Most-read Cancer Currents posts of 2018 (so far)
National Cancer Institute
Cancer immunotherapy continues to capture the public's interest and researchers' imaginations. That sentiment is reflected in the most popular posts from Cancer Currents for the first half of 2018. Three of the top five posts cover the progress being made in, and the unresolved questions about, immune-based cancer treatments.

In case you missed them, or want to read them again, here are the five most-read posts so far this year.
article thumbnailCan Immunotherapy Succeed in Glioblastoma?
Despite continued efforts to develop new therapies for glioblastoma, none have been able to increase how long patients live. Even so, researchers are hopeful that immunotherapy might be able to reverse that trend.
article thumbnailOncolytic Virus Therapy: Using Tumor-Targeting Viruses to Treat Cancer
A small but growing number of patients with cancer are being treated with viruses that infect and kill tumor cells. Research now suggests that these treatments also work against cancer by spurring an immune response.
article thumbnailStudy Shows Experimental Screening Test Can Detect Endometrial and Ovarian Cancers
Scientists have struggled to come up with a simple test to detect endometrial and ovarian cancers early, when they are most likely to respond to treatment. Can a liquid biopsy test called PapSEEK change that?
article thumbnailCancer Immunotherapy Targets Two Proteins that Block Immune Response
Could a newly developed type of immunotherapy drug, called a Y-trap, be more effective than immune checkpoint inhibitors? Early studies suggest that's a possibility.
article thumbnailLarotrectinib Shows Promise, Regardless of Cancer Type
In a series of three small clinical trials, an investigational targeted drug called larotrectinib shrank tumors in both children and adults with a wide variety of cancer types.
