"Unlike our cancer indications where we use these medications often to activate the immune system to target cancerous cells, in noncancer indications, the goal is really to either suppress an overactive immune or inflammatory cells or modulate the immune system. Immune modulation by use of chemotherapy and immunotherapy can help reduce abnormal inflammation, decrease autoantibody production, and also can alter T-cell and B-cell activity," ONS member Kelsey Miller, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BC, OCN®, clinical nurse specialist in oncology and infusion therapy at Reading Hospital in West Reading, PA, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about chemotherapy and immunotherapy for noncancer indications.

Highlights From This Episode "The most common immunotherapy agent that's well known to both oncology and other autoimmune disorders is rituximab. And that is used for rheumatoid arthritis, granulomatous, and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. And then it also has many off-label indications for other autoimmune disorders, such as lupus and multiple sclerosis. It's also used in immune thrombocytopenia and Sjogren's condition." TS 3:28 "Two common chemotherapy agents that come to mind that are used in lower doses for noncancer conditions are methotrexate, which helps modify the underlying disease process to reduce inflammation and preserve organ and joint function. And that's most commonly used rheumatology-wise first-line for rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. A second chemotherapy agent that's well known to oncology is cyclophosphamide, and that really serves as a powerful immunosuppressant for conditions such as ANCA-associated vasculitis and severe lupus nephritis." TS 3:57 "When talking about the monoclonal antibody frequency, it's often shorter in our oncology indications. We may see it weekly, every 21 days, every 28 days—compared to our autoimmune disorders that are months in between. This is really due to cancer cells continuously proliferating, so we need to stop the growth and not allow residual cancer cells to remain. And for the monoclonal antibodies, for example, rituximab again, it's depleting B cells that contribute to autoantibody production and inflammation. So targeting that after one to two infusions, the peripheral B cells are often depleted within days to weeks because of how well the drug works, how targeted it is. Those effects may persist for 6–12 months or even longer." TS 8:39 "Infection prevention education—it's so important to get to know the patient to individualize your teaching. For example, you need to know what matters most of the patients when they go home. Are they taking care of their grandchildren? Do they love to go outside and garden and do mulching? Are they cleaning up their chicken coop? So those kind of things, as a nurse, you can then help tailor your education so you can help prevent infection in these patients because I don't think just standard run-of-the-mill infection prevention teaching is as beneficial as when you can individualize it for that patient." TS 17:33 "If organizations are going to allow non-oncology nurses to administer, we just want to make sure that there is an established process or a protocol to administer rescue medications. That may include what you're already doing if you have a change in patient condition—calling for activating that emergency response system if you're in an inpatient setting. When we look at our ambulatory infusion centers that may have non-oncology nurses administering, you still have to have that training and competency verification and also emergency medical equipment readily available. That would include oxygen and your rescue medications. For the non-oncology nurse, some key points are to make sure that you check on your patient throughout these infusions and have that conversation up front to report any symptoms, both big and small." TS 23:06 "For safe handling, there are many misconceptions that it differs between cancer and non-cancer. When I first started at our organization, even some providers may minimize the risk for low-dose oral chemotherapy. However, it's still metabolized and excreted through our bodily fluids. And we know that traditional chemotherapy, like methotrexate and cyclophosphamide, is cytotoxic. So if a patient's prescribed them for noncancer indications, you still need to cover the basics, like shared bathrooms, what to do if there's contaminated linen, and also bring up the topic of contraception to ensure that our patients and their partners remain safe and do not get exposed." TS 27:13

Limiting the side effects of cancer treatments has been an animating force in the field of oncology for many years, and there's been progress to report on that front, but what if you could target cancer tumors without using radiation or chemotherapy and instead generate heat from inside the tumor to kill cells? That's the quest of our guest today, Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green, whose promising research using lasers and nanoparticles to eliminate tumors received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA earlier this year. “The laser beam that we're using is low power like a laser pointer, and without activation by the laser, the nanoparticles are harmless. Both are targeted just at the site of the tumor so because we don't use systemic delivery, we avoid all of the systemic side effects,” she explains.Dr. Green is also the founder and president of the Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation, named for an aunt who raised her and who died of cancer without pursuing curative treatment because of her fear of the side effects. Shortly after, her aunt's husband also died of cancer, opting for treatments that took a heavy toll on his body. “At 22 years old, I saw the horrors of cancer and the horrors of cancer treatment and just felt in my heart that there has to be something better than this,” she tells host Michael Carrese.On this fascinating episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, we'll explore the science behind Dr. Green's approach, the challenges of raising the millions of dollars needed for human clinical trials, and rethinking the current funding landscape for cancer treatments.Mentioned in this episode:Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

"When you have benign conditions, we're actually treating 3 gray, so a significant difference [versus doses of 60 gray for brain cancer]. Typically, when you treat at a high dose, the goal is to destroy tissue, like cancer tissue or cancer cells. But when we give a low dose, the goal is actually to modulate inflammation. And what it does is it slows down those inflammatory cells or those cells that release the chemicals that cause pain and inflammation," Amanda Meyer, DNP, APRN, CNP, family nurse practitioner in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about radiation therapy for noncancer indications.

Highlights From This Episode "We always typically think of it as cancer treatment, but we can use radiation for noncancerous conditions, as well. And radiation was actually used for benign diseases right after the discovery of x-rays. By the 1920s it was used a lot for different types of musculoskeletal, dermatologic issues, and different types of inflammatory conditions. And over time, since the 1920s, we've actually really gotten a really good understanding of it." TS 1:37 "When we're looking at what are good candidate characteristics, we do typically like older patients, so patients over the age of 65. And the rationale behind that is we know that there is a potential for a secondary risk of a skin cancer about 20 to 30 years after getting low-dose radiation, like a basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer. The older the patient is, the less likely they are to have any adverse effects from that." TS 8:22 "When we do the low-dose radiation, they've tried other measures that haven't been successful. However, we don't want a patient who is so severe that they're ready for surgery, when they're bone on bone, because we know that radiation isn't as effective when they are that severe. So there's this sweet window where low-dose radiation works best in these patients." TS 9:39 "When we're treating with a little bit higher dose for like a Dupuytren's or a Ledderhose, because it's an anti-proliferative dose, those patients, they do get more skin redness, more dry skin. That's very temporary, and it resolves within a week or two after treatment. But really, we don't see any acute side effects. The long-term side effect of the radiation-induced malignancy, again, is a very low—0.05% according to some of the European guidelines." TS 12:34 "I really wish people appreciated how interdisciplinary this is. We need to get referrals from family medicine and from primary care and internal medicine and pain medicine physicians and inflammatory physicians and podiatry and pain specialists. And we really need to use this multidisciplinary approach to get earlier referrals for patients because there is this sweet window of time where low-dose radiation works the best." TS 18:40

Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong has been a pioneer, leading the way in cancer research. As the Founder,  Executive Chairman, Global Chief Medical & Technology Officer at ImmunityBio, Dr. Soon-Shiong is changing the paradigm in how to treat cancer. Our body needs a strong, healthy immune response to overcome cancer. Chemotherapy weakens the immune system significantly, essentially wiping out our body's best defense of cancer and tumors, the natural killer cell. The natural killer cells in our body destroy and kill cancer cells, without them, we are fighting a losing battle. Dr. Soon-Shiong's invention Anktiva, is a superagonist fusion complex that selectively activates Natural Killer (NK) cells and memory T cells enabling immune amplification rather than immune suppression. This treatment has shown long term success with over a million pages of data. This data is sitting in the hands of the FDA, but unfortunately our FDA has not reviewed it. Saudi Arabia on the other hand, has chosen longevity science and healthspan as a measure of GDP and has approved Anktiva for use in the country. This 30 minute outpatient procedure is now available in Saudi Arabia for patients dealing with cancer. Will the success of this treatment in Saudi Arabia convince the FDA to approve this treatment in America or will Americans be forced into medical tourism to treat cancer successfully and save lives?

Getting a cancer diagnosis today can mean something very different than it meant a few decades ago.  Cancer is still deadly. But thanks to advances in detection and treatment, cancer for some people has turned into a manageable condition. A report from the American Cancer Society out this week shows that for the first time that the five-year survival rate for all cancers has reached 70 percent. Tumors are being found at earlier stages, when treatment can be more effective. Surgery and radiation have gotten more precise.  Researchers have refined their understanding of different types of cancers and developed new drugs that zero in on the unique biology of specific tumors.Maybe most importantly, researchers are figuring out how to use the body's own immune system to fight cancer in ways that doctors couldn't have imagined 20 years ago.  MPR News host Angela Davis talks with her guests about how cancer treatments are improving.Guests: Dr. Emil Lou is a medical oncologist and professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School who sees patients at M Health Fairview Masonic Cancer Clinic. He specializes in gastrointestinal cancers, such as colorectal and pancreas cancers, and is also involved in cancer research.  Dr. Rachel L McCaffrey is a breast surgical oncologist at Allina Health who specializes in treating breast cancer.

In cancer research, the “seed and soil” hypothesis posits that the tumor is like a seed of misbehaving cells taking root in the body. Whether it grows—and where it grows—depends on the conditions, or soil. Since this hypothesis was proposed more than 100 years ago, most research and treatments have focused on the seed, or tumor. For nearly 50 years, Rakesh Jain has been studying the soil. But in a seed-focused field, his work was seen as wasteful and radical. Now, that very same research has led to seven FDA-approved treatments for diseases including lung and liver cancer, and earned him a National Medal of Science in 2016. Host Flora Lichtman talks with Jain about how his fringe idea led to lifesaving cancer treatments. Guest: Dr. Rakesh K. Jain studies the biology of tumors at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital as a professor of radiation oncology.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Board-certified urologist Dr. Jason B. Carter explains his role in the diagnosis of testicular cancer."It's important to understand that when you have a diagnosis like testicular cancer, to some degree, the urologist may be the quarterback in the beginning. With testicular cancer, the urologist is going to be the one you meet, get the initial procedures done, and do the post-op follow-up."I'm very fortunate to have an excellent radiation oncologist that I work with, and very fortunate to have a couple of very, very good medical oncologists that I work with."Definitely anytime you have any kind of cancer, including testicular cancer, it is always a team approach." He shares his insights on treating testicular patients at Unity Urology, his practice in East Tennessee. He has been providing quality urologic care since 2003 and opened Unity Urology in 2006 in Greenville, Tennessee. Other urologic conditions to know about: Dr. Carter talks about other urologic conditions such as low testosterone, other hormone therapies for men and women, infertility, incontinence, and erectile disfunction. He is a medical advisor for Aeroflow Urology.Dr. Carter's medical degree is from East Tennessee University. He completed a residency at the University Hospital and clinics in Columbia, Missouri.
