Advances in Nanomedicine for Cancer Therapy
Molecular Cancer invites submissions to this article collection. This Collection aims to explore innovative research and breakthrough developments in the application of nanotechnology for cancer diagnosis, treatment, and management. The collection is open to submissions till 31 December 2024.
Aging and Cellular Fate: Senescence, Death, or Cancer
Molecular Cancer invites submissions to this article collection. This Collection aims to unravel complex interplay between cellular aging processes, such as senescence and apoptosis, and their impact on cancer initiation, progression, and therapeutic responses. The collection is open to submissions till 31 October 2024.
Molecular understanding and clinical aspects of immunotherapy in the treatment of cancer
Molecular Cancer invites submissions to this article collection. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, adoptive cellular immunotherapy, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors, modulators of tumor microenvironment, and drug resistance mechanisms in immunotherapy. The collection is open to submissions from August 15th 2022 to September 15th 2023.

Phase 2 and 3 studies
Molecular Cancer presents its new Article Collection on "Phase 2 and 3 studies".
Liquid Biopsy at the Frontier of Early Detection, Prognosis and Cancer Treatments
This special issue published by Molecular Cancer focuses on the clinical aspects of liquid biopsies, in particular validation of novel biomarkers that may serve as signature for non-invasive early detection of cancerous cells, predict patients' risks of disease progression and response to specific therapies.
Genome Editing and the Future of Personalized and Targeted Cancer Medicine
Molecular Cancer is excited to present a series of original research and review articles related to genome editing and reprogramming.

Featured Article: Comprehensive review of CRISPR-based gene editing: mechanisms, challenges, and applications in cancer therapy
The CRISPR system is a revolutionary genome editing tool that has the potential to revolutionize the field of cancer research and therapy. The ability to precisely target and edit specific genetic mutations that drive the growth and spread of tumors has opened up new possibilities for the development of more effective and personalized cancer treatments.
In this review, the authors will discuss the different CRISPR-based strategies that have been proposed for cancer therapy, including inactivating genes that drive tumor growth, enhancing the immune response to cancer cells, repairing genetic mutations that cause cancer, and delivering cancer-killing molecules directly to tumor cells.
CAHON: Stop hate crimes and racism
The Chinese American Hematologist and Oncologist Network (CAHON) has published an important and timely Editorial in the Journal of Hematology & Oncology. Molecular Cancer is proud to stand with them in denouncing in the strongest terms all forms of discrimination and crimes against any racial/ethnic group, including Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, and to call on our readers to pursue racial equality and tolerance in the USA and beyond.
