Cancer research is quickly advancing, bringing us closer to treating it as a manageable condition, and this article offers 60 insights on aspects such as genetic editing, AI’s role in detection, genetic vulnerability, and the effects of alcohol on cancer patients. Across diverse areas, prominent advancements include potential universal CAR T-cell therapy through CRISPR, showing promise in rapidly eliminating tumors in mice, and the notable ENLACE study that explores molecular features of colorectal tumors in Hispanics and Latinos. Engineered oncolytic viruses paired with an immune checkpoint inhibitor have led to significant tumor shrinkage. However, AI for cancer detection requires improvements to become effective. Overdiagnosis and alcohol consumption implications present substantial challenges. Pharmacological advancements like new compounds and modified use of drugs like quizartinib and atorvastatin offer hope. The genetic blueprint of cancer can lead to personalized therapies, but underutilized germline testing is a hurdle to overcome.
