Do Brows Grow Back? It Depends But Here’s What You Can Do To Help – mindbodygreen.com

By daniellenierenberg

In short: sometimes. As much as wed like to give you a straight answer, hair loss and regrowth (on any part of the body) is a tricky thing thats influenced by many factors. However, heres what we know about eyebrow hair.

First up, if you want to see what your full regrowth is, it takes time: Generally, 4-6 weeks is when you'll experience what most brow specialists refer to as a full regrowth, however, there are people who tend to see growth up to 8-10 weeks. Then there are those who see very nominal growth beyond. I've had certain clients who we've been patient with letting their brows grow in and over the course of a year they saw little bits come in very slowly that were small, brow expert Joey Healy tells us. The majority of your regrowth will be seen in 4-6 weeks, sometimes 8."

So if youve given your strands a good several weeks to do their thing, and you are still seeing gaps, thinner areas, or the like, are they gone forever? Unfortunately, maybe. Repeatedly pulling out hairvia wax or tweezersis hard on the follicle. Do this too much, and the follicle becomes damaged and dies. Once that happens, the hair will never be able to grow back.

"Brows can thin over time as we age, but oftentimes brows thin even more as a result of over-plucking or over-tweezing," board-certified dermatologist Whitney Bowe, M.D. has previously told mbg. "Plucking, tweezing, threading, and waxing all pull the hair from the root, and there's only so much trauma each root can take. Repeating these insults to our hair root over time increase the likelihood that some hairs will never regrow, as too much damage has been done to the base of the root where the stem cells live."

So this means if you've been shaping your brows months, years, or decadesthere might not be much you can really do to turn back the clock.

Most people are surprised to learn that their brows have real limitations of regrowth, especially if you've been shaping your brows for a long period of time, saysHealy. You might be surprised how wimpy the new growth is even after waiting 8-10 weeks so yes, there is value to seeing what their maximum capacity is, but letting them regrow does not mean they are going to be back to the natural brows of your youth or they are not going to return to the natural brows you had before you starting shaping them.

Another issue is scar tissue, notes Healy: Know that hair will not grow on a burn or a scar either. For example, if you had a brow piercing or trauma to the skin that created a scar, no amount of time is going to cover that because the hair follicle is compromised when the brow is scarred.

Combined irradiation and chemotherapy better prepares children for stem cell transplantation than chemotherapy alone – DOTmed HealthCare Business News

By daniellenierenberg

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, June 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Treatment of childhood cancer is a success story, particularly for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). More than 90% of ALL patients below 18 years of age are rescued with contemporary chemotherapy. However, the remaining 10% have resistant or reoccurring leukemia and require alternative treatment regimens. One of the most powerful leukemia therapies is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a donor (allogeneic HSCT). Approximately 50-80% of pediatric ALL patients that receive allogeneic HSCT are cured, 20% experience leukemic reoccurrence (relapse), and 10% die from complications.

Allogeneic HSCT is a multistep procedure:

Therefore, a large consortium of pediatric transplant experts initiated a global study to investigate whether chemotherapy-based conditioning could substitute TBI. The study is called FORUM (For Omitting Radiation Under Majority Age) and had to be stopped because chemotherapy-based conditioning had significantly poorer outcomes (i.e., lower overall survival rates) than the combination of TBI and chemotherapy. The researchers will now perform prospective monitoring to better define the advantages and limitations of various conditioning approaches.

BrainStorm Receives $500K to Support ALS Study of NurOwn Therapy – ALS News Today

By daniellenierenberg

The ALS Association and I AM ALS have awarded BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics $500,000 to support an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) biomarker study based on the biotechnology companys pivotal trial into its NurOwn therapy.

Specifically, the combined grant $400,000 is from the ALS Association will be used to gain insights from data as well as tissue and blood samples collected from patients enrolled in the Phase 3 clinical trial (NCT03280056) that is measuring NurOwns safety and effectiveness.

As part of the award, BrainStorm agreed to share data and samples with the ALS community to potentially advance other ALS research, and to have trial results independently validated.

By assessing how NurOwn interacts with brain and spinal cord targets, the hope is the study produces a deeper understanding of crucial biomarkers associated with treatment response. A biomarker is any measurable body substance that changes over time, and that correlates with treatment response.

If it works the way its intended, the study is expected to help inform scientists broader understanding of ALS biomarkers.

This grant to BrainStorm marks an important step forward in establishing how exactly NurOwn works in the body, Calaneet Balas, ALS Association president and CEO, said in a press release. This research is also important to our overall pursuit of identification and validation of ALS biomarkers. We hope NurOwn is ultimately proven effective in treating ALS, and we stand ready to support BrainStorm in its plan to apply for a biologics license for NurOwn.

NurOwn is a cell-based therapy that usesmesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are extracted from a patients own bone marrow. These cells have the ability to generate different cell types. After extraction, MSCs are expanded in the lab and matured into cells that produce high levels ofneurotrophic factors, which are compounds that promote nervous tissue growth and survival. The converted cells are then reintroduced into the body via an injection into muscles or the spinal canal.

A Phase 2 trial (NCT02017912) found NurOwn to be safe and to significantly slow disease progression in a subset of ALS patients with fast-advancing disease. The Phase 3 trial is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of three administrations every two months of NurOwn into the spinal canal, when compared with a placebo.

The Phase 3 trials chief goal is to confirm the effectiveness of NurOwn as measured by the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis functional rating scale (ALSFRS-R), a score of abilities such as swallowing, speech, handwriting, or walking.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, patient dosing in the trial is expected to be complete by next month. The study is fully enrolled with 200 participants across six U.S. sites. All patients have been given at least two of three doses. A summary of important findings will be announced later this year.

This critical research study involves one of the largest and most robust clinical trial collectors of [cerebrospinal fluid] biomarkers, said Chaim Lebovits, BrainStorm CEO. Data generated from this study will increase our understanding of how NurOwn therapy impacts ALS disease progression, and may identify patients who benefit the most from this form of therapy. We also hope that this research study will benefit the broader ALS community as we collectively advance toward our shared goal of delivering much-needed treatments, he said.

Danielle Carnival, CEO of I AM ALS, said the ALS community is at a pivotal time in terms of treatment research.

We need to move with urgency in all of our efforts to deliver treatments and cures for ALS, she said. This biomarker research will help us more expeditiously understand the effectiveness of NurOwn, while possibly unlocking discoveries that provide clues for other promising treatments.

Calquence showed long-term efficacy and tolerability for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia in two trials | Vaccines | News Channels -…

By daniellenierenberg

DetailsCategory: VaccinesPublished on Saturday, 13 June 2020 12:40Hits: 488

ACE-CL-001 trial showed an overall response rate of 97% with a sustained safety profile for previously untreated patients after more than four years

In pivotal ASCEND trial, 82% of patients with relapsed or refractory disease treated with Calquence remained progression free at 18 months vs. 48% for comparators

LONDON, UK I June 12, 2020 I Detailed results from both the Phase II ACE-CL-001 trial and the pivotal Phase III ASCEND trial showed the long-term efficacy and tolerability of Calquence (acalabrutinib) in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), one of the most common types of adult leukaemia.1,2,3

The results will be presented during the Virtual Edition of the 25th European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Congress, 11 to 14 June 2020.

In the single-arm ACE-CL-001 trial, 86% of CLL patients treated with Calquence as a 1st-line monotherapy remained on treatment at a median follow up of more than four years. The trial showed an overall response rate of 97% (7% complete response; 90% partial response) and a 100% overall response rate in subgroups of patients with high-risk disease characteristics, including genomic aberrations (17p deletion and TP53 mutation), immunoglobulin mutation status (unmutated IGHV), and complex karyotype. Safety findings showed no new long-term issues.1,4

In the final analysis of ASCEND, an estimated 82% of patients with relapsed or refractory CLL treated with Calquence remained alive and free from disease progression at 18 months compared with 48% of patients on rituximab combined with idelalisib or bendamustine.2 The trial previously met the primary endpoint of Independent Review Committee-assessed progression-free survival at the interim analysis.5

Richard R. Furman, Director of the CLL Research Center, Weill Cornell Medicine said: These data demonstrate no new safety concerns for acalabrutinib, confirming its ability to safely provide meaningful, long-term clinical benefit for patients with treatment-naive and relapsed or refractory disease. The safety profile of acalabrutinib makes treatment to progression an important and plausible option for patients.

Jos Baselga, Executive Vice President, Oncology R&D said: These long-term data reaffirm that Calquence delivers a durable response with a favourable safety profile for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia patients. Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia are typically 70 years or older with comorbidities and often require treatment over a long time, making the sustained safety and efficacy profile highly relevant to their quality of life.

Results from the Phase II ACE-CL-001 trial informed the development of the pivotal Phase III ELEVATE TN trial, which, along with findings from the Phase III ASCEND trial, formed the basis for the US approval of Calquence for the treatment of patients with CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

Calquence in previously untreated CLL: 4.4-year follow-up from Phase II trial (abstract #S163)

The Phase II ACE-CL-001 trial investigated safety and efficacy of Calquence (100mg twice-daily [n=62] or 200mg once-daily [n=37]) in previously untreated patients with CLL.1 On 1 May 2015, patients receiving the 200mg dosing regimen were switched to the 100mg regimen.1

Key data from the Calquence Phase II ACE-CL-001 trial1

CI, confidence interval; CR, complete response; DoR, duration of response; EFS, event free survival; TTR, time to response; NR, not reached; ORR, overall response rate; PR, partial response

Response rates were 100% in each subgroup of patients with high-risk disease characteristics (unmutated IGHV [n=57], 17p deletion [n=9], TP53 mutation [n=9], and complex karyotype [n=12]), and reduction in lymph node disease was noted in all patients tested (n=97).1

At the time of data cut-off, 85 (86%) patients receiving Calquence remained on treatment. Six patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events (AEs) and three patients discontinued for progressive disease (PD). No patient discontinued Calquence due to bleeding events, hypertension, or atrial fibrillation. Incidence of AEs generally diminished with time on the trial. The most common AEs (40%) of any grade in the trial were diarrhoea (52%), headache (45%), upper respiratory tract infection (44%), arthralgia (42%), and contusion (42%). All-grade and Grade 3 events of clinical interest included infection (84% and 15%, respectively), bleeding events (66%, 3%), hypertension (22%, 11%), leukopenia (9%, 9%), and thrombocytopenia (3%, 1%). Atrial fibrillation (all grades) occurred in 5% of patients with Grade 3 occurring in 2%. Second primary malignancies (SPM) excluding non-melanoma skin (all grades) occurred in 11% of patients.1 Serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported in 38% of patients. SAEs occurring in more than two patients included pneumonia (n=4) and sepsis (n=3).1

Final results of Calquence Phase III ASCEND trial in relapsed or refractory CLL (abstract #S159)

ASCEND was a global, randomised, multicentre, open-label, Phase III trial that investigated the efficacy and safety of Calquence (100mg twice-daily) versus investigators choice of rituximab combined with idelalisib (IdR) or bendamustine (BR) in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL.2

Key data from the final analysis of the Calquence Phase III ASCEND trial2

BR, rituximab in combination with bendamustine; CI, confidence interval, DoR, duration of response; HR, hazard ratio; IdR, rituximab in combination with idelalisib; INV, investigator; NR, not reached; ORR, overall response rate; OS, overall survival; PFS, progression-free survival

Sixteen per cent of patients on Calquence, 56% of patients on IdR, and 17% of patients on BR discontinued treatment because of AEs. Common AEs occurring in greater than 15% of patients of any grade in the Calquence arm of the trial included headache (22%), neutropenia (21%), diarrhoea (20%), upper respiratory tract infection (20%), cough (16%), and anaemia (16%). Events of clinical interest for Calquence versus controls included atrial fibrillation (all grade, 6% and 3%, respectively), major haemorrhage (all grade, 3% in both arms), infections (Grade 3, 20% and 25%, respectively), and SPM excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (all grade, 5% and 2%, respectively). SAEs (any grade) occurred in 33% of patients receiving Calquence, 56% of IdR patients, and 26% of BR patients.2

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is one of the most common types of leukaemia in adults, with an estimated 105,000 new cases globally in 2016 and 21,040 new cases in the US in 2020, and the number of people living with CLL is expected to grow with improved treatment as patients live longer with the disease.3,6,7,8 In CLL, too many blood stem cells in the bone marrow become abnormal lymphocytes and these abnormal cells have difficulty fighting infections.3 As the number of abnormal cells grows there is less room for healthy white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.3 This could result in anaemia, infection, and bleeding.3 B-cell receptor signalling through Brutons tyrosine kinase is one of the essential growth pathways for CLL.

Calquence

Calquence(acalabrutinib) is a next-generation, selective inhibitor of Brutons tyrosine kinase (BTK).Calquencebinds covalently to BTK, thereby inhibiting its activity.4,9 In B-cells, BTK signaling results in activation of pathways necessary for B-cell proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion.4

Calquenceis approved for the treatment of adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) in nine countries and for adult patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least one prior therapy in 14 countries. The US MCL indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials. As part of an extensive clinical development programme, AstraZeneca and Acerta Pharma are currently evaluatingCalquencein 23 company-sponsored clinical trials.Calquenceis being developed for the treatment of multiple B-cell blood cancers including CLL, MCL, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Waldenstrm macroglobulinaemia, follicular lymphoma, and other haematologic malignancies.

AstraZeneca in haematology

Leveraging its strength in oncology, AstraZeneca has established haematology as one of four key oncology disease areas of focus. The Companys haematology franchise includes two US FDA-approved medicines and a robust global development programme for a broad portfolio of potential blood cancer treatments. Acerta Pharma serves as AstraZenecas haematology research and development arm. AstraZeneca partners with like-minded science-led companies to advance the discovery and development of therapies to address unmet need.

AstraZeneca in oncology

AstraZeneca has a deep-rooted heritage in oncology and offers a quickly growing portfolio of new medicines that has the potential to transform patients' lives and the Company's future. With six new medicines launched between 2014 and 2020, and a broad pipeline of small molecules and biologics in development, the Company is committed to advance oncology as a key growth driver for AstraZeneca focused on lung, ovarian, breast and blood cancers.

Sure, Bit Bio got some significant cash for its cell coding work. But it’s the insiders who are backing them that will garner the attention -…

By daniellenierenberg

You can count the R&D execs at AbbVie among the believers in Genmabs bispecific platform tech.

Moving beyond the Allergan buyout, AbbVie refocused on its cancer drug pipeline, shelling out $750 million in cash and promising up to $3.15 billion more in milestones 60% for development and regulatory goals to ally itself on a slate of 7 development and discovery programs.

At the front of the queue is the early-stage drug epcoritamab, a CD3xCD20 bispecific from its DuoBody collection. Theres also DuoHexaBody-CD37 and DuoBody-CD3x5T4. And then AbbVie gets to pick and choose from among the discovery work at Genmab for 4 more, with AbbVie adding in its own contributions in the pairing up to come.

Irish dad with rare form of cancer would have died within a week if he didn’t go to hospital – Irish Mirror

By daniellenierenberg

When Eoin OBrien found out he had a rare form of cancer, he was told he would have died within a week had he not gone to hospital.

Now, five years on, the dad of four is remarkably free of the disease.

Eoins life changed in May 2015 when he went to A&E with chest pains.

He was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma, which causes abnormal growth of cells in the lymphatic system.

Due to fluid build-up, Eoins heart would have suffocated within days had he not been treated.

And after half a decade of pain and suffering, he is finally in remission.

The news came on his wife Karens birthday, making it all the more special for the pair and their daughters Sophie, 13, Abbie, 11, Maddie, eight, and three-year-old Emelie.

Karen said: To say that that was the best news ever would be an understatement, I would rather be told that 10 times over than even win the lotto.

Eoin was only 31 when he was diagnosed following a hospital visit after he started getting pains in his chest.

Doctors drained three-and-a-half litres of fluid from his chest and found a tumour between his lungs and heart.

After his first round of chemo didnt work, Eoin found a lump on his neck.

He was started on a higher dose of chemo which was, in his wife Karens opinion, the hardest one on him.

She explained: Eoin got the moon-face, he got the cancer look. Darkness under the skin of his eyes and that.

The pair hoped this treatment was working but were disappointed again when doctors told them it hadnt.

Two years later in 2017, when Karen was pregnant with Emelie, Eoin still wasnt responding to treatments.

He was due to go into hospital after his daughter was born for a planned stem cell transplant which was later cancelled.

The pair fought to get Eoin immunotherapy, which slowed down but didnt cure his cancer.

In 2019, he was told he could get an allogeneic stem cell transplant from a donor. Karen explained: So on the 6th of November, which we now class as Eoins re-birthday, he was given the transplant and he became so, so bad.

Eoin was at the stage where he wanted to give up. He didnt want to live anymore, he didnt want to go through it anymore.

Results of a scan in February had alarming results which left the two terrified the cancer had spread.

Thankfully, it was only an infection.

Eoin was hospitalised for six weeks and due to the coronavirus, wasnt allowed outside or to have visitors.

In May, the pair were given the news his transplant worked.

Karen said: Theres been a lot of ups and a lot of downs but were finally out the other side, so hopefully we can look forward to many, many years cancer-free.

Poison hemlock and wild parsnip, A couple of bad actors – Commonwealth Journal’s History

By daniellenierenberg

This was reprinted with permission from Joe Boggs, OSU

Poison hemlock (Conium maculatum) and wild parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) are two of our nastiest non-native weeds found in Ohio. Poison hemlock is one of the deadliest plants in North America. Wild parsnip can produce severe, painful blistering. Both are commonly found growing together.

Poison hemlock and wild parsnip are members of the carrot family, Apiaceae. The old name for the family was Umbelliferae which refers to the umbel flowers. They are a key family feature with short flower stalks rising from a common point like the ribs on an umbrella.

Poison hemlock produces white flowers on stalks that create a more rounded look; perhaps a bit more like an umbrella. Wild parsnip has intense yellow flowers with the stalks producing a more flat-topped appearance.

Both are biennial weeds meaning that it takes two years for plants to produce seed. The seeds currently being produced will give rise to plants that spend their first year as low-growing basal rosettes. The plants produce a long, thick taproot while in this stage.

During their second year, plants "bolt" by producing erect, towering stalks and multi-branched stems topped with umbel flowers. Mature wild parsnip plants may top 6' tall while poison hemlock plants can tower to as much as 8 - 10' tall. Both are prolific seed producers

Wild parsnip plants have leaves that look vaguely like celery, another member of the carrot family. Mature plants have a single, thick, deeply grooved, greenish-yellow stem that sprouts lateral branches topped with flowers.

All stages of poison hemlock plants have bluish-green leaves that are 3-4 times pinnately compound. The deeply cut parsley-like leaflets have sharp points. Flowering plants have hairless, light-green to bluish-green stems that are covered with obvious reddish-purple blotches. However, the blotches may occasionally coalesce to cause stems to appear an almost solid color.

What are the Risks?

Poison hemlock plants contain highly toxic piperidine alkaloid compounds which cause respiratory failure and death in mammals. The roots are more toxic than the leaves and stems; however, all parts of the plant including the seeds should be considered dangerous.

The toxins must be ingested or enter through the eyes or nasal passages to induce poisoning; they do not cause skin rashes or blistering. Regardless, this plant should not be handled because sap on the skin can be rubbed into the eyes or accidentally ingested while handling food.

Wild parsnip sap contains psoralen which presents a completely different mode of action compared to the piperidine alkaloids in poison hemlock sap. Psoralen acts as a photosensitizing compound by inhibiting DNA synthesis in epidermal cells which kills these light-shielding cells responsible for protecting us from long-wave ultraviolet radiation (LWUVR) bombarding us in sunlight.

Severe blistering occurs when affected skin is exposed to LWUVR. The synergistic effect is called phytophotodermatitis (a.k.a. Berloque dermatitis) and the burn-like symptoms, as well as skin discoloration, may last for several months.

However, connecting skin blistering to exposure to wild parsnip sap can be a challenge. It takes around 24 hours for symptoms to first appear after exposure to LWURV and severe blistering typically doesn't peak until 48 -72 hours. The time required for symptoms to appear after exposure to the sap means the effect may be disconnected from the cause.

Another challenge with connecting the dots is that wild parsnip commonly grows in and around other weeds, particularly poison hemlock (Conium maculatum). Gardeners who are exposed to wild parsnip sap while weeding a mixed-patch may mistakenly blame the poison hemlock for their ultimate misery.

To Mow, or Not to Mow

The potential for poisonings from poison hemlock sap and the extreme skin reaction to the wild parsnip sap means these non-native invasive weeds should not be allowed to grow where they can be easily contacted by people. However, mechanical control through mowing, weed trimming, or hand-pulling is problematic. Certainly, wild parsnip presents a much higher risk with reports of sap spattered by mowers and string trimmers producing phytophotodermatitis on exposed arms and legs of equipment operators.

Still, mowing provides one option for managing poison hemlock and to a lesser degree wild parsnip. However, timing is everything: plants should be mowed in the spring once they've bolted but prior to the appearance of flowers. Waiting until after flowering presents a risk the cut flowers will still mature to seed.

Chemical Control: Case Study

A strong case can be made for herbicides providing the most effective and safest approach to managing both poison hemlock and wild parsnip.

Wild parsnip and poison hemlock are both susceptible to non-selective post-emergent herbicides such as glyphosate (e.g. Roundup). However, "non-selective" means all plants - both good and bad - may be killed and there is a considerable downside to killing the competition as well as the targeted weeds.

Post-emergent herbicides do not affect seeds. Thus, "herbicidal openings" that occur when all plants are killed provide the perfect opportunity for more wild parsnip and/or poison hemlock to spring forth from previously deposited seed. Thus, it's important to have a plan for establishing competitive plants after the wild parsnip dies off such as over-seeding with grasses.

Selective post-emergent herbicides that will preserve competitive plants, particularly grasses, while removing poison hemlock and wild parsnip include 2, 4-D, clorpyralid (e.g. Transline), metsulfuron (e.g. Escort XP), and some 2 and 3-way products such as Triamine (2,4-D + MCPA). However, timing is equally important. Apply after the spring emergence of the targeted weeds but before flowering.

New Data Show Near Elimination of Sickle Cell Disease-Related Vaso-Occlusive Crises and Acute Chest Syndrome in Phase 1/2 Clinical Study of bluebird…

By daniellenierenberg

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--bluebird bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLUE) announced that new data from its ongoing Phase 1/2 HGB-206 study of investigational LentiGlobin gene therapy for adult and adolescent patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) show a near-complete reduction of serious vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) and acute chest syndrome (ACS). These data are being presented at the Virtual Edition of the 25th European Hematology Association (EHA25) Annual Congress.

Vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) are the painful, life-threatening episodes that are the primary clinical manifestation of sickle cell disease. The nearly complete elimination of VOCs that we saw in this study is impressive and demonstrates the potential of LentiGlobin for SCD as a treatment for this serious disease, said David Davidson, M.D., chief medical officer, bluebird bio. These results illustrate the type of outcomes we believe are needed to provide truly meaningful improvements for people living with sickle cell disease. In addition, the improvement of laboratory measures of hemolysis and red cell physiology, with nearly pan-cellular distribution of the anti-sickling HbAT87Q, suggest LentiGlobin for SCD may substantially modify the causative pathophysiology of SCD. We are pleased to have reached a general agreement with the FDA on the clinical data required to support a submission for LentiGlobin for SCD and we plan to seek an accelerated approval. We look forward to working with the entire SCD community to bring forward a disease modifying option for patients.

SCD is a serious, progressive and debilitating genetic disease caused by a mutation in the -globin gene that leads to the production of abnormal sickle hemoglobin (HbS). HbS causes red blood cells to become sickled and fragile, resulting in chronic hemolytic anemia, vasculopathy and unpredictable, painful VOCs. For adults and children living with SCD, this means painful crises and other life altering or life-threatening acute complicationssuch as ACS, stroke and infections. If patients survive the acute complications, vasculopathy and end-organ damage, resulting complications can lead to pulmonary hypertension, renal failure and early death; in the U.S. the median age of death for someone with sickle cell disease is 43 - 46 years.

As a physician treating sickle cell for over 10 years, the excruciating pain crises that my patients suffer from is one of the most challenging and frustrating aspects of this disease, said presenting study author Julie Kanter, M.D., University of Alabama at Birmingham. The promising results of this study, which show patients have an almost complete elimination of VOCs and ACS, suggest LentiGlobin for SCD has real potential to provide a significant impact for people living with sickle cell disease.

LentiGlobin for SCD was designed to add functional copies of a modified form of the -globin gene (A-T87Q-globin gene) into a patients own hematopoietic (blood) stem cells (HSCs). Once patients have the A-T87Q-globin gene, their red blood cells can produce anti-sickling hemoglobin, HbAT87Q, that decreases the proportion of HbS, with the goal of reducing sickled red blood cells, hemolysis and other complications.

As of March 3, 2020, a total of 37 patients have been treated with LentiGlobin for SCD to-date in the HGB-205 (n=3) and HGB-206 (n=34) clinical studies. The HGB-206 total includes: Group A (n=7), B (n=2) and C (n=25).

HGB-206: Group C Updated Efficacy Results

In Group C of HGB-206, 25 patients were treated with LentiGlobin for SCD and have up to 24.8 months of follow-up (median of 12.1; min.-max.: 2.824.8 months). Results from Group C are as of March 3, 2020 and include efficacy data for 16 patients who had at least a Month 6 visit, and safety data for 18 patients, which includes two patients who were at least six months post-treatment but results from a Month 6 visit are not available.

In 16 patients with six or more months of follow-up, median levels of gene therapy-derived anti-sickling hemoglobin, HbAT87Q, were maintained with HbAT87Q contributing at least 40% of total hemoglobin. At last visit reported, total hemoglobin ranged from 9.6 16.2 g/dL and HbAT87Q levels ranged from 2.7 9.4 g/dL. At Month 6 the production of HbAT87Q was associated with a reduction in the proportion of HbS in total hemoglobin. Patients had a median of 60% HbS. All patients in Group C were able to stop regular blood transfusions and remain off transfusions at three months post-treatment.

There was a 99.5% mean reduction in annualized rate of VOC and ACS among the 14 patients who had at least six months of follow-up and a history of VOCs or ACS, defined as four or more VOC or ACS events in the two years prior to treatment. These 14 patients had a median of eight events in the two years prior to treatment (min.-max.: 4 28 events).

There were no reports of serious VOCs or ACS at up to 24 months post-treatment in patients with at least six months of follow-up (n=18). As previously reported, one non-serious Grade 2 VOC was observed in a patient approximately 3.5 months post-treatment with LentiGlobin for SCD.

In sickle cell disease, red blood cells become sickled and fragile, rupturing more easily than healthy red blood cells. The breakdown of red blood cells is hemolysis and this process occurs normally in the body. However, in sickle cell disease hemolysis happens too quickly due to the fragility of the red blood cells, which results in hemolytic anemia.

Patients treated with LentiGlobin for SCD demonstrated improvement in key markers of hemolysis, which are indicators of the health of red blood cells. Lab results assessing these indicators were available for the majority of the 18 patients with 6 months of follow-up. The medians for reticulocyte counts (n=15), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels (n=13) and total bilirubin (n=16) improved compared to screening and stabilized by Month 6. In patients with Month 24 data (n=5) these values approached the upper limit of normal by Month 24. These results suggest treatment with LentiGlobin for SCD is improving biological markers of sickle cell disease.

Assays were developed by bluebird bio to enable the detection of HbAT87Q and HbS protein in individual red blood cells as well as to assess if HbAT87Q was pancellular, present throughout all of a patients red blood cells. Samples from a subset of patients in Group C were assessed. In nine patients who had at least six months of follow-up, the average proportion of red blood cells positive for HbAT87Q was greater than 70%, and on average more than 85% of red blood cells contained HbAT87Q at 18 months post-treatment, suggesting near-complete pancellularity of HbAT87Q distribution.

HGB-206: Group C Safety Results

As of March 3, 2020, the safety data from all patients in HGB-206 are generally reflective of underlying SCD and the known side effects of hematopoietic stem cell collection and myeloablative conditioning. There were no serious adverse events related to LentiGlobin for SCD, and the non-serious, related adverse events (AEs) were mild-to-moderate in intensity and self-limited.

One patient with a history of frequent pre-treatment VOE, pulmonary and systemic hypertension, venous thrombosis, obesity, sleep apnea and asthma had complete resolution of VOEs following treatment, but suffered sudden death 20 months after treatment with LentiGlobin for SCD. The patients autopsy revealed cardiac enlargement and fibrosis, and concluded the cause of death was cardiovascular, with contributions from SCD and asthma. The treating physician and an independent monitoring committee agreed this death was unlikely related to LentiGlobin for SCD gene therapy.

The presentation is now available on demand on the EHA25 website:

About HGB-206

HGB-206 is an ongoing, Phase 1/2 open-label study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LentiGlobin gene therapy for SCD that includes three treatment cohorts: Groups A (n=7), B (n=2) and C (n=25). A refined manufacturing process that was designed to increase vector copy number (VCN) and improve engraftment potential of gene-modified stem cells was used for Group C. Group C patients also received LentiGlobin for SCD made from HSCs collected from peripheral blood after mobilization with plerixafor, rather than via bone marrow harvest, which was used in Groups A and B of HGB-206.

LentiGlobin for Sickle Cell Disease Regulatory Status

bluebird bio reached general agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the clinical data package required to support a Biologics Licensing Application (BLA) submission for LentiGlobin for SCD will be based on data from a portion of patients in the HGB-206 study Group C that have already been treated. The planned submission will be based on an analysis using complete resolution of severe vaso-occlusive events (VOEs) as the primary endpoint with at least 18 months of follow-up post-treatment with LentiGlobin for SCD. Globin response will be used as a key secondary endpoint.

bluebird bio anticipates additional guidance from the FDA regarding the commercial manufacturing process, including suspension lentiviral vector. bluebird bio announced in a May 11, 2020 press release it plans to seek an accelerated approval and expects to submit the U.S. BLA for SCD in the second half of 2021.

The Country Is Reopening. Im Still on Lockdown – WIRED

By daniellenierenberg

For millions of Americans, though, keeping normalcy at bay for such a long time is a luxury they cant afford. People need to hold onto their jobs. Or find new ones. The streets are filling up with Americans who are responding to one national crisisthat of police brutality and systemic racismin the midst of another. And the economy is in cardiac arrest.

Just last week, to address this, the governor of my state announced an accelerated reopening. In the last weeks, there were about 1,500 new coronavirus cases in our region, an increase of 37 percent. In all these headlines, I can see cracks in the walls Ive built around my mom and my partner. How do we bubble people stay safe as the world moves ahead? In some ways people who are immunocompromised have lived their lives in preparation for all of this, Mamjunder told me.

Not long ago, in response to WIRED's Covid-19 coverage, the publication got an email from a woman named Brandy Stephens whod been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2014, when she was 26. She and her husband had a 1-year-old daughter. Her treatment put her in the hospital for 165 days, 35 of them on a ventilator. During that time a mere houseplant could have killed me, she wrote. I had multi-organ failure, my bone marrow died, I had pulmonary embolisms, a partially collapsed lung. Then, a stem cell transplant built her a new immune system. In July 2019, at the five-year mark, Stephens was finally able to be reimmunized, against the scary things that babies are immunized for.

Most of the world does not know we exist, she wrote.

I called her to ask about how she did it. I needed to know how to shepherd my mom and partner through a reopened world. I couldn't eat takeout for a year post-transplant. I carry sanitizer, gloves, masks, Lysol with me. She added, My husband is my rock. It has become second nature to have real quirks, to, say, go to family gatherings but not get close to anyone. She knows how to do this. I feel for people who never have had to isolate before, she added, I went through that struggle. (Immunocompromised people have figured out how to protest too.)

We are lucky to live in an area that has kept the overall coronavirus numbers low, yet the steady tick of reminders about potential Covid-19 resurgences haunt me. For everyone in this pandemic, its hard right now to accurately see a future beyond quarantine. Will we return to normal this year? What does normal mean? Something different for all of us, of course.

Last Friday afternoon I was working at Moms house, and I took a break. We were sitting in her living room, on her lovely blue couches. The dog tucked his head under her arm. Mom asked me what I was looking forward to.

The question jolted me. In pre-corona times, I tried to keep things on the calendar to look forward to. But over the past two months I have shut that instinct down.

Now, my mind ricocheted. Restaurants. Could I look forward to eating at our favorite pizza joint? My partners brother: He just added a new floor at the top of the house, a big glorious room with sliding glass doors that open to a porch overlooking the Pacific. He wants to have parties in that big, cheerful space. Will we be there?

Here are the things I hope to put on my calendar someday soon: dinner at our friends house. Driving with Mom for a day at our favorite beach, without worrying about crowds. Those parties at my partners brothers house, in that big, cheerful space. And if need be, flights to a different city if the new treatments we need for my partners cancer arrive, via a trial, somewhere else.

I hope I can put all of those things on the calendar, for the time we have left together.

A definitive ranking of who will win MasterChef Australia 2020. – Mamamia

By daniellenierenberg

We are down to top nine of MasterChefAustralia 2020. That may seem like an odd point at which to call the winner. But hey, we're just that invested.

Below, I have compiled a list of whose unbalanced/under-seasoned/shallow-flavoured dish is going to send them home next; from Sunday night's all-in street-food elimination, right through to the finale.

No matter what happens on Masterchef, we'll always have Katy Perry. Relive the magic of her episode below. (Post continues.)

'Based on what?' I hear you ask.

Good question.

I could walk you through some highly advanced modelling based on past performance and predictive analytics, but I didn't actually do any of that.

Instead, I used a mix of womanly instinct, unashamed favouritism and a few spoilersfrom The Daily Mail.

So here we go. In a very particular order...

A forensic analysis of the promo for Sunday night's episode has led me to conclude that Khanh is going home next.

By which I mean they're setting it up to look like Emelia is going which means she definitely isn't, and there are lingering shots of Khanh, and the words 'fan favourite' are used.

AND the tabloids have reported that he doesn't make the top six... and... and... I just have a hunch.

Tessa is probably the most versatile cook in the joint.

Technically skilled, intuitive, knowledgeable. I don't anticipate a major stuff up sending her home.

She will likely only be felled by someone else pulling, as Andy would say, "a really cracking plate of food" out of their backside.

...will still be happy when he leaves, because he's Callum.

The mums of Australia, meanwhile, will be very sad because "he just seems like such a nice boy".

Sweet, Brendan. You are too good for reality television.

Run, run far away. (Preferably towards my house, say, around dinner time...)

This one will hurt most of all.

But at least we will get an uplifting montage of his best moments; like that time he hid beneath his bench when Katy Perry approached, and that time he won two challenges in a row and someone said, "It's Reece week" and he replied "Oh my god, it IS Reece week."

That was fun.

I thought it was just a rash but rare cancer now covers 90% of my skin splitting my hands and feet open – The Sun

By daniellenierenberg

WHEN Tony Ferreira developed a small skin rash on his lower back - he assumed it would be gone in a few days.

And given the dad-of-one, 40, had always been fit and healthy, the last thing to cross his mind was that it could be cancer.

4

However, Tony's worst fears became a reality when the rash rapidly spread across his body - causing his feet and hands to split open.

Doctors soon diagnosed the gardener, from Jersey, with a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma called Sezary syndrome - which has now affected about 90 per cent of his body.

Desperate to keep her husband alive, Tony's wife Osvalda is now pleading for a stem cell donor to come forward and save his life.

She said: "We pray that a stranger will help us to continue our lives together for many years to come."

We pray that a stranger will help us to continue our lives together for many years to come

Tony's nightmare first begun in 2012, when he noticed a small rash on his lower back which did not go away.

The rash quickly developed - causing his hands and feet would split open - and Tony then noticed lumps in his groin and under his arms.

Five years on, in 2017, medics diagnosed Tony, originally from Madeira, with a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma called Sezary syndrome.

The condition causes white blood cells to become cancerous and aggressively attack the skin.

About 90 per cent of Tony's body is now affected by the rare cancer, and his best chance of survival is blood stem cell donation.

His wife is now desperately hoping a stem cell donor will come forward.

The charity DKMS is co-ordinating the worldwide search for a donor, but Tony's Portuguese heritage is making it much more difficult for him to find a match.

Tony's parents and four siblings have been checked as a potential match, but none are suitable.

In March, Tony's doctors decided to treat him with a new anti-cancer chemotherapy drug (mogamulizumab) but the trial was then delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Osvalda, who worked as a housekeeper for a care home in Jersey, had been keeping the family afloat financially, but was then advised to take temporary leave due to the risk she might contract Covid-19 and pass it on to her husband.

She said: "Tony's condition is bad enough, but for thousands of patients living with cancer in the UK, Covid-19 has delayed many treatments.

"We're not sure yet when we can begin travelling to London for treatment or what the new normal will look like.

"I long to hold Tony's hands again, without his protective gloves on.

What is Sezary syndrome?

Sezary syndrome is an aggressive form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma which is a group of disorders that occur when T-cells (a type of white blood cell) become cancerous and affect the skin.

It is characterised by a widespread red rash that may cover most of the body, the presence of cancerous T cells (called Sezary cells) in the blood, and abnormally enlarged lymph nodes.

Although Sezary syndrome can affect people of all ages, it is most commonly diagnosed in adults over age 60.

The signs and symptoms of this condition can vary but may include:

Affected people may also have an increased risk of developing anotherlymphomaor other type ofcancer.

The exact cause of Sezary syndrome is currently unknown.

Source: Rare Diseases

Treatment varies based on the signs and symptoms present in each person and the severity of the condition.

"Tony has been wearing his blue plastic gloves so long now that I've almost forgotten how his hands feel without them.

"He has such strong hands and holding them would reassure me that everything is going to be all right."

Jonathan Pearce, chief executive officer at DKMS UK, said the charity had seen a 50 per cent drop in the number of people coming forward to be donors due to coronavirus.

He added: "We are hugely concerned about the impact Covid-19 is having on those who rely on a blood stem cell donor.

"While many stem cell transplants are still going ahead, the logistics around supporting blood stem cell donors to travel to hospital, and then arranging the transport of the stem cells to the transplant centre, have become much more challenging and complex.

"There are also transplants that have been delayed, but once the pandemic is over we know there will be a backlog of patients in urgent need of an unrelated blood stem cell donor.

"Sadly though, in some of those cases there's a risk that the disease could progress further, and a transplant may no longer be possible once this is all over."

Ancient crocodiles used to walk on two feet, new footprints reveal – News Landed

By daniellenierenberg

A new finding in South Korea reveals that the ancestors to the modern crocodile walked on two legs. The 106-million-year-old fossilized foot impressions of the crocodylomorph suggest that the ancient reptile was 2 to 3 meters long, as the researchers published in the journal Scientific Reports.

Professor Kyung Soo Kim and his team from the Chinju National University of Education found the footprints and skin traces at the Sacheon Jahye-ri site of theJinju Formation. The team was able to conclude that the creatures must have been bi-pedal, as there were no hand impressions or front feet impressions present at the site.

The footprints were initially thought to be made by a giant bipedal pterosaur walking on the mudflat, we now understand that these were bipedal crocodile prints, said University of Queenslands Dr. Anthony Romilio. The footprints measure around 21 cm, suggesting the track-makers had legs about the same height as human adult legs. These were long animals that we estimate were over 3 m in length. Source: Sci News.

The newly found tracks were named Batrachopus grandis, in comparison to the smaller Batrachopus type tracks.

Previous discoveries have also hinted that ancient crocodiles could have been bi-pedal. One example was the skeletal reconstructions ofCarnufex carolinensis, an ancient croc that walked 231 million years ago, according to Science News. However, these footprints are concrete proof that ancient crocodiles used to walk on two limbs.

These types of findings are crucial in learning about past life on our planet, even helping us better interpret other dinosaur fossils.
