A new oral pill drug for pancreatic cancer extends life on average 13.2 months compared to 6.7 months for harsh chemotherapy.

A new oral pill drug approved by the FDA for treatment of pancreatic cancer extends life on average 13.2 months compared to 6.7 months for harsh chemotherapy.ย The drug operates through a first-in-class “molecular glue” tricomplex mechanism that targets the active, GTP-bound “ON” state of both mutant and wild-type RAS proteins. [1, 2, 3] The FDA […]

The Goal of Achieving Medicare-for-All

BRIAHNA JOY GRAY: Let’s talk about something like Medicare for All, which Bernie has already done the work of making popular. It went from a 37% approval prior to 2016 to enjoying 90% approval among Democrats, high 60s% approval among independents, and 49% approval among Republicans even. If you have a so-called socialist, a DSA […]

AAV9 immunogenicity as a scalability trap. PROJECT OPTIMUS to boot.

AAV9 immunogenicity as a scalability trap. PROJECT OPTIMUS to boot. The anti-AAV9 titer cutoff of โ‰ค1:50 reflects a real immunological constraint: patients with prior AAV9 exposure mount a neutralizing immune response that reduces transduction efficiency and risks severe inflammation. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1359644626001571?dgcid=authorhttps://lnkd.in/g2YVjCDb Pre-existing anti-AAV9 antibodies are present in roughly 30โ€“50% of the general population, with the exact […]

Equally consequential is the loss of normal nuclear TDP-43 function, particularly its role in RNA splicing […]
