Clinical trials are vital to offering and developing the most effective treatment options. However, there are large disparities in enrollment across race, ethnicity, geography, and type of cancer care center. Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in Baton Rouge, LA uses local partnerships, culturally tailored outreach, and workforce innovation to drive sustainable and equitable participation in clinical trials. Minorities now make up 21% of their clinical trial participation, surpassing the national average. Following these meaningful gains in attracting local minority populations and underserved communities to take part in clinical trials, the Mary Bird Perkins research team received a grant to further support this work. In this episode of CANCER BUZZ, Victor Lin, MD, PhD, research medical director at Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center, shares strategies for success in their community, including awareness campaigns and partnerships. CANCER BUZZ also speaks with TaeJeanne “TJ” Taylor-Lawrence, RN, registered nurse and patient navigator, about building relationships and supporting patients in clinical trials. “We really, really have to be thinking, from a trial design standpoint, about the barriers that we're throwing up in the name of trying to keep the science and the data clean.” - Victor Lin, MD, PhD “There's been this long-standing perception that cancer clinical trials are really the domain of only academic cancer centers. But I think increasingly we're finding that ... community cancer centers can be more nimble and are perfectly capable of running the same trials and seeing these patients where they live.” - Victor Lin, MD, PhD “I think that representation builds trust. If people don't see themselves in this process, whether it's in the data, whether it's in the staff, or any of the outreach programs that we have, they're just less likely to believe that this is for them. In my community, black and brown communities especially, I think there's a deep need to feel seen, respected, and understood. When a patient sees someone that looks like them or shares their background talking about clinical trials, I think that that shifts the energy.” - TaeJeanne “TJ” Taylor-Lawrence, RN “If the research does not reflect all of us, the solutions won't either.” - TaeJeanne “TJ” Taylor-Lawrence, RN Victor Lin, MD, PhD Research Medical Director Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center Baton Rouge, LA TaeJeanne “TJ” Taylor-Lawrence, RN Registered Nurse Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center Baton Rouge, LA Resources: ACCC Community Oncology Research Institute (ACORI) Bringing Cancer Research to the Community: Strategic Approaches to Representative Oncology Clinical Trial Design Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center Receives $400,000 Grant to Continue Expansion of Nationally-Recognized Clinical Trials Program

Unlocking Innovation: The Alzheimer's Insights AI Prize and Its Impact on Healthcare There are currently more than 55 million people worldwide living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Recent breakthroughs in new treatments and diagnostics provide hope, but there is potential to accelerate the pace of discovery and development. Last year, StartUp Health, in partnership with the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation's (ADDF) Diagnostics Accelerator (DxA) and Gates Ventures, the private office of Bill Gates, launched the Alzheimer's Moonshot. This initiative breaks down silos and fosters meaningful collaboration between mission-aligned founders, funders, and partners, accelerating progress in preventing, managing, and curing Alzheimer's and related dementias through the support of entrepreneurial innovation. Now, the Alzheimer's Disease Data Initiative (AD Data Initiative) is backing visionary AI solutions to accelerate Alzheimer's research with the launch of a new million-dollar prize competition. The goal is to leverage agentic AI – AI that can plan, reason, and act autonomously – to help drive breakthroughs in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias research. Gregory Moore, MD, PhD, senior advisor to Gates Ventures and the Alzheimer's Disease Data Initiative, sat down with us to share how you can join the competition to harness AI to radically accelerate Alzheimer's disease research. The Alzheimer's Insights AI Prize offers $1M to the winner for the agentic AI solution that can generate a powerful leap in the pace, scale, and reach of ADRD research. Drawing from his unique background in both engineering and medicine, Dr. Moore discusses how AI could dramatically accelerate drug discovery and clinical trials by up to 50%. The initiative aims to break down traditional research barriers by harmonizing diverse data sets, from genomics to neuroimaging, making breakthroughs more accessible to the global scientific community. The Alzheimer's Insights AI Prize competition semi-finalist teams will be selected to present at a pitch event alongside the Clinical Trials on Alzheimer's Disease (CTAD) Conference in San Diego this December, where innovators worldwide will present their ideas to a distinguished panel of judges from tech, academia, and venture capital. From there, up to three finalist teams will be invited to a final event at the AD/PD International Conference next March in Copenhagen, Denmark.

In this episode of Stanford Legal, host Professor Pamela Karlan interviews her Stanford Law School colleague Professor Lisa Larrimore Ouellette about actions by the Trump administration that Ouellette says are undermining scientific research and jeopardizing America's longstanding global leadership in medicine and innovation. Drawing on an essay she penned for Just Security, Ouellette explains how decades of bipartisan support for federally funded science—an engine of American innovation since World War II—is now at risk. From canceling grants already approved through peer review, to capping essential “indirect cost” reimbursements, she details how these moves threaten not just labs and universities but also patients, whose clinical trials are being abruptly halted. Ouellette also highlights a second front in her current scholarship: how drug development policy can be better aligned with public health needs. As a member of a National Academies committee, she recently co-authored a report showing that both private investment and federal funding often fail to prioritize diseases causing the greatest suffering.

While AI represents a significant advancement in efficiency for early-stage drug discovery, it won't dramatically change the 90% clinical trial failure rate. Most failures stem from fundamental gaps in biological understanding rather then the processes where AI is able to have the most impact.The discussion highlights AI's strengths and ability to reduce preclinical costs. However, they caution that AI faces significant limitations in predicting complex biological properties like toxicity due to insufficient data, and regulatory acceptance of AI-only safety assessments remains unlikely, meaning traditional clinical trials will continue to be necessary.This episode is presented in partnership with Cresset.HostLori Ellis, Head of Insights, BioSpaceGuestsMutlu Dogruel, VP of AI, CressetMark Mackey, CSO, CressetDisclaimer: The views expressed in this discussion by guests are their own and do not represent those of their organizations.

Enriqueta Felip, MD, PhD - Targeting TROP2 in Advanced NSCLC: What Do We Know From Recent Clinical Trials?
Send us a textDr. Michael Koren joins Kevin Geddings to explain how having a conversation with a medical professional who is tuned into your personal situation can help you understand the confusing and sometimes counterintuitive world of medical information. Cardiologist Dr. Koren uses the examples of coronary calcium scores and total cholesterol levels, which must be interpreted in the context of individual factors, such as age and HDL/LDL ratio. They then discuss clinical research and how the experience in a clinical research setting is one of shared knowledge, where medical professionals take the time to explain everything you need to know about your health.Be a part of advancing science by participating in clinical research.Have a question for Dr. Koren?

Neurologist Michelle Monje studies the close relationship between cancer and the nervous system, particularly in an aggressive brain cancer that often strikes in childhood. Her research shows that the cancer cells are electrically integrated into the brain itself and these connections actually help the cancer to grow. Monje and collaborators have now developed an immunotherapy that has shown great promise in mice and early human trials. One patient had a “complete response” and is cancer-free four years after treatment, Monje tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In this episode of It Takes Balls, 29-year-old Christopher Beck shares his intense and ongoing fight against a rare and aggressive form of testicular cancer - one that didn't even begin in his testicle.Christopher opens up about the strange onset of symptoms that eventually led to a stunning diagnosis: embryonal carcinoma presenting as a retroperitoneal mass. Despite having no tumors in his testicles, pathology confirmed testicular cancer, placing him in a rare category of patients with extragonadal germ cell tumors.What follows is a relentless journey: four rounds of BEP chemotherapy, followed by a post-chemo RPLND at Indiana University. Christopher thought he was in the clear until new scans revealed a recurrence a few months later. What began as one battle turned into two, then three. He entered a clinical trial and underwent high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell rescue.Now, Christopher is enrolled in a cutting-edge CAR T-cell therapy trial - a hopeful step forward. He shares candid reflections on the mental weight of recurrence, the isolation of dealing with a rare cancer, and the importance of keeping faith while making space for both grief and gratitude.Christopher also speaks openly about how cancer reshaped his identity, tested his relationships, and pushed him to live more deliberately, with purpose, presence, and patience.Join The Ball Room:https://www.testicularcancerawarenessfoundation.org/theballroomWant to be a guest?

Send us a textDr. Michael Koren Joins Kevin Geddings to discuss how the current political situation in Washington, D.C. is interfering with clinical research. They discuss the Vaxart trial, that is looking at the next generation of oral COVID vaccines, and how it has been affected by the Trump administration's inconsistent orders regarding vaccines. Dr. Koren points out that the Vaxart trial doesn't actually use mRNA and is poised to be a solution beyond this technology, but that the administration has stopped (at least temporarily) this research anyway.Be a part of advancing science by participating in clinical research.Have a question for Dr. Koren?

My guest is Dr. Nirao Shah, MD, PhD, a professor of psychiatry, behavioral sciences and neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We discuss how the brains of males and females differ and how those differences arise from different genes and hormones during fetal development, in childhood and adulthood. We discuss what drives male- versus female-specific behaviors and how hormonal fluctuations across the lifespan, including puberty, the menstrual cycle, menopause and aging – affect behavior, cognition and health. Additionally, we discuss how biology relates to gender identity and the impact of hormone therapies on brain circuits that regulate mating, parenting and social bonding.
