This webinar will help to discuss the state of minority health, post pandemic, during National Minority Health Month. Where do we find ourselves now in terms of health equity? Is community engagement with trusted voices being continued by health policy makers & providers? Do we have a sustainability model for promoting engagement & health equity? Moderator Laura Lee Hall, Ph.D. President, Center for Sustainable Health Care Quality and Equity National Minority Quality Forum Panelists Daniel B. Fagbuyi, MD Assistant Professor of Pediatrics and Emergency Medicine George Washington Univ. School of Medicine Dr. Daniel B. Fagbuyi, known as “Dr. Dan” by his patients, is a distinguished ER Physician, Biodefense Expert, Chief Medical Officer, War Veteran, Asst. Professor and Media Expert, providing strategic leadership in public health literacy, biodefense, disaster preparedness, emergency management, and business continuity of operations both nationally and internationally. He served as Medical Director for Disaster Preparedness at Children's National Health System. Dr. Fagbuyi is board certified and one of the first and youngest African Americans appointed by the US Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius (Obama Administration) to the National Biodefense Science Board to provide expert advice and guidance on complex issues of preventing, preparing for, and responding to adverse health effects of public health emergencies. Under the leadership of Gen. David Petraeus, Dr. Fagbuyi (MAJOR) was a unique asset, possessing skills that enabled him to be involved in both combat and civil military operations. During civil operations, he was appointed “liaison” between the US Army and the Iraqi Ministry of Health, providing health and infrastructure assessments to the US government culminating in the rebuilding of damaged medical treatment facilities and the provision of medical treatments, food, water, and basic human essentials, ultimately winning the “hearts and minds.” As medical expert, Dr. Fagbuyi seeks to empower the public by providing timely, tangible, and easy to digest public health information and education. He has had appearances in both lay and professional media including: The Washington Post, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX 5, WUSA 9, ABC WJLA 7, Associated Press, Science, Today Show and more. Stephen B. Thomas, PhD Professor, Health Policy and Management Director, Center for Health Equity One of the nation's leading scholars in the effort to eliminate racial and ethnic health disparities, Dr. Stephen B. Thomas has applied his expertise to address a variety of conditions from which minorities generally face far poorer outcomes, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and HIV/AIDS. Dr. Thomas has received numerous awards for his professional accomplishments, and over the years, his work has become recognized as one of the scholarly contributions leading to the 1997 Presidential Apology to Survivors of the Syphilis Study Done at Tuskegee. His current research focuses on the translation of evidence-based science on chronic disease into community-based interventions designed to eliminate racial and ethnic disparities in health and health care. In 2014, Democratic Gov. O'Malley appointed Dr. Thomas to the Maryland Health Care Commission, an independent regulatory agency whose mission is to plan for health system needs, promote informed decision-making, increase accountability, and improve access to quality medical and dental care. In 2019, Republican Gov. Larry Hogan appointed him to a new full term on the Commission. Originally Published on April 28, 2023

Working under the hypothesis that a subset of de novo oligometastatic breast cancer patients who are treated with a combination of systemic therapy, surgery, and radiation or ablation of metastatic sites will have long-term distant metastasis free and overall survival, this multi-cohort, prospective, nationwide registry study will enroll newly diagnosed oligometastatic (operationally defined by local tumor boards as disease where all metastatic lesions can be ablated) HER2+ breast cancer patients. Using an online portal, physicians can download a consent form, register patients, receive a multimodality treatment pathway that can potentially cure a subset of these patient, and enter information regarding what treatment the patient received, follow up, and outcomes information. The portal also gives patients access to input quality of life and patient reported outcome measures. Guest: Mariya Rozenblit, MD Assistant Professor of Medicine Yale School of Medicine  “Registry trials are helpful because they represent real-world data…So, for example, our trial is an online registry trial. All the information is collected online, so no one has to travel. And there's no criteria for participation except that you must have this specific type of breast cancer...We're hoping that by offering this clinical trial online, we can have a much more diverse patient population participating. We are hoping to get community practices from all over the country because there are less barriers to participation.”   Resources: The CHLOE Study ACCC Community Oncology Research Institute (ACORI) ASCO-ACCC Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Research Site Self-Assessment Just ASK™ Training Program Just ASK™ Training Facilitation Guide Clinical Terms Glossary [PODCAST] Ep 84: Increasing Clinical Trial Access for Blood Cancers [VIDEO] ACORI Call to Action Summit: Activating Equity in Community Oncology Research [EXECUTIVE SUMMARY] ACORI Call to Action Summit: Activating Equity in Community Oncology Research Virtual Navigation to Clinical Trials  

The average survival rate for patients with myelofibrosis is six years. But this varies based on potential treatments. There are no drugs that can modify the outcome for myelofibrosis, and the only treatment that leads to cure is an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). However, because of the high rates of morbidity and mortality, this treatment must be carefully considered based on the patient. CANCER BUZZ spoke to Gabriela S. Hobbs. MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and Clinical Director of Leukemia, Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, MA. Listen as Dr. Hobbs discusses symptom scoring, risk stratification, and effective practices in building a strong myelofibrosis program. “…If a patient is higher risk, they should be referred to transplant; also patients who are high risk are more likely to have low blood counts, low platelets, and low red blood cells that may also influence how these patients are treated.” – Gabriela S. Hobbs. MD  This project is supported by AbbVie and GSK.   Gabriela S. Hobbs.

Pooja Khandelwal, MD, Assistant Professor, UC Department of Pediatrics and Member, Division of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Immune Deficiency, discusses bone marrow, gut health, and their work at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.   Podcast Points: What conditions require a bone marrow transplant? What is bone marrow? How does the intestinal microbiome develop? As a principal investigator at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, Dr. Khandelwal has a keen interest in acute graft versus host disease biology, the treatment of steroid refractory acute graft versus host disease, and management of refractory autoimmune cytopenias in the post-transplant setting. Her work is often focused on pediatric bone marrow transplantation and blood diseases. Dr. Khandelwal discusses acute graft versus host disease that can occur after a transplant. She provides some data on the number of bone marrow transplants, stating that approximately 10,000 patients annually go through the procedure in the United States alone. She explains how it can be a curative modality for diseases that are either hard to treat or that have returned after remission. Dr. Khandelwal provides some detailed information on bone marrow, explaining how it is a fascinating organ. As she states, bone marrow is a living organ in our bones that produces all the cells that make up our blood—white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. From carrying oxygen to the core of our immune system, to other crucial functions, our bone marrow is responsible for originating many important elements that are critical to our body's health.  Dr. Khandelwal discusses matching immune systems, and the factors. She discusses proteins and the matches between recipients and donors. Further, Dr. Khandelwal explains the actual process of how bone marrow transplants work from a technical perspective. She discusses how sophisticated the bone marrow is, and how it knows where it needs to go after transplanting it. The research doctor explains how chemotherapy is often used to eradicate a recipient's current bone marrow to make room for the new, healthy bone marrow.  Continuing, Dr. Khandelwal explains the changes within intestinal microbiome over time, in transplantation. She discusses where disruption happens, and how they can restore the beneficial bacteria to patients' bodies. Additionally, she provides information on how the intestinal microbiome is formed, and how human milk allows for the initial growth of an intestinal microbiome that can allow healthy systems to flourish.  Wrapping up, Dr. Khandelwal discusses the future of transplants, and some of her perspectives on personalized medicine.

Christopher Chapman, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Director of Bariatric and Metabolic Endoscopy, Department of Medicine at the University of Chicago, provides an overview of his research, specifically detailing the area of gastroenterology and his work with patients. Podcast Points: What are the medical procedures designed to help lose weight? Can I lose weight medically, but without surgery? What does an endoscopic procedure entail? Dr. Chapman has extensive training and experience in Interventional Endoscopy and Gastroenterology. He is a noted gastroenterologist and member of the Center for Endoscopic Research and Therapeutics (CERT), where he regularly treats patients who suffer from various gastrointestinal disorders, through the use of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques. The research doctor discusses his background at Johns Hopkins University, and now at the University of Chicago, and also his current work, which he describes as about 80% clinical and 20% research. As he explains, a good deal of his work deals with endoscopic procedures designed to help people lose weight, so they can improve their health, and reduce or eliminate their obesity-related conditions. He explains how these procedures differ from bariatric surgery. As he states, many of these procedures are done through the ‘natural orifice' meaning they go in through the mouth while the patient is asleep. He provides an overview of the intragastric balloon procedure, which essentially inserts a balloon-type device inside your stomach that allows you to feel fuller faster; endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), which reduces the size of the stomach; and then aspiration therapy, which is a bariatric approach that can help to siphon ingested food out of the stomach through an implanted tube and port it to the outside of the body to then be discarded. Dr. Chapman discusses the many ways they, as researchers and doctors, seek to innovate in the space, applying new procedures and techniques to aid their patients with a wide assortment of medical maladies. He talks about clinical trials for their balloon devices, devices that can help people lose more weight and/or make the balloon more tolerable to patients who have difficulty. He talks about other options in clinical trials, that focus on diabetes, and also some that are endoscopy-free. Many new techniques are on the horizon that will be minimally invasive, yet still, provide immense benefits to patients.  Continuing, Dr. Chapman talks about the work they are doing to try to get insurance companies to cover certain procedures, which will help those who may be underinsured or facing financial struggles, to get procedures they need for their health.
