Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the submission of a comprehensive product development plan to the U.S. FDA for the treatment of external squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in horses. The submission was made under the Investigational New Animal Drug (INAD) program and seeks concurrence under the Minor Use in Major Species (MUMS) designation. The FDA recently granted MUMS designation to Medicus Pharma's dissolvable Doxorubicin-containing microneedle array, which is specifically designed to treat external SCC in equine patients. This recognition enables the company to pursue regulatory pathways designed to support treatments for rare conditions in major animal species. Dr. Bokhari explained that SCC is a skin tumor commonly affecting adult or aging horses with white or partially white coats. Breeds such as Appaloosa, Belgian, American Paint, and Pinto are particularly vulnerable. The incidence of SCC in horses is estimated at 2-3%, with the U.S. horse population currently ranging from 6.6 to 7.25 million animals. Current treatment options involve surgical removal of larger tumors, cryotherapy for smaller lesions, and localized or topical chemotherapy. Some cases are also managed with oral medications like piroxicam to slow cancer recurrence. Bokhari noted that the company's microneedle platform could offer a less invasive and more targeted treatment alternative. With the development plan now submitted, Medicus Pharma is aiming to align with the FDA on next steps to bring this innovative treatment to market, providing a new option for veterinarians and horse owners dealing with equine SCC. #proactiveinvestors #nasdaq #mdcx #tsxv #mdcx #pharma #Biotech #CancerTreatment #ClinicalTrials #FDAApproval #SkinCancer #HealthcareInnovation #Investing #MedicalResearch #SkinCancer #BasalCellCarcinoma #BiotechNews #CancerResearch #UAEHealth #NonInvasiveTherapy #Doxorubicin #ClinicalTrials #HealthcareInnovation VeterinaryOncology #HorseCancer #SquamousCellCarcinoma #FDAApproval #AnimalHealth

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the black smoke rising from the Sistine Chapel and the significance of the papal conclave in Rome. He reflects on the power and beauty of the Sistine Chapel, expressing sympathy for tourists now unable to visit due to the conclave. Brett shifts focus to domestic issues, criticizing the Biden administration for expanding federal surveillance to include "concerning behavior" rather than criminal acts. He alleges that symbols like the Betsy Ross flag, Gadsden flag, and even Catholic imagery have been flagged by federal agencies as potential signs of extremism. Highlighting past government actions against the Tea Party, We're joined by The Coach Matt Doherty to talk about leadership and whether America can truly be made great again. Drawing from his coaching experience, Coach Doherty uses sports analogies to frame political division as dysfunction within a team—arguing that when parts of a team pull in different directions, it’s hard to reach full potential. He suggests the left’s relentless opposition to Donald Trump has created a hostile environment, preventing national unity. Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this Wednesday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo talk about the unfolding situation involving former Charlotte City Councilman Tariq Bokhari and CMPD Chief Johnny Jennings, as well as the political dynamics surrounding Senator Thom Tillis. They delve into the $300,000 settlement connected to internal CMPD disputes, questioning the timing and implications, especially with Bokhari recently leaving office. The discussion shifts to how this precedent might affect future city matters. They also explore Senator Tillis’s upcoming reelection prospects, noting the tension within his own party and the possibility of a heated primary. Bo highlights Tillis’s past willingness to cross the aisle and the potential impact of Trump-era politics on his future. Bo also shares what he and Beth have coming up Thursday on Good Morning BT!

Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major strategic move: the company has entered into a binding letter of agreement to acquire Antev Ltd., a clinical-stage biotech company. Antev is developing Teverelix, a next-generation GnRH antagonist aimed at treating cardiovascular high-risk prostate cancer patients and patients with acute urinary retention (AUR) due to enlarged prostate. Bokhari highlighted that the acquisition will significantly strengthen Medicus Pharma's drug development portfolio, positioning Teverelix as a first-in-class therapeutic to prevent AUR recurrence and address prostate cancer among patients with elevated cardiovascular risk—together representing a combined market opportunity of approximately $6 billion. Antev's program includes an FDA-approved Phase 2b study, which is designed to randomize 390 men after successfully weaning off catheterization. This is highly relevant given that 85% of the nearly one million AUR episodes annually in the U.S. occur in men over the age of 60. Roughly 30% of these patients experience a recurrent episode within six months, creating a standalone $2 billion annual market for preventive treatment. Teverelix, therefore, offers a critical and differentiated solution in a space underserved by existing therapies, with the potential to redefine standards of care for aging male populations. The acquisition also aligns with Medicus Pharma's mission to build a diversified pipeline targeting significant unmet medical needs with strong commercial potential. #proactiveinvestors #nasdaq #mdcx #tsxv #mdcx #pharma #Biotech #CancerTreatment #ClinicalTrials #FDAApproval #SkinCancer #HealthcareInnovation #Investing #MedicalResearch

We discuss the striking similarities between the 1971 Bangladesh movement and the 2024 protests, the role of West Pakistan, the rise of freedom fighters, and the impact of student movements.

Dr. Raza Bokhari, Executive Chairman and CEO of Medicus Pharma, has developed a novel, non-invasive treatment for basal cell carcinoma, the most common form of skin cancer. This cost-effective transdermal Skinject patch delivers a chemotherapeutic agent applied in a clinician's office over three sessions to remove the lesion, potentially avoiding the need for Mohs surgery, the current standard of care. Medicus is incorporating AI and advanced imaging techniques in its clinical trials to improve diagnosis and monitoring of the treatment's effectiveness.   Raza explains, "The gold standard to treat basal cell carcinoma of the skin is surgical intervention, generally speaking, all solid tumors to eliminate cancer if it is caught in the early stage. The treatment regimen is that you surgically take the malignant cells out. The same is true for basal cell carcinoma of the skin. It is a slow-growing cancer. It appears on areas of the body that are exposed to ultraviolet radiation, which is being exposed primarily to the sun. When the lesion appears and is diagnosed, the treatment available is what is called Mohs surgical procedure, which is a micrographic go around the lesion of the cancer and just curate out the cancer cells in a surgical suite done by an experienced surgeon."   "We are trying to disrupt by delivering a known chemotherapeutic agent through these uniquely designed, cellulose-based microneedle arrays, which can penetrate the dermis and deliver a chemotherapeutic agent at the site of the lesion and kill the cancer cells, thereby eliminating the need of surgical intervention." "It is currently in clinical trial, but post-approval, it is ready to commercialize. We hope that the dermatologists who are also trained to do Mohs surgery before scheduling the surgery, which usually takes about six to eight weeks to schedule, can also invite the patients to, in an office setting, take our patch and have it placed over the site of the lesion for 30 minutes over three settings. So if a cancer is diagnosed today, you schedule Mohs surgery, which is considered the gold standard six to eight weeks out because that is the wait time. The average wait time in the United States is about six to eight weeks. You could provide an option to have these three sittings one week apart of 30 minutes of our patch and come back for an examination on week four or five. If the lesion has been cured and the skin has become clear, then there is no need for surgical intervention. If, for some reason, our treatment fails, the patient can go on and get more surgery done and eventually become cancer-free." #MedicusPharma #PatchCure #BasalCellPatch #PatchTherapy #BCC #BasalCellCarcinoma #SkinCancer #Biotech #Dermatology #ClinicalTrials #Phase2Trial #SkinCancerTreatment medicuspharma.com Download the transcript here

In this edition of The New Lines Institute Middle East Center's Post-Assad Podcast series, Middle East Center co-director Nicholas A. Heras sits down with Dr. Kamran Bokhari to develop a strategic forecast for Syria in the upcoming year. Dr. Bokhari is a Senior Director at the Institute who is a specialist on Eurasian politics with a particular focus on the Middle East with over three decades experience in the intelligence analysis community providing strategic assessments on global events. A distinguished professor at the Institute's M.A. in Strategy and Policy program, Dr. Bokhari also teaches a course on Central Asia at Georgetown University's Security Studies Program. Heras and Dr. Bokhari investigate the key dynamics that will shape post-Assad Syria in 2025, and present especially important context on events in Syria that are not being widely discussed that will be essential to understanding the trajectory of the country.

In Episode 394 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with geopolitical analyst and forecaster Kamran Bokhari about the fall of Damascus and the implications of Bashar al-Assad's ouster in Syria for the balance of power in the Middle East. Kamran last came on the podcast a year ago to discuss the violence ignited by Hamas' October 7th attacks, the nature and scope of Iranian involvement, and how various regional actors, including Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the Houthis, and Hezbollah were exploiting the growing disorder for their own advantage as the Biden administration struggled to stabilize a region that was on the verge of another major war. That war has seemingly come and gone, leaving Iran's influence network along the Shia crescent from Damascus to Beirut, along with its proxies and affiliates in utter devastation or full-on retreat. Assad's departure and the fall of his regime in Syria are the equivalent of a geopolitical earthquake and are already dramatically changing the balance of power in the Middle East. Kamran and Demetri spend the first hour of this episode recapping these recent events, enumerating the key players who expect a seat at the table for any negotiation over Syria's future, why the center of gravity in the Sunni Muslim world is shifting from Riyadh to Ankara, and what all of this means for Iran and the strategic vision that has guided the Islamic revolution since 1979. In the second hour, Kofinas and Bokhari go one by one through every major country that will be materially affected by the outcome in Syria. They discuss the consequences and opportunities for Turkey, the new threats and challenges posed to Israel, what this new reality means for the Saudis, the interests of the United States and Russia, and why el-Sisi's regime in Egypt may be the next major Arab government to come under pressure in the years to come.

In this episode we talk with Dr. Warris Bokhari and Julie Baak to tackle the complex world of insurance denials and patient advocacy. Dr. Bokhari shares his journey from working within the insurance industry to creating Claimable, a platform aimed at empowering patients to fight back against unfair denials. Julie Baak adds her expertise as a practice manager, highlighting the uphill battle of navigating appeals in the face of insurance company bureaucracy. Takeaways: The Reality of Insurance Denials: The episode dives into the staggering number of claims denied each year and the systemic issues that make appeals an uphill battle for patients and healthcare providers. Claimable's Mission: Dr. Bokhari explains how Claimable uses AI to help patients craft compelling appeals, leveraging personal stories and clinical data to confront insurance companies effectively. The Power of Patient Stories: Julie Baak emphasizes the importance of patients taking an active role in appeals, as appeals coming directly from patients carry more weight with insurers than those from physicians. The Role of Humor in Advocacy: From satirical videos to cease-and-desist letters, the episode highlights how humor and public engagement can bring attention to the flaws in the healthcare system. A Call for Transparency: The conversation underscores the need for greater transparency and accountability in how insurance companies handle claims and appeals, advocating for systemic reform. — Want to Learn About Dr. Warris Bokhari & Julie Baak: TikTok: @getclaimable Instagram: @getclaimable, @c_money636 X: @GetClaimable, @ArthritisSTL — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Israel's decimation of Hezbollah's leadership and war-making capabilities has paved the way for a massive altering of the geopolitical landscape in the Middle East. After decades on the offensive, Iran has suffered a major setback in its strategy for the region.

The world seems like it is staring into the abyss, with conflicts breaking out across Eurasia. Does this mean that we are entering a new global conflict where the three great powers – the United States, Russia, and China – are entering into direct conflict? What role are smaller powers such as Israel and Iran, playing in all of this? And what do the political systems in the great powers tell us about what comes next? These are the big questions that Dr. Kamran Bokhari tries to answer in this conversation. Dr. Kamran Bokhari is the Senior Director of the Eurasian Security and Prosperity portfolio at the New Lines Institute. He served as Director of the Analytical Development Department from 2019 to 2023. Dr. Bokhari is also a national security and foreign policy specialist at the University of Ottawa's Professional Development Institute.

Allum Bokhari, managing director at the Foundation for Freedom Online, joins James Poulos to discuss how social media platforms quickly turned to censor any mention of the attempted assassination on Donald Trump. Since the peak of censorship in 2020, platforms like X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and others have increasingly bowed to advertiser pressure. Bokhari discusses an upcoming report by the Foundation for Freedom Online that exposes this censorship and the power advertisers hold over free speech. The World Federation of Advertisers, a group that represents 90% of all advertising spent worldwide, has financially throttled media companies that don't comply with its “brand safety.” A cabal of six global advertising agencies are blacklisting conservative media groups and even X itself in order to avoid mass consumer boycotts. Elon Musk transformed Twitter into X and has challenged the establishment by allowing new elites to push back against the old financial elites. Mark Zuckerberg's recent support for Trump also shows the shifting sentiment in Silicon Valley toward Trump.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In Episode 348 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Kamran Bokhari. Kamran is the Senior Director of the Eurasian Security & Prosperity Portfolio at the New Lines Institute for Strategy & Policy. He has served at the U.S. State Department and as a Senior Consultant with the World Bank. Kamran came on the podcast three months ago to discuss the violence ignited by Hamas' October 7th attacks against Israel and the nature and scope of Iran's involvement. Demetri asked him back on to re-examine how the war in Gaza is going and whether he still thinks that we could be headed for another major war in the Middle East. They spent the first hour discussing Israel's bombardment and offensive in Gaza, the strategic objectives of Israel's leaders, and whether they're achieving those objectives. They also discuss Netanyahu's political future and that of his governing coalition, the future of Israeli politics, and whether any hope remains for a negotiated peace process that could lead to a viable and independent Palestinian state. In the second hour, they broaden their focus to encompass the larger Middle East, including Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the Houthis, and Hezbollah. They discuss how all of these different actors are repositioning themselves by exploiting the growing disorder for their own advantage as the Biden administration struggles to stabilize a region that may be on the verge of another major war.

In Episode 332 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with geopolitical analyst and forecaster Kamran Bokhari. Kamran is the Senior Director of the Eurasian Security & Prosperity Portfolio at the New Lines Institute for Strategy & Policy and has served at the U.S. State Department and as a Senior Consultant with the World Bank. The subjects of today's conversation concern the escalating violence ignited by last weekend's brutal attacks on Israeli civilians by Hamas, as well as the Israeli Defense Forces' ongoing counteroffensive and bombing of the Gaza Strip. Kamran and Demetri spend the first hour of their conversation discussing the attacks, what we know about their original scope and intention, what role Iran may have played in helping plan the attacks, and whether or not we can expect Hezbollah to open a second front of attack in the north of Israel, as well as other potential pathways of escalation that could rope in the United States and turn this into a larger, regional conflict. In the second hour, Bokhari and Kofinas look at how the events transpiring in the Middle East fit into the story that Demetri has been telling on this podcast for years about the fragmentation of the liberal rules-based international order and the emergence of a new multipolarity where nation states will seek to resolve long-standing border or ethnic disputes by force as everyone jostles to reposition themselves favorably ahead of the emergence of a new status quo. What this means for the future of Israel, Iran, Turkey, China, Russia, and the United States, is all part of that discussion.
