In today's episode, supported by Citius Pharmaceuticals, we had the pleasure of speaking with Francine Foss, MD, to discuss the FDA approval of denileukin diftitox-cxdl (Lymphir) for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) who have received 1 or more prior systemic therapies. Dr Foss is a professor of medicine (hematology) and dermatology and the director of the Multidisciplinary T Cell Lymphoma Program at the Yale School of Medicine, as well as the scientific leader of Lymphoma CRT at Yale Cancer Center in New Haven, Connecticut. On August 8, 2024, the FDA approved denileukin diftitox for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CTCL who have received at least 1 prior systemic therapy. This regulatory decision was supported by findings from the phase 3 Study 302 (NCT01871727), in which patients who received the agent (n = 69) achieved an objective response rate of 36.2% (95% CI, 25.0%-48.7%) per independent review committee assessment, including a complete response rate of 8.7%. In our exclusive interview, Dr Foss discussed the significance of this approval, key efficacy and safety data from Study 302, and her excitement about reintroducing an agent to the CTCL treatment paradigm that can induce particularly robust responses.
Yuliya Linhares, MD is a medical oncologist specializing in the comprehensive treatment of lymphoma and serves as chief of Lymphoma Services at Miami Cancer Institute. In this video, Dr. Linhares provides an overview of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and discusses some strategies for shortening the diagnostic journey of this rare cancer.The diagnosis of CTCL is often challenging; as a result, delays in diagnosis (and subsequent work-up and treatment) can be significant. Part of the reason is the variability in how individual patients present with CTCL and its subtypes. Because mycosis fungoides progresses slowly, some patients may not experience progression beyond their initial symptoms, even beyond 10 years. Patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome also have overlap in manifestations; in fact, Sézary syndrome was once classified as a malignant, leukemic variant of mycosis fungoides but is now recognized as a distinct CTCL subtype.Patients with mycosis fungoides may progress through three phases of skin symptoms. The first may feature little more than transient red, scaly areas of skin on the buttocks and torso. The plaques may be hyper- or hypopigmented. As such, these symptoms can be easily misidentified as common skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. The variability of signs and symptoms also adds to the challenge of making a timely, clear-cut diagnosis.In the second phase, patients with progressing disease may develop palpable, scaly, reddish-brown plaques that appear on any portion of the body. Over time, the affected areas of skin may grow, merging with other affected regions. Patients' skin presentation during this stage can vary considerably: Some patients may experience severe pruritus or pain in these scaly bumps, which can result in sleep disturbances and other challenges to quality of life. Other patients may remain asymptomatic other than the skin's appearance.Disease presentation is a bit more consistent in patients who have progressed to the third phase of skin symptoms. Some patients may develop mushroom-shaped skin tumors that can cause skin ulceration and infection. Even for patients with mycosis fungoides reaching this phase of skin progression, malignant spread is uncommon (only 10% will experience metastases to major organs).While patients with Stage III mycosis fungoides experience widespread erythema (over 80% of body surface area), erythroderma is a consistent feature of Sézary syndrome. This rash will often be associated with severe pruritus and peeling.In addition to erythroderma and B2 blood involvement, patients with Sézary syndrome will typically have several other characteristic signs: generalized lymphadenopathy, opportunistic infections, and alopecia. The liver and possibly the spleen will be enlarged, and patients often have very thick, coarse skin on the soles of the feet and palms of the hands (i.e., palmoplantar keratoderma).Diagnosis is usually made with a patient history, complete physical exam, blood tests, biopsy of skin lesions, computed tomography imaging, and sometimes lymph node biopsy and/or bone marrow biopsy. These methods can also be useful in determining the stage of disease, especially whether the lymph nodes have been involved and whether the cancerous cells have spread to blood and other organs. In addition to eczema and psoriasis, the differential diagnosis may include nonspecific dermatitis, lichen, lupus, pseudolymphoma, parapsoriasis, and toxidermia.To learn more about CTCL, visit our Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Learning Center page. https://checkrare.com/cutaneous-t-cell-lymphoma-2/

Soligenix CEO Chrisopher Schaber joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce an interim update on the open-label, investigator-initiated study evaluating extended HyBryte™ treatment for up to 12 months in patients with early-stage cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. To date, six patients have been enrolled and treated with HyBryte™ over a time period ranging up to 44 weeks. Patients have responded positively to HyBryte™ therapy with 75% (3 of the 4 subjects who have completed at least 12 weeks of therapy) already achieving "Treatment Success," as predefined in the study's protocol as ≥50% improvement in their cumulative mCAILS score compared to Baseline. Schaber also told Proactive that of the three Treatment Successes, two were achieved within the first 12 weeks of treatment and the third within 18 weeks. Of the remaining three patients, two have only recently started HyBryte™ therapy and have not yet reached their first efficacy evaluation visit, and the other had a substantial improvement documented at the Week 18 visit but has not yet achieved the success threshold. Patients have the potential to be treated for up to 12 months with twice-a-week dosing (visible light activation following ointment application by 24 ± 6 hours). The study also allows for potential transition to a "real-world" setting with home-use. Another vertical from the company is for public health solutions, which include heat-stable vaccines for emerging infectious diseases and biodefense. The latter segment has received over $60 million in non-dilutive funding from the US government.Soligenix's vaccines are notable for their heat stability, allowing them to be stored outside refrigerators for over two years at temperatures exceeding 100°F. This makes them particularly valuable in regions like Sudan, where cold chain distribution is challenging. #proactiveinvestors #soligenixinc #nasdaq #sngx #Biopharmaceutical, #RareDiseases, #Oncology, #Inflammation, #PublicHealth, #HeatStableVaccines, #Ebola, #Marburg, #Biodefense, #NonDilutiveFunding, #HyBryte, #CTCL, #Psoriasis, #ClinicalTrials, #USGovernmentFunding, #TopicalTherapy, #VisibleLightTherapy, #Biotech, #MedicalResearch#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Welcome to a new episode of the Evidence-Based Hair Podcast, where we discuss some questions surrounding the relationship between dupilumab and lymphoma. This episode dives deep into a study by Hasan and colleagues that explores the fascinating and somewhat controversial relationship between Dupilumab, a drug often used to treat atopic dermatitis patients with alopecia areata, and an increased risk of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL). Despite its potential benefits, does Dupilumab truly cause CTCL, or does it simply unmask the disease in patients who were previously misdiagnosed? Using information from a vast database, authors examined whether patients using dupilumab showed an increased incidence of CTCL compared to those who did not. Findings suggest that users of the drug have a four-fold increased risk of CTCL. While uncertainties remain on whether Dupilumab triggers lymphomas, causes benign lymphoid reactions, or accelerates existing CTCL, this episode underscores the drug's potential risks and the importance of careful diagnostics before prescribing it. As we continue to gather data and debate the varying viewpoints, we invite you to join us in disentangling the complex relationship between Dupilumab and CTCL. Stay tuned for our next episode, where we explore drug-induced alopecia areata and the potential triggering effects of new monoclonal antibodies. donovanmedical Edited• Season 7 of the Evidence Based Hair Podcast has started.

* Unveiling the Enigma: US DoD's Mysterious COVID-19 Research Contract in Ukraine – A Timeline That Defies the Pandemic Narrative!". * Our government lied to you about Covid-19!!!! They knew prior to any information being released to the public. This will explain the war in Ukraine once and for all. * In early January 2020, reports surfaced regarding a novel coronavirus, initially presenting as a pneumonia-like illness in Wuhan, China. However, the official designation of Covid-19 by the WHO did not occur until February 11, 2020. Curiously, US DOD, data indicates a contract awarded on November 12, 2019, to Labyrinth Global Health INC. for 'COVID-19 Research.' This timing predates both the alleged emergence of the novel coronavirus and the official designation of Covid-19 by one and three months, respectively. * d official naming of Covid-19. Adding to the intrigue, the location specified for the Covid-19 research contract is Ukraine, a country entangled in geopolitical tensions where the US Military Industrial Complex is reportedly engaged in a proxy war against Russia. * CIA and foreign intelligence agencies illegally targeted 26 Trump associates before 2016 Russia collusion claims. Former CIA Director John Brennan identified and presented the targets to the US's intelligence-sharing partners in the so-called “Five Eyes” agencies – the intelligence-gathering organizations in the US, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand – according to a report published Monday on Michael Shellenberger's Public Substack. * Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith was sentenced to probation in 2021 after admitting that he falsified an e-mail to renew a wiretap against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. * Last March, Special Counsel John Durham concluded that the FBI investigation of Trump's alleged collusion with Russia was “seriously flawed” and had no basis in evidence, after a four-year review of the probe. * We are releasing information on a secret 2020 Election Day phone call organized by The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). * FOIA Documents Reveal Secret 2020 Election Day Meeting With CISA, Dominion, ES&S, ERIC, FBI, Leftist Organizations, State Officials, and Others. * We have evidence that a private meeting was organized by CISA officials on November 3, 2020, at 3:30 PM Eastern Time with select members of a secret “Election Security Initiative.” * The report revealed collusion between the US government (the FBI, DOJ, EAC, and CISA), with progressive groups and individuals fueled by progressive money related to US elections (like the Elections Group, CTCL, and Brennan Center), along with individuals from US corporations like Microsoft.
Today we have Heather Murphy, the Development Director of Couple to Couple League. She shares with us a new initiative that CTCL has for women during Lent. We were blown away, by what she shared. This program would be fantastic for all teens and young adult women. It could also be helpful for any woman who is struggling month to month with her cycle. Couple to Couple League, the premier provider of Natural Family Planning resources just launched Revelation90, a 90 day course where women take a deep dive into their wellness habits to reveal their healthiest, happiest selves. Drawing on the expertise of program partners SoulCore and Temple+Table, Revelation90 provides a holistic answer to the persistent health problems that women face today. The inaugural Revelation90 challenge will kick off on Ash Wednesday, February 14, and end 90 days later on the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, May 13. Katie Zulanas, Executive Director of Couple to Couple League, says Revelation90 is the answer to a problem that the Couple to Couple League has observed for years. “Working with hundreds of thousands of women in helping them learn about and understand their fertility, we have unfortunately seen a disturbing trend of cycles becoming more irregular,” Zulanas said. “A woman's cycle is an extremely accurate indicator of overall health. Revelation90 will not only give you great insight into your health, it will give you the tools needed to design a happier, healthier, smarter lifestyle.” To register or get more info about Revelation 90 visit www.revelation90.org Our listeners (and friends and family) can use "beloved90" to get 50% off the Revelation90 program!

He also discusses when to perform a biopsy and management approaches when the biopsy does not provide a clear answer. Dr. Zirwas then names several topical products with low allergenicity, including everything from cleansers and moisturizers to detergents and fabric softeners, that are beneficial to patients with sensitive skin. Dr. Del Rosso asks about disease-directed therapy and systemic treatment options, prompting Dr. Zirwas to dive into his medications of choice for each phenotype and patient population. This episode is full of pearls for a variety of eczematous and inflammatory dermatoses, so tune in to learn more!
Dr. Myron Czuczman is the Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of Citius Pharmaceuticals, which is developing an advanced treatment for cutaneous T cell lymphoma, CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The original version of their drug ONTAK has been reformulated, and I/ONTAK is now in clinical trials to confirm efficacy in controlling severe itching and improving the quality of life for patients. Myron explains, "This is a protein, a fusion protein, of interleukin-2, the whole molecule that has been fused with diphtheria toxin. With respect to any of the cells like the cells we're talking about, CTCL, it actually binds to the IL-2 receptor, internalizes, and in that manner, kills the tumor cells." "The agent ONTAK was taken off the market, and this new version, I/ONTAK or E7777, is a reformulation. It's more purified and it's about one and a half to two times more bioactive than the original ONTAK. From the clinical trials which led to our submission of the BLA recently, we've looked at the safety and efficacy, and it's consistent with the original formulation. There are no new safety issues, and it has good activity in patients, even heavily pretreated patients." "The issue here is, unfortunately, this disease, the relapsed/refractory CTCL, is incurable. The only time one has a chance to cure it is if you get it early, if you have young patients that have what we call an HLA compatible donor. In a very small number of patients, an allogeneic stem cell transplant could be curative. But the vast majority of these patients, who are elderly, are not candidates for allogeneic transplant. So, unfortunately, these are incurable individuals with bad diseases." @CitiusPharma #Cancer #Lymphoma #RareDisease #Immunotherapy $CTXR citiuspharma.com Listen to the podcast here
Dr. Myron Czuczman is the Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of Citius Pharmaceuticals, which is developing an advanced treatment for cutaneous T cell lymphoma, CTCL, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The original version of their drug ONTAK has been reformulated, and I/ONTAK is now in clinical trials to confirm efficacy in controlling severe itching and improving the quality of life for patients. Myron explains, "This is a protein, a fusion protein, of interleukin-2, the whole molecule that has been fused with diphtheria toxin. With respect to any of the cells like the cells we're talking about, CTCL, it actually binds to the IL-2 receptor, internalizes, and in that manner, kills the tumor cells." "The agent ONTAK was taken off the market, and this new version, I/ONTAK or E7777, is a reformulation. It's more purified and it's about one and a half to two times more bioactive than the original ONTAK. From the clinical trials which led to our submission of the BLA recently, we've looked at the safety and efficacy, and it's consistent with the original formulation. There are no new safety issues, and it has good activity in patients, even heavily pretreated patients." "The issue here is, unfortunately, this disease, the relapsed/refractory CTCL, is incurable.

Randy opens the show with his FIRST Twitter Warning. The innocuous Tweet promoted tonight's show by announcing Randy's tracking of CO GOP SoS nominee, Pam Anderson. Does her ongoing work with CTCL promote Republican values and transparent elections? Randy doesn't think so. The Tweet also asked whether YOU would buy and wear a Trump Mugshot T-Shirt if Trump actually gets arrested. Randy's answer? Oh, yeah! Randy dipped in and out of the Waco Trump rally. And scary audio of Biden and John Kerry's China love, and an epic rant over the nonsense known as (man-caused) "Climate Change."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Abstract: Chimeric RNAs have been found in both cancer and healthy human cells. They have regulatory effects on human stem/progenitor cell differentiation, stemness maintenance and central nervous system (CNS) development. However, their physiological functions in the retinal development remain unknown. Based on the human embryonic stem cells (hESC)-derived retinal organoids (ROs) spanning from day 0 to day 120, we present the expression atlas of chimeric RNAs throughout the developing ROs. We confirmed the existence of some common chimeric RNAs and also discovered many novel chimeric RNAs during retinal development. We focused on CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 (CTCL) whose downregulation causes precocious neuronal differentiation and a marked reduction of neural progenitors in human cerebral organoids. Our study found that CTCL also plays a key role in human retinogenesis, CTCL loss-of-function obstructed RO differentiation but prompted the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) differentiation. Together, this work provides a landscape of chimeric RNAs and reveals evidence for their crucial roles in human retina development. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Racial disparities in care and outcomes have been well documented but the problems can be particularly acute in cases of rare, genetic diseases. One example of this is the rare blood cancer cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. African Americans are twice as likely as people of European or Asian descent to develop CTCL, are typically diagnosed with more advanced disease, and have a lower survival rate from the condition. Kyowa Kirin North America, which produces the CTCL treatment Poteligeo, is working to address racial disparities to improve the diagnosis, care, and outcomes of African American patients with CTCL. We spoke to Kyowa Kirin Vice President of Public Affairs Lauren Walrath and Co-Leader of the Immune Cell Regulation and Targeting Program at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson Health Pierluigi Porcu, about CTCL, the disparities in care and outcomes for African Americans with the condition, and what they are doing to address that.
As tuitions rise faster than inflation, more and more students and their families may wonder what value college offers and which colleges offer the most opportunities to help set them up for success. Join Mark and Anna as they speak with Ann Marano, Executive Director for the Colleges That Change Lives organization, to discuss the value of liberal arts education and what truly sets colleges in that organization a part from the hundreds of other colleges and universities in the country, including a student-centered approach to education.

Soligenix CEO Chris Schaber joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has been very busy over the last moths with some major accomplishments including an agreement from the FDA on an initial pediatric study plan for HyBryte for the treatment of CTCL. Schaber also told Proactive the company announced it had signed a worldwide exclusive license to supply its ricin antigen to SERB Pharmaceuticals, for development of a novel therapeutic treatment against ricin toxin poisoning.
Pam Anderson is, fortunately, the Republican nominee for Secretary of State of Colorado. Of the other two candidates, one was unqualified and the other was disqualified. We're going to talk with Pam about a few things including the many failures of incumbent Democrat Jena Griswold and finally putting to bed the question of Pam's association with the Mark Zuckerberg-funded Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) which many Republicans see as having been an intentionally partisan (pro-Democrat) effort. Zuckerberg said he won't make private grants to support election operations anymore but that doesn't mean he won't be involved somehow...and I understand why Republicans don't trust him. Mark Zuckerberg Ends Election Grants - The New York Times (nytimes.com). That said, I think this CTCL thing is a very tiny issue and I wish my GOP/MAGA listeners would move on to what matters: beating Jena Griswold. Pam is an exceptionally experienced candidate, perhaps the most qualified non-incumbent SoS candidate in the nation. And she'll do a tremendous job when she wins. We all need to help her and stop focusing on silly distractions.
In this week's episode we review a novel strategy for overcoming resistance to CAR T cell therapy that involves the dual targeting of myeloma cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts. We'll also explore a recent report demonstrating that loss of CCR4 expression is common after treatment of CTCL with the anti-CCR4 antibody mogamulizumab. Finally, we'll review real-world data demonstrating an association between corticosteroid exposure and risk of vaso-occlusive episodes in patients with sickle cell disease, providing further evidence that steroids should be avoided in this setting.

Season 1: #5 - Maria Furtado: “Know” Before No. There are over 4000 colleges and universities in the US. Let me let that sink in for a moment. There are more colleges than there are shopping malls, Apple stores, amusement parks, and national parks COMBINED. I've researched and/or visited over one hundred colleges, but I could not begin to name more than maybe 300. My question this week is, “How many could you name?” My guess is that most people would name the same 50 -150. So if this is true, why do so many shake their head, “No” to a college they've never heard of? Where did we learn this? Teachers everywhere teach students that when you don't know something, if you don't have the answer, you should ask questions. You can ask the teacher, ask a parent, ask you neighbor, or phone a friend. This week our guest, Maria Furtado, the Executive Director and national spokeswoman for Colleges That Change Lives, shares her journey to college. As the first in her family to attend college, Maria applied two golden rules; 1) Follow The Leader, and 2) Know before No. Maria's story will open your mind and heart to a group of 44 colleges and inspire you to fall in love with the college admission process. She believes you can land at your perfect destination: YOUniversity. Guest Bio Maria Furtado is the Executive Director of the non-profit organization, Colleges That Change Lives. She has worked in higher education for over 20 years, and she worked at two CTCL schools, Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, and Eckerd College in St Petersburg, Florida. Maria speaks all around the country to students, parents and counselors about college rankings and popular misperceptions about college admission, the strength and worth of a liberal arts education, the lifelong value of a college education – the return on investment - and offers tips for students and parents on how to manage the college search. She really enjoys helping students and families as they take on the college search process, and she believes that finding the right college should be about "fit,” not just settling or chasing the name brand. Maria also believes that it's OK, and actually preferable, to enjoy talking about colleges. She also thinks the college search should actually be fun.

Sen. Lisa Baker (R-Luzerne) joins Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill to discuss legislation they are working on together that would ban outside groups from funding Pennsylvania's elections process. In 2020, the nonprofit Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) pumped in more than $20 million into the Commonwealth. Further evidence shows certain counties were targeted by CTCL for funding. The senators believe that this could set a very dangerous precedent and outline why they are seeking to end the practice all together. Senate Bill 982 would restore confidence and integrity in Pennsylvania's election process.
Randy continues his deep dive into the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), the "non-partisan?" group that doled out millions in Zuckerbucks for the 2020 election. We got the receipts thanks to the Caesar Rodney Institute for American Election Research's Chairman Joe Arlinghaus. We discuss SofS candidate Pam Anderson's role at CTCL. Randy believes evidence of a stolen election is right in front of our faces with more every day. Oh, and Ceasar Rodney? Very important to the American founding. Listen and find out why!

Randy is joined by the beautiful and inspirational Michaela McLean-Wilkes. She's the longest-reigning Miss Florida ever (2019 AND 2020!) and her Godly message for young people, especially young women, all women, is powerful. They share their thoughts from 2022 CPAC and look into the future. https://michaelamclean.net/.

HOW ZUCK BOUGHT THE 2020 ELECTIONPrevious Article: https://gorightnews.com/how-zuck-bought-the-2020-election/https://www.spreaker.com/user/peterboykin/how-zuck-bought-the-2020-electionA stunning new analysis of tax disclosures reveals how much Mark Zuckerberg funneled $350 million dollars into key swing states during the 2020 election and how that money disproportionately funded turn-out efforts in Biden-friendly districts. We reported on this last month, but new details show just how lopsided it was.First things first: Zuckerberg funneled his Zuck-bucks through a nonprofit company called the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL). According to InfluenceWatch.org, CTCL is:a left-learning election reform advocacy group that pushes for Democrat voting policies. Its founders were part of the now-defunct "New Organizing Institute" which the Washington Post described as “the Democratic Party's Hogwarts for digital wizardry."Seems like an unbiased arbiter, right...
HOW ZUCK BOUGHT THE 2020 ELECTIONA vote-generating group funded mostly by Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg dumped money in eight swing states in 2020, with 90% of the funding going to boost turnout in Democrat counties in the 2020 election.Here's how the money breaks down: Zuckerberg's 'Center for Tech and Civic Life' spent $144 million to boost voter turnout in the 2020 election. Here's where it went:$130 million went to Democratic counties$14 million to Republican countiesLet me repeat: 90% of Zuck's funding went to boosting DEMOCRAT turnout. This money was spent primarily in Wisconsin, but also went to Georgia, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, Nevada, Texas, and New York.Rep. Claudia Tenney, co-chairwoman of the House Election Integrity Caucus, said: “After reviewing their IRS Form 990, which I requested months ago, we know the group gave overwhelmingly to Democrat-leaning counties to drive up voter turnout there. This provided Democrats with a clear advantage over Republicans, and now we have the evidence to show the extent of this partisan exercise."Tenney continued: “CTCL's one-sided distribution of private dollars directly to election agencies without any accountability completely bypassed state and local governments and undermined the fairness and integrity of our elections. It should not have happened."It shouldn't be forgotten that Trump faced severe censorship from big tech during the 2020 election - from Zuckerberg's Facebook as well as Twitter and YouTube.[Source: Washington Examiner]https://www.spreaker.com/user/9922149/how-zuck-bought-the-2020-election
Senator Kristin Phillips-Hill sits down with Rep. Eric Nelson to discuss legislation that would prohibit third-party entities from contributing to the elections process in Pennsylvania. In the 2020 General Election, the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) provided more than $20 million to Pennsylvania counties. Counties were selectively asked by state officials to apply to the nonprofit for funding. CTCL was the recipient of $350 million in donations by Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg last year.

Lauren explains their approach to patient-centric discovery, "In advocacy, we're really trying to find where the gaps are and how we can best work with partners to make long-term and sustainable improvements for patients. So that can be in the form of starting new research, funding new grants, addressing disparities, working on developing new education programs. Generally, we're looking for meaningful opportunities to help patients and their families on their journey from diagnosis to treatment. We work closely with the advocates, and we bring all of that understanding back to our teams here at Kyowa Kirin so that we really can engage our cross-functional partners in doing more to help the patients we serve." Susan elaborates, "And then there is Jim and Jeffrey who have Sézary syndrome, which is a more serious form of CTCL that affects less than 5% of the patients. What we've done is we've captured their journeys in their own voice, the journey to diagnosis, their experience on treatment, and ultimately what they've learned along the way, what really keeps them motivated to not give up.

What we've done is we've captured their journeys in their own voice, the journey to diagnosis, their experience on treatment, and ultimately what they've learned along the way, what really keeps them motivated to not give up. And people can now hear those stories by going to POTELIGEO.com." #KyowaKirin #KKNA #DrugDevelopment #RareDiseases #Antibodies #immunology #Cancer #CTCL #Neurology #ParkinsonsDisease #NeurodegenerativeDiseases #Nephrology #HematologicalCancers #SezarySyndrome KyowaKirin.com Listen to the podcast here
Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are rare cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL). With a current lack of accessible treatments and insufficient patient support, affected patients are faced with an array of unmet needs, which may have a significant impact on their quality of life. In this podcast discussion, Richard Cowan, an oncologist with The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, UK, and expert on CTCL, provides insights into both MF and SS.
We've covered Mark Zuckerberg's financing of the administration of the 2020 elections through the Center for Tech and Civic Life before, but our guest today adds a provocative analysis to the evidence that the Facebook chief deserves a thank-you card from President Biden. In a piece originally posted at the Federalist and, as we record on Thursday October 14, the cover story of the New York Post, William Doyle of the Caesar Rodney Election Research Institute asserts that “The 2020 election wasn't stolen — it was likely bought by one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful men pouring his money through legal loopholes.” William joins me to explain his thesis. The 2020 Election Wasn't Stolen, It Was Bought By Mark Zuckerberg: https://thefederalist.com/2021/10/12/the-2020-election-wasnt-stolen-it-was-bought-by-mark-zuckerberg/ Subscribe to the podcast on your platform of choice at: https://influencewatch.fireside.fm/ • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenter • Twitter: https://twitter.com/capitalresearch • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/capital.research.center/ • YouTube: https://bit.ly/CRCYouTube
In this week's episode, we'll review a study providing new insights on megakaryocyte diversity and function, including a unique subpopulation that may act as immune cells. Next, we'll review research that intriguingly reveals a putative role for the PD1 gene in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Lastly, we'll conclude with a report demonstrating a lack of cross-reaction between the antibodies that cause vaccine-induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis, and the COVID-19 spike protein.
25 counties received a total of $2.3 million in grants from the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) that ranged from $5,000 to $856,000 with no obligations. The Center for Tech and Civic Life is a non-profit organization that provides civic information for voters as well as tools for election officials. 25 Kansas counties applied for and were awarded $2.3 million dollars in CTCL grants. As of January 31, 2021, counties reported using 92% of their grant money on items such as election equipment, staffing, and real estate expenses. There were no obligations associated with the acceptance of the CTCL grant. The grants were the subject of some political concerns, and under a new state law, counties will not be able to accept these type grants in the future.

Tiana Epps-Johnson and her co-founders had an ambitious and critical goal; to simplify and modernize U.S. elections. To reach this goal, they established The Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), whose data has been accessed over 250 million times by U.S. voters through partnerships with local election committees, Google, and Facebook. On this podcast, you'll hear from Tiana, the co-founder and Executive Director of CTCL, about the organizations' humble beginnings, how its work became crucial to fight election misinformation, and how Tiana's courage for this work has been passed down through generations.

In this episode: When people think “political billionaire,” Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is not the one who usually comes to mind. But after the 2020 elections, maybe he should. The Center for Tech and Civic Life, funded principally to the tune of a reported $350 million by Zuckerberg and his wife through entities the couple controls, provided millions of dollars in grants to counties to support their implementation of mail-in voting and other left-of-center election administration procedures. And there is strong circumstantial evidence that those grants may have favored Democratic counties over Republican counties, contributing to Joe Biden’s victories in battleground states. Joining us to discuss his analysis of these “Zuck-bucks” in Pennsylvania is Todd Shepherd, chief investigative reporter for the website Broad and Liberty, which covers Philadelphia city and Pennsylvania state-level news and politics.

The C Report for Tuesday, May 11, 2021. In this episode, we continue our examination of election fraud via the headlines, and the headlines tell us constitutional lawyer, Matthew Deperno fights to expand the Antrim county investigation into a full blown forensic audit. Meanwhile, an injunction is filed in Wyndham, NH to stop the biased, sabotaged audit by Verified Voting (headed by Mark Lindeman whom is opposed to the Arizona audit), and Wisconsin busts wide open with election fraud as the mayors of the Wisconsin Five are discovered to have allowed the Center for Tech and Civic Living to run their elections. The CTCL is a Zuckerberg funded organization, and that’s not to mention under law cities can only run their own elections and state legislation is the final word.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.05.31.126805v1?rss=1 Authors: Wang, Z., Jiang, C., Yao, H., Chen, O., Rahman, S., Gu, Y., Huh, Y., Ji, R.-R. Abstract: Opioids, such as morphine are mainstay treatments for clinical pain conditions. Itch is a common side effect of opioids, particularly as a result of epidural or intrathecal (i.t.) administration. Recent progress has advanced our understanding of itch circuits in the spinal cord. However, the mechanisms underlying opioid-induced itch are not fully understood, although an interaction between mu opioid receptor (MOR) and gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) in spinal GRPR-expressing neurons has been implicated. In this study we investigated the cellular mechanisms of intrathecal (i.t.) opioid-induced itch by conditional deletion of MOR-encoding Oprm1 in distinct populations of interneurons and sensory neurons. We found that i.t. injection of the MOR agonists morphine or DAMGO elicited dose-dependent scratching, but this pruritus was totally abolished in mice with a specific Oprm1 deletion in Vgat+ neurons (Oprm1-Vgat). Loss of MOR in somatostatin+ interneurons and TRPV1+ sensory neurons did not affect morphine-induced itch but impaired morphine-induced antinociception. In situ hybridization revealed Oprm1 expression in 30% of inhibitory and 20% of excitatory interneurons in the spinal dorsal horn. Whole-cell recordings from spinal cord slices showed that DAMGO induced outward currents in 9 out of 19 Vgat+ interneurons examined. Morphine also inhibited action potentials in Vgat+ interneurons and suppressed evoked IPSCs in postsynaptic Vgat- excitatory neurons, suggesting a mechanism of disinhibition by MOR agonists. Notably, morphine-elicited itch was suppressed by i.t. administration of NPY and abolished by spinal ablation of GRPR+ neurons, whereas i.t. GRP-induced itch response remained intact in mice lacking Oprm1-Vgat. Additionally, chronic itch from DNFB-induced allergic contact dermatitis was decreased by Oprm1-Vgat deletion. Finally, naloxone, but not peripherally restricted naloxone methiodide, inhibited chronic itch in the DNFB model and the cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) model, indicating a contribution of central MOR signaling to chronic itch. Our findings demonstrate that i.t. morphine elicits itch via acting on MOR on spinal inhibitory interneurons, leading to disinhibition of the spinal itch circuit. Our data also suggest that chronic itch could be effectively treated with CNS-targeted naloxone. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info

Dr. Robert Gniadecki speaks with JCMS Editor-in-chief, Dr. Kirk Barber, about the article Gniadecki co-authored in the Sept/Oct 2019 edition of the Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery. They discuss two progressive primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas for which there are no curative treatments, Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome. Dr Gniadecki explains why Immunotherapy seems to be a promising avenue to achieve long-term disease control in CTCL, with compelling evidence indicating that Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome are immunogenic lymphomas, which can be recognized by the patient’s immune system. They also discuss how current genomic techniques, such as estimating the mutational load by whole genome sequencing and neoantigen calling, are likely to provide clinically useful information facilitating personalized immunotherapy of CTCL. Dr. Robert Gniadecki is a professor of dermatology at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, where he is the director of the division of Dermatology and leads the Multidisciplinary Cutaneous Lymphoma Clinic.

In this paradigm-shifting interview with Maria Furtado, the Executive Director of Colleges That Change Lives (aka CTCL), we discuss, among other things: What is a liberal arts education and why is it important? Three questions every student should ask when it comes to picking a college Three ways to reduce anxiety during the college application process: the Car Idea, how to avoid “college creep,” and how the Ice Cream Prize can make a tour better One great way to increase (not decrease) stress during the college selection process How to make the most of a college fair experience Perhaps the single most important thing for parents to consider when it comes to the college application process
Dr. Dave Wada and Mark Hyde, MMS, PA-C, stopped by the Dermcast studios during the SDPA’s 14th Annual Fall Dermatology Conference 2016, held in Las Vegas, Nevada, to discuss Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma (CTCL).
Join us as we speak with Ian Heydecke. Ian is living purposefully and making his crazy dream a reality. Ian is a cancer warrior/fighter who is focusing on healing and wellness. Ian has been surviving with CTCL or Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma for the past 4 years. He's focused on raising awareness through his experiences and love of cooking. Ian's brands include: Body By Ian, which is his personal training service. Body By Ian offers training, tips, cooking, nutrition and much more. Ian's other brand, Bros That Cook is where he throws down in the kitchen. Teaching men and women who want to cook but maybe don't know how to, Ian incorporates the two brands together to educate, inform, and live purposefully.
Cutaneous T cell lymphomas are types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that arise when infection-fighting white blood cells in the lymphatic system – called lymphocytes – become malignant and affect the skin.Photo therapy to topical creams, the first defense is to relieve the itching.Is it eczema?

Medizinische Fakultät - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 11/19
Die Rekrutierung von Zellen ist ein komplexer, in mehreren Schritten ablaufender Mechanismus, der eine zentrale Bedeutung für zahlreiche biologische Prozesse, wie z.B. Entzündung, Transplantatabstoßung, Tumormetastasierung und Stammzell¬migration hat. Die Migration von Zellen aus dem Blutstrom oder einem Reservoir in ein Zielgewebe bzw. Zielorgan und umgekehrt wird durch zahlreiche spezifische und unspezifische Reize ausgelöst und orchestriert. Dies erfolgt zu einem großen Teil durch von Chemokinen regulierte Mechanismen. Chemokine sind chemotaktische Zytokine, welche an spezifische auf der Zelloberfläche exprimierte Chemokinrezeptoren (CCR) binden. Zellen mit entsprechenden Chemokinrezeptoren wandern entlang eines Chemokingradienten zum jeweiligen Ziel, z.B. einem Entzündungsherd oder einem Zielorgan. Erstes Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Analyse der Chemokinrezeptorexpression im kutanen T-Zell Lymphom (CTCL), einem Non-Hogkin-Lymphom mit primärer kutaner Manifestation. Der Nachweis von Chemokinrezeptoren erfolgte in vitro mit der Polymerasekettenreaktion (PCR), der Durchflusszytometrie und mit Migrations-versuchen. Der Chemokinrezeptornachweis auf Hautschnitten von CTCL-Patienten erfolgte mit der Immunhistochemie. Erstmals konnte der hautassoziierte Chemokinrezeptor CCR10 im Rahmen des CTCL nachgewiesen werden. Außerdem gelang der Nachweis der Chemokinrezeptoren CCR4, CCR7 und CXCR3 in Hautschnitten und Lymphknotenbiopsien. CXCR3 wurde erstmals im Sezary Syndrom, einer fortgeschrittenen und aggressiven CTCL-Unterform, beschrieben. In der Immunhistochemie wurde die stärkste CCR10-Expression in Sezary Syndrom-Hautschnitten festgestellt. In Biopsien von befallenen Lymphknoten zeigte sich ein auffälliges CCR10-Verteilungsmuster: CCR10-positive Zellen wurden im Lymphsinus nachgewiesen, drangen aber nur vereinzelt in den Lymphknoten ein. In peripheren, nicht-kutanen Lymphomen wurde CCR10 nicht nachgewiesen und ist somit vermutlich exklusiv auf dem primär kutanen CTCL exprimiert. Es ist davon auszugehen, dass CCR10 den Epidermotropismus vor allem in aggressiveren Stadien reguliert. Die Bedeutung von CCR10 für die lymphatische Metastasierung des CTCL ist noch nicht geklärt. CCR10 könnte in der Zukunft als Faktor für die klinische Einstufung des CTCL oder als Ziel für eine gezielte Tumortherapie dienen. Die gezielte Tumortherapie ist u.a. mit Chemokinantagonisten möglich. Sie erlauben die gezielte Beeinflussung der chemokingesteuerten Rekrutierung von Leukozyten, Stammzellen oder Tumorzellen. Deshalb wurde ein membranbindender Antagonist des Chemokins CCL5, als potentielles Agens für die lokale Therapie von Tumoren oder von Transplantatabstoßungen, generiert. Das Chemokin CCL5 und seine Rezeptoren spielen in der akuten Transplantatabstoßung und in der Tumorprogression, z.B. im Mammakarzinom, eine zentrale Rolle. Der CCL5-Antagonist Met-RANTES inhibiert in Transplantatabstoßungsmodellen die Rekrutierung von Leukozyten. Der akute Entzündungsprozess und der daraus resultierende chronische Gefäßschäden werden so vermindert. Auch in einem Tumormodell ist ein Effekt auf die lokale Tumorprogression wahrscheinlich. Der in dieser Arbeit hergestellte CCL5-Antagonist Met-RANTES(Dimer)-GPI soll eine lokale Therapie ohne systemische Nebenwirkungen ermöglichen. Durch die erstmals beschriebene Bindung eines Chemokins oder Chemokinderivats an einen Glykosylinositolphosphatidyl (GPI)-Anker soll der Antagonist effektiv in die Zellmembranen von Endothelzellen inkorporiert werden, länger auf dem Endothel verbleiben und die benötigte Proteinmenge vermindern. Zunächst wurde durch die Erweiterung des signalgebenden N-Terminus von CCL5 der CCL5-Antagonist Met-RANTES generiert. Ein Aminosäureaustausch erzeugte ein dimerisierendes Molekül, welches einfacher als die zur Polymerisierung neigende Wildform zu isolieren war. Das Protein wurde mit der PCR mit einem GPI-Anker fusioniert und in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO)-Zellen subkloniert. Met-RANTES(Dimer)-GPI wurde erfolgreich aus den CHO-Zellen isoliert und mit der Säulenchromatographie gereinigt. In in vitro-Versuchen wurde Met-RANTES(Dimer)-GPI effektiv in die Oberfläche von humanen Endothelzellen reinkorporiert und hemmte die transendotheliale Migration von Monozyten, welche bei der Transplantat¬abstoßung und bei der Tumorprogression eine wichtige Rolle spielen. Mit Met-RANTES(Dimer)-GPI präperfundierte Transplantate zeigen möglicherweise einen geringeren vaskulären Schaden bei der akuten Transplantatabstoßungsreaktion. Im Tumormodell soll eine Hemmung der Tumorinfiltration durch Monozyten, welche eine beschleunigte Tumorprogression verursachen, erreicht werden. Im Vergleich zu nicht GPI-gebundenen CCL5-Antagonisten würde eine lokale fokussierte Therapie ermöglicht und eine eventuell geringere zu applizierende Proteinmenge bei längerer Verweildauer erzielt. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit erlauben zunächst einen genaueren Einblick in die Pathogenese des CTCL. Der Chemokinrezeptor CCR7 wird vor allem von fortgeschrittenen Formen mit lymphatischer Infiltration exprimiert. CCR10 wird erstmals im Zusammenhang mit dem CTCL beschrieben und vor allem von fortgeschrittenen Unterformen exprimiert. Desweiteren wurde ein membranbindender Chemokinantagonist hergestellt. Erstmals wird die Kombination eines Chemokins oder Chemokinderivats mit einem GPI-Anker beschrieben. Der Antagonist erlaubt eine hohe lokale Applikation ohne systemische Zirkulation des Agens. Mögliche Einsatzgebiete sind die gezielte Tumortherapie oder die Behandlung der Transplantatabstoßung.
