Lungs with tumors (IMAGE)
Caption
Tumors (yellow) pervade the lungs of mice genetically prone to small cell lung cancer (left) on this computed tomography scan. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and colleagues have found that treating such mice with a double-barreled approach — a chemotherapy drug plus blocking resistance — makes the tumors virtually disappear (right). The findings open up a pathway to better therapies for one of the least treatable forms of cancer.
