Proboji u medicini

Studija novog GSK-ovog leka protiv određene podvrste raka rektuma (3. rak po učestalosti u SAD) Jemperli (dostarlimab-gxly) baziranog na imunoterapiji dala fenomenalne i dosad nezabeležene rezultate - kod 14 od 14 (100%) pacijenata sa odmaklim kancerom rektuma koji su završili ceo tok terapije (6 meseci intravenskog uzimanja leka na svake 3 nedelje - ukupno 9 sesija) rak je potpuno nestao, kod još 4 pacijenta terapija je u toku. Pacijenti nisu lečeni zračenjem ni hemoterapijom, dakle jedina terapija bila je intravensko uzimanje leka, što znači da su tokom tih 6 meseci imali gotovo nepromenjen kvalitet života pošto neželjena dejstva nisu bila ozbiljna.
 
Ekipa studije sada planira istraživanja na većem broju pacijenata, kao i na drugim čvrstim tumorima (npr. želuca, pankreasa i bešike).
 
Kažu da se nove terapije za rak sada pojavljuju tipa jednom mesečno, dok je pre nekoliko godina to bilo jednom godišnje.

A trial group of people with rectal cancer just experienced something of a scientific miracle: their cancer vanished after an experimental treatment.

Patients took a drug called dostarlimab for six months which resulted in their tumors disappearing. https://t.co/LvuNvE4LnW

"There were a lot of happy tears."

It was a small trial, just 18 rectal cancer patients, every one of whom took the same drug.

But the results were astonishing. The cancer vanished in every single patient. https://t.co/mYnlfUkKAs

A small drug trial is having a seismic impact in the world of oncology: After six months of an experimental treatment, tumors vanished in all 14 patients diagnosed with early stage rectal cancer who completed the study by the time it was published. https://t.co/3KHYjD3ZeH

Ako rese pankreas - resili su rak. Mislim, nisu ali...bice blizu.

Jel se kaze proboj ili penetracija?

I sta je Priboj?

dobra vest za rakče na dupče

Ово су лепе вести. 
Код нас је проблем рак дебелог црева у мушкараца, рак материце и дојке у жена. 
Уопште рак се лоше лечи и још лошије дијагностификује у нас.

Kao neko ko je sisao sa lopate u zadnjem trenutku  molim bezpošalice vas omladinu. Biće dobro ako ovo zaživi

+1 za zazivljavanje

imao bih par zivih a dragih

Zaživeće, ali sporo i ne učinkovito kao sada kada je u fazi II kliničke studije. I najverovatnije zbog cene neće biti dostupno većini u Srbiji.

Ovakve stvari se polako i skoro neprimetno dešavaju već 20tak godina i mic po mic je petogodišnji survival rate za mnoge karcinome sve bolji i bolji.

I po svemu sudeći, imunoterapija je way to go from here.

mnogo će da im vredi ako dotle budu sticali imunitete 3x godišnje

Имунитет у стицају. Ако је поштено стечено, немају чега да се боје.

idu stvari na bolje

A Paralyzed Man Can Walk Naturally Again With Brain and Spine Implants

...
In a new study, researchers describe a device that connects the intentions of a paralyzed patient to his physical movements.

In a study published on Wednesday in the journal Nature, researchers in Switzerland described implants that provided a “digital bridge” between Mr. Oskam’s brain and his spinal cord, bypassing injured sections. The discovery allowed Mr. Oskam, 40, to stand, walk and ascend a steep ramp with only the assistance of a walker. More than a year after the implant was inserted, he has retained these abilities and has actually showed signs of neurological recovery, walking with crutches even when the implant was switched off.

“We’ve captured the thoughts of Gert-Jan, and translated these thoughts into a stimulation of the spinal cord to re-establish voluntary movement,” Grégoire Courtine, a spinal cord specialist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne, who helped lead the research, said at the press briefing.
