According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), we've seen a gradual increase in cancer diagnoses among people under the age of 50 over the last few decades. This is a top research priority, along with research that will make early detection more accessible, more affordable, and faster. Biological Dynamics' mission is to never diagnose a disease too late. Through exosome research and our groundbreaking platforms, we envision longer and healthier lives for all, driven by earlier insights into each patient.

🌟 Lifileucel: A Breakthrough in Cancer Treatment 🌟 Exciting news in cancer research! Lifileucel, a novel cellular therapy, is showing incredible promise in treating advanced melanoma. This innovative treatment harnesses your body's own immune cells to target and eliminate cancer cells. 🧬💪 What Makes Lifileucel Special? 🔹 High Efficacy: In clinical trials, about 31.5% of patients responded to the treatment, with many experiencing long-term remission. 🔹 Long-Term Benefits: Some patients have been cancer-free for nearly five years! 🔹 Manageable Side Effects: Unlike some other therapies, lifileucel has fewer severe side effects, making it a safer option. How Does It Work? Lifileucel involves extracting tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) from a patient's tumor, expanding them in the lab, and reinfusing them to boost the immune response against cancer cells. What’s Next? Researchers are exploring lifileucel for other cancers, including lung, ovarian, and head and neck cancers. The future of cancer treatment looks brighter than ever! 🌟 #CancerResearch #CancerTreatment #Immunotherapy #Lifileucel #Melanoma #HealthInnovation #MedicalBreakthrough #Oncology #CancerCare #OAsistan #oncofacts

Prostate cancer is a significant global health issue, with cases expected to double between 2020 and 2040. The Prostate Cancer Commission has analysed both immediate and long-term interventions to address this rising challenge. While the current burden is already substantial, the Commission highlights areas where technology, patient empowerment, and practice changes can significantly advance cancer control.

Community oncologists treat 80% of cancer patients. Yet, with 100+ unique types of cancer and emerging variants, it can be challenging for these #oncologists to keep up with the latest advancements while also seeing an average of 20 patients per day. In this MedPage Today article, AccessHope's chief medical officer Todd M. Sachs, MD discusses how greater collaboration between academic medicine and community oncologists is essential to closing the knowledge gap and optimizing outcomes. #cancercare #cancertreatment

In oncology, we often target metastatic cancer. First because of the high disease burden and limited treatment options. But now, it's shifting focus to early-stage cancer. Because catching it early saves lives. Like the "C the Signs" This AI tool is revolutionizing cancer detection in about 1,400 GP practices in England. It scans medical records and prompts GPs to ask the right questions, suggesting the best tests. The results? Cancer detection rates jumped from 58.7% to 66.0%! Imagine a patient with common symptoms like diarrhea getting an early colorectal cancer diagnosis. Successful treatment follows, and a life is saved. Did you know? - Early-stage breast cancer has a 99% 5-year survival rate. - Cervical cancer? 92%. - Early-stage lung cancer? 56%. And now with "C the Signs," it's possible to make cancer curable. The NHS aims to diagnose 75% of cancers early by 2028. With tools like this, we’re on the right track. Tech and healthcare brought results that are life-saving. P.S. Do you have any ideas on how AI can further transform healthcare? #AI #CancerDetection #HealthcareInnovation #CTechnology #NHS #Oncology #EarlyDetection

https://lnkd.in/gGSbjvMc Discussing the new 2024 cancer statistics just published in the prestigious CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians (part 1) On a positive note, cancer mortality in the United States as in many other developed countries has seen a commendable 33% drop since 1991, attributing this success to reduced smoking rates, advancements in early detection for select cancers, and notable improvements in treatment modalities such as targeted therapies and immunotherapy. However, the flip side unveils a concerning trend in cancer prevention, yes, progress is lagging in cancer prevention, with a rise in the incidence of six of the top 10 cancers. Breast, prostate, uterine corpus, pancreas, oropharynx, liver (female), kidney, and melanoma, alongside colon and cervical cancer in young adults, are experiencing increased rates. Notably, colon cancer has emerged as the leading cause of cancer death in men under 50 and the second-leading cause in women, marking a significant shift from its fourth-place ranking in 1998. Additionally, cancer patients are increasingly shifting from older to middle-aged individuals who have many more years of life expectancy, and thus, opportunity to experience the late effects of treatment, including subsequent second cancers. The authors conclude that Overall progress against cancer could be accelerated by increasing investment in cancer prevention and mitigating cancer disparities through expanded access to high-quality care, but let me add, mechanism based preventative health care. In this context, a holistic approach to preventative healthcare becomes paramount. Integrating mechanism-based preventative measures, such as healthy nutrition, regular exercise, sound sleep, and stress reduction, alongside steering clear of smoking and alcohol, plays a pivotal role in primary and secondary cancer prevention, influencing recurrence risk and prognosis across various common cancers. Taking a proactive stance, at the Charles Perkins Centre RPA clinic we are channeling resources to pioneer a cutting-edge, technology-driven digitalized preventative program, including cancer. One of the key initiatives aims to combat cancer comprehensively, also with exiting data on minimizing the damaging effects associated with chemotherapy.
