Oncology, Oncohematology, and Nuclear Medicine

 

Materials on advanced methods of cancer treatment were published on the Marus Media website.

 

Among them is treatment with radiopharmaceuticals capable of fighting metastases throughout the body using radiation from specially created isotopes. In Russia, all modern types of radionuclide therapy are available – both in private clinics and in the largest state centers.

 

A special place in nuclear medicine is occupied by theranostics, which is used in prostate cancer. With the help of radiopharmaceuticals, doctors simultaneously diagnose the localization of the tumor and destroy it.

 

Marus Media featured Ilya Timofeev – Director of the ANO "Bureau for Cancer Research" (BUCARE) – about trials of an innovative drug for treating multiple malignant neoplasms. OM-RCA-01 is the world's first drug that selectively blocks the FGFR1 receptor. This receptor is expressed by several types of cancer: kidney, lung, breast and prostate, head and neck.

 

At what stage of development is advanced cellular therapy for oncohematological diseases in Russia – Marus Media examined in an overview of CAR-T therapy.

 

The possibilities of modern surgery for breast reconstruction after mastectomy were revealed by plastic surgeon Olesya Startseva in an expert column.

 

Capabilities of Russian Clinics

 

Throughout 2025, the largest medical centers shared their experience working in high-tech areas. Alexander Vysotsky, head of the embryology laboratory at "Mother and Child", spoke about what domestic embryology laboratories look like today, what challenges stimulate the development of the field, and what are the prospects for Russian developments.

 

The nuances of sports medicine and rehabilitation were revealed by Valery Baryshnikov, head of the sports medicine department at Millenium Clinic. The experience of creating a residential aesthetic medicine clinic was presented by Ramiclinic from St. Petersburg.

 

Obesity Treatment

 

In a special project, Marus Media covered various aspects of obesity therapy and prevention of excess weight. We spoke with bariatric surgeons who not only shared the specifics of obesity surgery, but also analyzed a specific patient case to show what results the operation yielded.

 

A separate topic that gained special popularity in 2024-2025 is pharmacological correction of obesity using modern drugs such as semaglutide and its analogues. In a separate analysis, we described the effectiveness of such therapy and its availability in Russia.

 

Hepatitis D Treatment

 

Hepatitis D is the most aggressive form of viral hepatitis, which until recently had no effective therapy and rapidly progressed to cirrhosis and liver cancer. The situation changed with the emergence of the targeted drug bulevirtide (Myrcludex B/Hepcludex) – the first specific drug against the hepatitis D virus.

 

Russia became one of the first countries where the drug underwent large-scale clinical trials and received registration. Marus Media examined the features of hepatitis D therapy.

 

Telemedicine

 

In a thematic guide, Marus Media explored what real opportunities telemedicine provides to Russian and foreign patients. In the material, we answered key questions: in what cases are online consultations effective, if a diagnosis cannot be made remotely, which specialists can consult remotely, and in what format such appointments take place.
