DKG certifies MHH Centre for Familial Breast and Ovarian Cancer
DKG certifies excellent quality of care for women at increased risk of breast and/or ovarian cancer If there is a high incidence of breast and/or ovarian cancer in the family or if women develop the disease at a young age, this is usually due to hereditary causes.

Infectious agent offers protection against liver cancer
Joint study by MHH and HZI: vaccine proves safe and effective against liver fibrosis and liver cancer Liver cancer is the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. So far, the treatment options for two types of liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), have been inadequate, while the number of new cases has been rising.

HANSE Study at the MHH: Thanks to early detection, a patient with lung cancer is now on the path to recovery
,,I had no recognizable symptoms" 14. Detecting lung cancer at an early stage: the HANSE Study, sponsored by the German Center for Lung Research (DZL) and the Lung Ambition Alliance, as the largest German early detection program, makes this its goal.

Rapid therapeutic approaches against viral diseases
Research team with new development pipeline for RNA-based drugs successful in Europe-wide competition 08. Viruses are a major problem for human health worldwide - and not just since the outbreak of the SARS-CoV2 pandemic. Despite successful vaccine development, there are still no effective drugs for most viral diseases.

Help for heart failure? MHH cardiology investigates the effect of digitoxin
Researchers include the 1000th patient in multicentre study Can digitoxin, an active ingredient from foxglove leaves, help patients with heart failure? Many things point to this, but it has not yet been scientifically investigated and proven.

Researchers classify disease severity of patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome for the first time
International team takes important step towards better understanding the manifestations of the hereditary disease Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is associated with a dramatically increased lifelong risk of a broad spectrum of cancers and is caused by pathogenic variants in the TP53 gene.

Individualised immunosuppression improves prognosis for liver transplant patients
Regular biopsies lead to less immunosuppression and fewer side effects Stand: 01. After a liver transplant, patients have to take immune-suppressing drugs for the rest of their lives.

New test to make gene therapy safer
SAGA detects tumour potential of viral vectors for blood stem cells When the causes of serious diseases are based on a defective gene, medicine relies on gene therapy. In this strategy, defect-free genes are introduced into the body with the help of certain viruses. In this way, individual forms of congenital blindness, hereditary muscular atrophy or certain diseases of the blood and immune system can already be treated today.
