Title: Recent Cancer Research Updates from NCI

A new study suggests that for women in their 70s and older, routine mammography screening may lead to substantial overdiagnosis. The study adds to the debate about mammography benefits and risks in older women.

Another study found that taking statins reduced the risk of heart changes linked to heart failure in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma. The findings suggest statins may help protect the heart during lymphoma treatment.

Research also examined whether HPV testing is needed for those over age 65. The results indicate that for some older women, getting the HPV test may help prevent cervical cancer. The study provides evidence that HPV testing may be beneficial even in older populations.

These studies highlight recent cancer research advances from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). NCI leads and coordinates the National Cancer Program, which conducts and supports cancer research across the country. NCI is part of the National Institutes of Health.
