Immunotherapy boosts chemotherapy in combating stage 3 colon cancer

Dubai, United Arab Emirates; 12 August 2025 — Colon cancer is the third most common cancer in the world. While screening has helped detect and prevent colon cancer from spreading, major advancements in treating colon cancer have lagged.

Approximately 15% of people diagnosed with colon cancer exhibit dMMR and, to date, these tumors appear less sensitive to chemotherapy.
