It wasn't even two weeks into the new year when the Food and Drug Administration made their first FDA approval. In this case, it was a Keytruda regimen for certain patients with gynecologic cancers. We at CURE® spoke with an the primary investigator on the study leading to the approval about what patients need to know about the latest new indication.  Also last week, we highlighted the Lymphedema Treatment Act and spoke to an expert about the new law.  Another story in the regulatory space: the FDA granted a Fast Track designation to speed up the review of a novel drug used to treat patients with relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL.  Finally, research from the American Cancer Society showed that Medicaid expansion states tended to have improved post-surgical outcomes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.   Keytruda Plus CRT Offers ‘Better Chance of Cure' in Advanced Cervical Cancer The Food and Drug Administration has granted approval for Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in combination with chemoradiotherapy for the treatment of stages 3 to 4A cervical cancer, marking the first approval of an anti-PD-1 therapy with chemotherapy for this patient population and the third FDA approval for treating cervical cancer with Keytruda.  This week, I spoke with Dr. Linda R. Duska, a gynecologic oncologist and principal investigator on the study leading to the approval, who discussed the KEYNOTE-A18 trial, which enrolled 1,060 patients and demonstrated a 30% decrease in progression for those receiving the combination of Keytruda and chemotherapy. The overall survival data is not yet mature, but the treatment showed a 41% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death. While Dr. Duska emphasized that cervical cancer is preventable thanks to a safe and effective vaccine, she said that for patients with the disease, this new regimen is particularly exciting.  January is also Cervical Cancer Awareness month, so definitely stay tuned to curetoday.com for more of our coverage on the disease.  Medicare Must Now Cover Lymphedema Treatment Garments The Lymphedema Treatment Act, signed into federal law on Dec. 23, 2022, is now in effect as of Jan. 1, 2024, allowing Medicare coverage for doctor-prescribed compression supplies for patients experiencing. The bill encompasses standard and custom-fitted gradient compression garments and other approved items prescribed by healthcare professionals to treat lymphedema. Now basically what that means is that patients insured by Medicare Part B can now have their lymphedema garments covered by insurance.  This coverage is expected to ease financial burdens on patients, especially as these garments can be expensive.  I spoke with Joanna Fawzy Doran, CEO of Triage Cancer, who emphasized the importance of patient and provider awareness about coverage rights, appealing denials and navigating the process. Although the law does not mandate private insurers to cover compression sleeves for lymphedema patients, Doran noted that Medicare's coverage sets a precedent for broader access in the future. FDA Grants NX-5948 Fast Track Designation for R/R CLL, SLL The FDA has granted Fast Track designation to NX-5948, a novel drug, for adults with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who have previously undergone two lines of therapy, including a BTK inhibitor and a BCL2 inhibitor.  Fast Track designation aims to expedite the development and review of drugs addressing serious conditions with unmet medical needs.  NX-5948 is currently in a Phase 1a/1b clinical trial, with initial findings presented at the 2023 American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting indicating safety, tolerance, and clinical activity. The drug showed no dose-limiting toxicities or treatment-related side effects leading to discontinuation, and the most common side effects were purpura/contusion, nausea, and thrombocytopenia.  Medicaid Expansion May Decrease Early Mortality in Some With NSCLC States with Medicaid expansion tended to have a significant decrease in early, postoperative mortality from non-small cell lung cancer, according to recent research.  The research focused on nearly 15,000 patients undergoing surgery for NSCLC, with 62.1% residing in states supporting Medicaid expansion. The study found notable reductions in 30-day and 90-day postoperative mortality in patients with stages 1, 2, or 3 NSCLC in expansion states. Patients in non-expansion states were found to be younger, non-Hispanic Black, uninsured, and with comorbidities.  The study also evaluated changes in early mortality before and after the Affordable Care Act (ACA) implementation, showing a decrease in the 30-day mortality rate in expansion states from 0.97% to 0.26% after the ACA. Now, advocates, including the American Cancer Society, continue to emphasize the importance of expanding Medicaid eligibility to improve health outcomes.  For more news on cancer updates, research and education, don't forget to subscribe to CURE®'s newsletters here.

In this episode, The Layman's Doctor speaks with blogger Emma Lewis about her experience with cervical cancer and its recurrence. Emma had her first diagnosis in the 1970s when she was in her early 20's. This is before the Human Papillomavirus vaccine was created. Interestingly, her medical records were used in research surrounding cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women and is easily detectable with yearly Pap smears. Now with the HPV vaccine, we can prevent cervical cancer. Both men and women benefit from getting this vaccine. Speak with your healthcare provider about getting vaccinated.

In this Podcast we discuss how Enfield Council lacks a digital strategy but where individual councillors have developed their own. The digital age has profound implications for local authorities in the way they use big data for community benefit and for the way they communicate and engage. So why does Enfield do it so badly This webinar will look at how Enfield can embrace the digital world more effectively as well as look at some examples of local authorities that already have. We will also look at how individual Councillors have taken things into their own hands and developed innovative ways of working digitally like the Conference recently on Cervical Cancer Awareness organised by two councillors and a recent ex councillor and organised uniquely across Party lines. Also James Hockney will join us and tell us how he as a Councillor has arranged online surgeries and recently engaged in an innovative online Ward Forum We will look at how important these initiatives are but also how important it is for Enfield as a whole to have a digital strategy that is central to every Council Department and that engages with community stakeholders and follows good practice. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/globalnet21/message
