In the past five years, the use of immunotherapeutic agents for advanced cancers has emerged as a promising alternative to tyrosine kinase inhibitors and chemotherapy, making it an exciting time to be practicing oncology. In this episode, Dr. Tyler Sandow interviews oncology experts about the landscape of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the current state of immunotherapy treatments. He is joined by medical oncologists Dr. Jonathan Mizrah, Dr. Lingling Du, and Dr. Adam Burgoyne, as well as interventional oncologist Dr. Zachary Berman. Physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants can follow this link to earn CME / CE credits for completing an accredited learning activity related to this discussion: https://www.cmeuniversity.com/course/take/125737 --- This podcast is supported by an educational grant from: AstraZeneca https://www.astrazeneca.com/our-therapy-areas/oncology.html With additional support from: Boston Scientific https://www.bostonscientific.com/en-US/medical-specialties/interventional-radiology/interventional-oncology.html --- SYNPOSIS Drs. Burgoyne and Mizrahi provide a primer on immunotherapy and explain how they communicate the principles of this treatment to their patients. Dr. Du discusses the Imbrave clinical trial and how recent studies have shown improved overall survival when immunotherapeutic agents are used, especially when multiple agents targeting various pathways are employed. When choosing between different regimens, the doctors consider factors such as the patient's underlying liver function, symptom burden, and prior treatments. Importantly, the doctors also discuss contraindications to immunotherapy, including a history of organ transplant, autoimmune disease, and poor performance status—all of which put patients at high risk for deterioration with this treatment. The treatment of patients with poor liver function remains controversial, as underlying cirrhosis may prevent the recovery of liver function. Dr. Berman outlines recent clinical trials studying the effects of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with immunotherapy. Finally, the doctors discuss the future of HCC treatment and the benefits of continued innovation in both interventional and medical oncology. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction to Immunotherapy 04:32 - Notable Clinical Trials 13:39 - HCC Etiology and Immunotherapy Outcomes 18:43 - Contraindications for Immunotherapy 23:05 - Adverse Effects from Treatment 25:14 - Combination Therapy 36:22 - Considerations for Immunotherapy Dosing 40:26 - The Future of HCC Treatment --- RESOURCES Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma, IMbrave150 Trial (Finn et al, 2020): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32402160/ Tremelimumab plus Durvalumab in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma, HIMALAYA Trial (Abou-Alfa et al, 2022): https://evidence.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/EVIDoa2100070 Nivolumab versus sorafenib in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (CheckMate 459): a randomised, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 trial (Yau, 2022): https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanonc/article/PIIS1470-2045(21)00604-5/abstract Nivolumab (NIVO) plus ipilimumab (IPI) vs lenvatinib (LEN) or sorafenib (SOR) as first-line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC): First results from CheckMate 9DW (Galle, 2024): https://ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO.2024.42.17_suppl.LBA4008 Randomized Phase 3 LEAP-012 Study: Transarterial Chemoembolization With or Without Lenvatinib Plus Pembrolizumab for Intermediate-Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma Not Amenable to Curative Treatment (Llovet, 2022): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35119481/ Find this episode on BackTable.com for more resources.

Carbapenemase producers are a nightmare for clinicians. Not only are they resistant to carbapenems, a last resort β-lactam antibiotic, they are notorious for developing multidrug and pandrug resistances resulting in limited to no treatment options.  In this episode of Communicable, hosts Angela Huttner and Thomas Tängdén sit down with Dr. David Paterson (National University of Singapore) and Dr. Souha Kanj (American University of Beirut Medical Center, Lebanon), two ID physicians from regions where carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae or CRE, and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter are widespread.  The episode begins with the history and emergence of CRE and reviews current epidemiology, diagnosis (including the Ambler classification of β-lactamases) and treatment options. Lessons and insights from personal experiences are shared to reflect the current clinical challenges caused by carbapenem-resistant bacteria and the importance of infection prevention and control measures to mitigate further spread. This episode was edited by Kathryn Hostettler and peer-reviewed by Dr. Filippo Medioli of Policlinico di Modena, Italy.

While GLP-1 agonists continue to gain popularity in the medical management of diabetes and obesity, Dr. Cliff Weiss is exploring bariatric arterial embolization (BAE) as an adjunctive therapy to help patients sustain weight loss. Dr. Weiss, the Director of IR Research at Johns Hopkins, joins the show to discuss the techniques and impacts of BAE for obesity treatment. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Reflow Medical https://www.reflowmedical.com/ --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Weiss outlines his initial research interest in gastric embolization of the fundus to reduce ghrelin production. He began by studying the use of sclerosants for embolization but later shifted to using embolic spheres. BAE involves the targeted embolization of the left gastric artery, with or without the left gastroepiploic artery, using 300-500 micron embolic spheres. Dr. Weiss also employs a dilute mixture of spheres and a vasodilator to achieve distal arterial penetration. He describes the role of BAE in conjunction with existing surgical and pharmaceutical treatments. According to his experience, patients undergoing BAE achieve maximum weight loss 6-9 months after the procedure and can maintain this weight when they follow up in a weight management clinic. Additionally, Dr. Weiss reviews data from BAE studies, including the BEAT Obesity Trial and the recent BEATLES Trial. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 03:21 - Early Research and Development of BAE 07:39 - Potential Role of BAE in Obesity Treatment 16:03 - Procedure Details 25:28 - Post-Procedure Care and Patient Management 28:06 - Insights from the BEAT Obesity Trial 33:38 - BEATLES Trial 37:38 - Combination Therapy for Obesity --- RESOURCES BEAT Obesity Trial: https://pubs.rsna.org/doi/full/10.1148/radiol.2019182354 LC Bead/Bead Block: https://www.bostonscientific.com/en-US/products/embolization/lc-bead.html EmboSpheres: https://www.merit.com/product/embosphere-microspheres/ EMBIO Trial: https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/13/9/e072327 BEATLES Trial: https://www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443(23)01155-7/fulltext

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a silent yet prevalent health issue that affects millions of people worldwide. Often going unnoticed until significant damage has been done, hypertension can lead to severe cardiovascular complications if not properly managed. Mechanistically, the causes of hypertension are complex, involving both genetic and lifestyle factors. The management of hypertension presents multifaceted challenges, encompassing both pharmaceutical treatments and lifestyle modifications. From a prevention and management standpoint, understanding the interplay between genetics and lifestyle is crucial. This raises several important questions… To what extent do genetic factors contribute to hypertension risk compared to lifestyle choices, and how does this interaction influence disease progression? What role does lifestyle play in managing hypertension, and is there evidence supporting the influence of specific dietary patterns and nutrients, particularly sodium and potassium, on blood pressure control? How do exercise and physical activity impact blood pressure, and what types of exercise are most beneficial for individuals with or at risk of hypertension? What are the main categories of antihypertensive medications, and how do these drugs work to lower blood pressure? What are the potential side effects, and how should clinicians decide on the best treatment approach for individual patients? In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Mohammed Alo, a board-certified cardiologist and internal medicine specialist, who will help us understand the intricacies of hypertension and how it can be effectively controlled.

Research: A Deep Dive into Mitochondrial Dysfunction & How Methylene Blue Combats Neurodegeneration & Aging

The Red Light Report

We are going to combine all of our favorite topics  — red light therapy, the mitochondria and methylene blue  — into this brain-centric episode. We know that the brain is the most mitochondrial-dense tissue in the body and, thus, photobiomodulation (namely, near-infrared light) can have a very positive effect. We also know that most of the methylene blue ingested eventually accumulates in the brain, which is why it has countless brain-boosting benefits. However, when it comes to mitochondrial function it's a double-edged sword.   The health of your mitochondria can (of course) work for you or against you. And when the function of your mitochondria declines, it will likely show up in those tissues that are mitochondrial-dense (i.e., tissues that require the most amount of energy to function). Our nervous system is extremely energy-intensive and the brain is the king/queen of the nervous system. Thus, when mitochondrial dysfunction strikes, it hits the nervous system — and particularly the brain — hard. This largely explains why neurodegenerative diseases are an every-increasing presence in our modern-day world. While this may all seem like sobering and dire news, there is a silver lining that can put you back at ease. Again, while mitochondrial dysfunction can work against you, as long as you harness tactics that boost mitochondrial health (and, thus, inherently prevent, mitigate and sometimes even reverse mitochondrial dysfunction), then you are well on your way to staving off neurodegenerative disease. In today's episode, methylene blue takes center stage as we dig into the research to see how this spectacular salt can buoy your mitochondrial health and play a pivotal role in numerous neurodegenerative diseases.
