Film Vet Ashaine Briscoe Enters the Spotlight with Quirky, Heartfelt New Shorts
2012-12-09
Filmmaker Ashaine Briscoe has just made her debut as a screenwriter, director, and producer--but to call her a novice would be an incredible oversight. In reality, Briscoe has been working in film for years, developing an almost preternaturally accomplished and diverse resume that includes credits as a Production Assistant, an Art Director, and more. She has worked on TV commercials and music videos, and her keen eye and visual flair have landed her design spots in leading glamour magazines. Now, however, it is Briscoe's time to shine, and to unleash the full extent of ...

Investigational agent targets gene signaling pathways to improve response for patients with CLL

2012-12-08
(ATLANTA, December 8, 2012) –The promising investigational targeted therapy ibrutinib and its mechanism of silencing gene communication pathways critical to the development of cancer may be an effective way to combat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), according to studies presented today at the 54th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH). CLL is a blood cancer that causes abnormal white blood cells called lymphocytes to accumulate in the blood, bone marrow, and in the lymph nodes or other organs, causing these organs to enlarge. Approximately 15,000 ...

Researchers develop novel 3-D culture system for inflammatory breast cancer

2012-12-08
SAN ANTONIO, TX (December 8, 2012)—Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a very rare and aggressive disease that progresses rapidly and is associated with a very low survival rate. To understand how this type of cancer spreads, it's crucial to characterize the interactions between cancer cells and their 3D environment. Researchers at Fox Chase Cancer Center have developed a novel, 3D culture system that mimics the environment surrounding these cancer cells. This model could be used to test new anticancer drugs capable of inhibiting the spread of IBC tumors. "The tumor ...

Studies assess genetics, modified treatment to improve outcomes, reduce toxicity

2012-12-08
(ATLANTA, December 8, 2012) – Research identifying genetic factors that affect survival of patients with blood cancers and evaluating the effectiveness of modified treatment strategies to improve outcomes while reducing toxicity will be presented today at the 54th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH). While the cancer research community has seen many significant therapeutic advances over the last decade, only recently have investigators identified how patients' individual genetic makeup influences their short- and long-term response to therapy, demonstrating ...

Updated Clinical Results Show Experimental Agent Ibrutinib as Highly Active in CLL Patients

2012-12-08
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Updated results from a Phase Ib/II clinical trial indicates that a novel therapeutic agent for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is highly active and well tolerated in patients who have relapsed and are resistant to other therapy. The agent, ibrutinib (PCI-32765), is the first drug designed to target Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), a protein essential for CLL-cell survival and proliferation. CLL is the most common form of leukemia, with about 15,000 new cases annually in the U.S. About 4,400 Americans die of the disease each year. Study co-leader Dr. ...

137 new species described by California Academy of Sciences in 2012

2012-12-08
SAN FRANCISCO (December 6, 2012) — In 2012, researchers at the California Academy of Sciences added 137 new relatives to our family tree, enriching our understanding of the complex web of life on Earth and strengthening our ability to make informed conservation decisions. The new species include 83 arthropods, 41 fishes, seven plants, four sea slugs, one reptile, and one amphibian. Specimens ranged from Eviota goby fishes housed in museum collections for more than 30 years (reported in the October 12 issue of Zootaxa), to Trogloraptor cave spiders collected just two years ...

Mayo Clinic IDs genes that predict whether trastuzumab will work for breast cancer patients

2012-12-08
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Adding the drug trastuzumab to chemotherapy prevents cancer recurrence and improves survival in a large number of women with early stage HER2-positive breast cancer. But trastuzumab does not stop tumors from returning in about 25 percent of patients — and oncologists haven't been able to identify these women before treatment. This situation may soon change, according to a Mayo Clinic study being presented at the 2012 CTRC-AACR San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. VIDEO ALERT: Video of Dr. Perez is available on the Mayo Clinic News Network. A team ...

New small molecule inhibitor could be a safe and first-line treatment for metastatic breast cancer

2012-12-08
SAN ANTONIO, TX (December 7, 2012)—Previous research has shown that a family of genes, proteins and enzymes called the uPA system (for urokinase plasminogen activator) plays an active role in different facets of cancer's biology, including tumor cell invasion, the spread of metastases, and the growth of a primary tumor. Mesupron® is a new small molecule inhibitor, taken as a pill, that inhibits the uPA system. The results from a recent phase II clinical study suggest that the drug could be a safe and first-line treatment that extends progression-free survival for metastatic ...
