Washington [US], April 8 (ANI): Cancer doctors may soon have a new tool for treating melanoma and other types of cancer, thanks to work being done by researchers at the University of Colorado Cancer Center who claimed to have found a drug that can reduce inflammation and the resultant tumour expansion.

By inhibiting NLRP3, the researchers found, they can reduce inflammation and the resultant tumour expansion.
