Dr. Nima Sharifi and a team of researchers uncovered how tumors circumvent prostate cancer therapy and identified a potential window of time after treatment when tumors may be responsive to immunotherapy.
Dr. Sharifi and collaborators identified choline, betaine and phenylacetylglutamine as nutrients and gut microbiome metabolites associated with increased risk for lethal prostate cancer, suggesting dietary interventions may help reduce disease risk.
Exciting investigation and groundbreaking discovery happens every day at Cleveland Clinic. Join our team of expert researchers at the Genitourinary Malignancies Research Center.
