Eddie Webster+FollowHow a local legacy is fueling cancer breakthroughsA $1.2 million donation from BSI Engineering to the University of Cincinnati Cancer Center is doing more than honoring Bryan Speicher’s memory—it’s powering real progress in pancreatic cancer research. This partnership has already sparked over 15 research projects and attracted major grants, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in cancer treatment. What’s striking is how one person’s spirit of generosity is now driving hope for countless families. It’s a reminder of the impact local businesses and personal stories can have on our community’s health. How do you think philanthropy can best support medical breakthroughs? #Safety #Cincinnati #CancerResearch00Share
wilsonjames+FollowPancreatic Cancer Breakthrough?Amplia Therapeutics just leveled up their fight against pancreatic cancer! Their FAK inhibitor, narmafotinib, showed real promise in early tests on patient-derived cancer cells. Now, they’re teaming up again with Next & Bio to see if combining it with new kRAS inhibitors can pack an even bigger punch. With kRAS mutations in 90% of pancreatic cancers, this could be a game-changer for future treatments. Fingers crossed for more good news at their upcoming conference! #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch783Share
shermandarlene+FollowMorning Cancer Treatments Work Better?Wild new study alert: when you get immunochemotherapy for advanced lung cancer actually matters—a lot. Turns out, people treated before 3 p.m. lived almost twice as long as those treated later in the day! Experts think it’s all about syncing with your body’s natural clock (circadian rhythm). It’s a simple tweak that could mean big results—no new drugs needed. Personalized ‘chronotherapy’ could be the next big thing in cancer care. Who knew timing was everything? #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch30Share
Kristi Key+FollowLilly’s Big Bet: Next-Gen Cancer Cures?Imagine a world where cancer drugs hit patients earlier—before the disease spreads. That’s exactly what Lilly’s oncology chief is aiming for, thanks to a massive investment boost from their blockbuster weight loss meds. They’re running huge trials, like the 8,000-patient EMBER-4, and pushing new tech like radioligand therapy. The goal? More cures, faster, and for more people. It’s a bold move that could totally change the cancer treatment game. Who else is rooting for this? #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch00Share
Donald Jones DDS+FollowNew doors open for cancer research in NM & AZA major boost for future cancer researchers just landed in New Mexico and Arizona! Thanks to a National Cancer Institute grant, the STEAM program is giving students at UNM, NMSU, Burrell College, NAU, and U of A free access to career mentoring, travel scholarships, and hands-on training. This means more local talent can stay in the Southwest, build connections, and make a real impact on cancer care right where they live. How do you think programs like this could change healthcare in our communities? #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch00Share
Ryan Lewis+FollowMorning Cancer Treatments = Major Survival BoostWild new research says timing really is everything—at least for cancer immunotherapy. Patients who got their treatments before 3pm had a whopping 63% lower risk of death compared to those treated later in the day. The earlier, the better! Scientists think our body clocks (circadian rhythms) might make a big difference in how well these meds work. If you or someone you know is facing cancer, you might want to fight for that early morning slot! #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch20Share
April Anderson+FollowCancer Treatment Timing Hack?Turns out, when you get your cancer immunotherapy could seriously matter. A new study found lung cancer patients who got their IV meds before 3 p.m. had way better survival rates—like, 63% lower risk of death! It’s all about syncing with your body’s natural clock (circadian rhythms). No extra cost, just a simple schedule tweak that could make a huge difference. Who knew timing could be this powerful? #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch00Share
shermandarlene+FollowCancer Breakthrough: Off-the-Shelf Cells!Imagine being told your blood cancer is basically unbeatable—then a new therapy comes along and flips the script. Scientists have used gene-edited donor immune cells (BE-CAR7) to help kids and adults with super-rare, aggressive leukemia stay cancer-free. Nearly two-thirds of patients in the trial are still in remission, and side effects were pretty chill. This could be a total game-changer for people who had almost no options left. Science is wild! #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch60Share
Charles Christensen+FollowExercise Literally Starves Cancer CellsTurns out, exercise doesn’t just burn calories—it can actually starve cancer cells! A new Yale study found that when mice exercised, their muscles hogged all the glucose, leaving cancer cells with barely any fuel to grow. Mice that worked out had tumors up to 60% smaller than their lazy counterparts. The wild part? This effect was seen in both breast cancer and melanoma. Scientists are now looking to see if this works in humans too. Stay tuned! #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch110Share
Michelle Welch+FollowCancer Drug Trial Delivers Major HopeFaron Pharma just dropped some wild early trial results for their new cancer drug combo—patients with tough-to-treat bone marrow disorders are living way longer than expected! Median survival jumped from 5-6 months to 14.5 months, and some newly diagnosed folks with a tricky gene mutation saw a 70% complete remission rate. Plus, over half became transfusion-free. No treatment-related deaths, and the safety profile looks great. Next up: a pivotal phase III trial. Fingers crossed! #Health #BodyHealth #CancerResearch150Share
