on ex vivo drug sensitivity screenings. The study aimed to understand the impact of different genomic alterations on midostaurin response, particularly in FLT3-ITD mutations.
