The world of medicine continues to surprise — in July, major breakthroughs were made that are already influencing patients’ lives and the future of therapy. We apologize for not publishing this post last month, and here is the update.

► 1. New anti-cancer drugs fast-tracked by FDA
In July, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted fast track status to several drugs for lung and pancreatic cancer, significantly speeding up their availability for patients.

► 2. Alzheimer’s reversal using cancer drugs
Researchers discovered that approved anticancer medications can “restart” brain functions in Alzheimer’s patients, reducing pathological changes and improving cognitive abilities.

► 3. AI predicts tumor aggressiveness
Artificial intelligence has begun analyzing tumor stemness — a key indicator of future aggressiveness and relapse. This enables building more personalized cancer treatment plans.

► 4. AI for heart analysis
New algorithms detect early signs of cardiovascular diseases from ECG and imaging data with unprecedented accuracy, improving the diagnosis of heart attacks and heart failure.

► 5. Modeling cancer cell behavior
The University of Maryland developed a predictive tool that models interactions between tumor cells. This helps forecast disease progression and identify the most effective therapy.

► 6. Revolution in melanoma therapy
Clinical trials combining nivolumab and ipilimumab demonstrated high effectiveness in treating late-stage melanoma. This marks the dawn of personalized cellular immunotherapy.

These discoveries confirm that medicine is moving toward precise, personalized, and preventive approaches.
