Study provides new look at why rare cancer often evades treatments

Researchers at Boston Medical Center and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have conducted one of the first-ever analyses of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) at single-cell resolution, unlocking new insights into this rare and often hard-to-treat cancer. The findings represent a tremendous leap forward in understanding why these tumors are largely resistant to immunotherapy and provide key insights that could lead to future treatments.
