Content warning: this episode discusses themes of cancer, mortality and fertility. Welcome to another episode of That's Juicy and this week we have a very special guest, friend and colleague of mine, Chloe Adams from PocketSmith. Chloe joins us to share her experience of being diagnosed with ovarian cancer in her thirties, despite having said two weeks prior that she was the healthiest she's ever been. We discuss how such a life altering diagnosis affects your money mindset, your outlook on the future, and big life decisions, and explore how being financially prudent when you're healthy can pay off big time if you find yourself dealing with a serious illness. I'm pleased to give one spoiler alert that this episode has a happy ending and Chloe is now cancer free.

As an oncology nurse practitioner at NCI's Clinical Center and wife of FDA's Richard Pazdur, Mary Pazdur knew cancer drug development inside and out. When she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, she and Rick got to know “the other side of the stethoscope.” In his 25 year career at FDA, Rick has shaped the FDA approach to drug approval, setting forth a set of criteria accepted by drug companies, academics and NCI. And for 16 years, Mary was by his side, with compassion, intuition, and practicality. She was described by one colleague as having a “combination of efficiency and great humanity, [...] compassion and strength.” This interview with Rick and Mary Pazdur was recorded in 2015, a few months before she died, and was conducted by Ellen Stovall, three-time cancer survivor and pioneering patient advocate, on behalf of the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship. Stovall also died a few months later—in January 2016—from cardiac complications due to her cancer treatments.This episode is accompanied by a robust archive about Rick and Mary Pazdur, as well as further reading about Ellen Stovall. Read more at https://cancerhistoryproject.com/article/rick-and-mary-pazdur/

Jennifer Vertentes was a police officer in Providence Rhode Island when she decided to go to Hasbro Children's Hospital on Thanksgiving Day of 2018 to meet kids who had to spend their Thanksgiving being treated for different reasons, including being treated for Pediatric Cancer. While she was there she met 3 year old Emerson Lucier who was going through her 3rd battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia . This meeting inspired Jennifer to start her HERO PACKAGE FOUNDATION to help put a smile on the faces of these kids who were battling these difficult diseases. Jennifer, who in 2023 had to retire from the Police Department after suffering an injury while trying to save a person who was drowning, was also diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer that year. Fortunately for the Pediatric Cancer community, she continues to help these kids as she deals with her disease, that fortunately was diagnosed at a very early stage.

BUFFALO, NY - June 3, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 19, 2025, titled “PRDX1 protects ATM from arsenite-induced proteotoxicity and maintains its stability during DNA damage signaling." In this study, led by first author Reem Ali and corresponding author Dindial Ramotar from Hamad Bin Khalifa University in Qatar, researchers discovered that a protein called PRDX1 helps maintain the stability of ATM, a key protein involved in repairing damaged DNA, especially when cells are under stress from arsenite exposure. The study found that without PRDX1, cells lose their ability to repair DNA and become more sensitive to chemotherapy. This finding suggests that targeting PRDX1 could improve the success of some cancer treatments. PRDX1 is already known for its role in protecting cells from oxidative damage, but this study shows it also plays a role in the DNA repair process. ATM is an essential protein that detects breaks in DNA and starts the repair process. When PRDX1 is missing, ATM is rapidly lost, especially when cells are exposed to arsenite, a toxic substance found in the environment. Without ATM, the DNA repair system fails, leaving cells more vulnerable to damage. By using both human cell lines and clinical samples from ovarian cancer patients, the team showed that high levels of PRDX1, along with ATM and MRE11 (another DNA repair protein), were linked to tumors' aggressive features and lower patient survival rates. This pattern suggests that tumors with high PRDX1 may resist chemotherapy by increasing their DNA repair capacity. On the other hand, removing PRDX1 weakened the repair system and made cancer cells more responsive to DNA-damaging platinum drugs. The study also showed that combining low doses of arsenite with drugs that either block ATM or damage DNA caused a much higher rate of cancer cell death in cells that lacked PRDX1. These results suggest a new treatment approach: lowering PRDX1 levels to make cancer cells more sensitive to DNA-damaging platinum therapies already in use. This highlights PRDX1 not only as a protector of cell function but also as a potential weak point in cancer cells. “As such, we propose that small molecule inhibitors of PRDX1, or single nucleotide polymorphisms that compromise PRDX1 function, in combination with low doses of arsenite can be exploited to treat chemo-resistant tumours.” These findings open the door for the use of PRDX1 as a biomarker to predict treatment response and as a promising target for new combination therapies. For patients with ovarian cancer and potentially other tumors, adjusting PRDX1 levels may help overcome drug resistance and improve outcomes.

In this deeply personal episode, Mark Chesnut returns to Grief Out Loud to share his experience of losing his sister Glynn to ovarian cancer. Glynn chose medical aid in dying after nearly four years of treatment, giving Mark and his family the unusual experience of knowing when death would occur. This conversation explores the complexity of "scheduled death," the challenges of finding appropriate language to discuss medical aid in dying, and how knowing the date changed their family's grieving process. Mark Chesnut is a journalist, editor, public speaker, and the author of: Prepare for Departure.  Mark previously appeared on Grief Out Loud in October 2022, discussing caring for his mother at the end of her life. Mark lives in New York City with his husband Angel and recently wrote an article about his sister's experience with medical aid in dying.  This episode is the second in our 2025 three-part series highlighting the voices of communities who have historically been underrepresented in the grief world. The series is part of an ongoing collaboration between Dougy Center and The New York Life Foundation. We are deeply grateful for New York Life Foundation's tireless support and advocacy for children and teens who are grieving. Grief Out Loud is a production of Dougy Center, the National Grief Center for Children and Families in Portland, Oregon.

Ahead of the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, CancerNetwork® spoke with a variety of oncology experts about the late-breaking abstracts, plenary sessions, and other key presentations that may shift the paradigm across different cancer care fields. They highlighted anticipated clinical trial results that may transform the standard of care for gynecologic malignancies, lung cancer, and other disease types. Rachel N. Grisham, MD, section head of Ovarian Cancer and director of Gynecologic Medical Oncology at MSK Westchester of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared her anticipation of findings from the phase 3 ROSELLA trial (NCT05257408) assessing relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. She stated she was excited to see if the data may represent a new opportunity for this patient population. Next, MinhTri Nguyen, MD, a medical oncologist and hematologist at Stanford Health Care, highlighted a few breast cancer presentations to look out for. These topics included a plenary session on data from the phase 3 SERENA-6 study (NCT04964934) evaluating camizestrant in combination with CDK4/6 inhibitors for those with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer harboring emergent ESR1 mutations. Additionally, Eric K. Singhi, MD, assistant professor in the Department of General Oncology in the Division of Cancer Medicine, and assistant professor in the Department of Thoracic/Head and Neck Medical Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, spoke about a range of potentially practice-changing results in the lung cancer field. For example, he described a session focused on primary results of the phase 3 IMforte trial (NCT05091567) assessing lurbinectedin (Zepzelca) plus atezolizumab (Tecentriq) for those with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). According to Singhi, data from IMforte may shift the paradigm of maintenance therapy for this SCLC population. In the world of head and neck cancer, Douglas R. Adkins, MD, associate professor of Internal Medicine, Division of Oncology, Section of Medical Oncology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri, highlighted the session on the phase 3 NIVOPOSTOP GORTEC 2018-01 trial (NCT03576417). Investigators of this study evaluated nivolumab (Opdivo) in combination with chemoradiotherapy for those with resected head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Adkins noted his excitement to see how these data may impact the standard of care, particularly for patients in Europe, where investigators conducted the study. As part of an Oncology Decoded discussion, Benjamin Garmezy, MD, the associate director of genitourinary research and executive cochair of the Genitourinary Cancer Research Executive Committee at Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI) and medical oncologist at SCRI Oncology Partners specializing in genitourinary cancers, discussed key abstracts in bladder cancer. One specific presentation included additional findings from the phase 3 NIAGARA trial (NCT03732677), which may show how circulating tumor DNA can influence treatment decision-making regarding perioperative durvalumab (Imfinzi) for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

About this episode: For some people with a high risk of ovarian cancer, a standard approach has been full removal of the reproductive organs. But new research points to a far less invasive procedure called a salpingectomy, or removal of the fallopian tubes, as a potential “game changer” in ovarian cancer. In this episode: understanding high grade serous carcinoma—the most common type of ovarian cancer—the lack of screening tools, and why fallopian tube removal isn't yet available to more people. Guest: Dr. Rebecca Stone is an OBGYN, a professor in the Johns Hopkins Medicine Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, and the director of The Kelly Gynecologic Oncology Service. Host: Stephanie Desmon, MA, is a former journalist, author, and the director of public relations and communications for the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs, the largest center at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
