Lisa Manyon was diagnosed in 2017 with Squamous Cell Carcinoma at the base of her tongue. Two years prior to receiving her diagnosis, she received a divine appointment to write a book about healing with love. Lisa journaled about it, tucked it away, and had no idea why she would be given such an assignment. In 2017 Lisa was reminded of this as she navigated facing mortality, including a misdiagnosis that she refused to accept. She intuitively knew something BIG was going on and she pushed for the answers she needed to heal with love and become a cancer thriver. Lisa has been NED since 2017. Lisa is the author of Spiritual Sugar: The Divine Ingredients to Heal Yourself With Love Order your copy of Lisa's book, Spiritual Sugar at https://spiritualsugar.com For speaking and consulting inquiries for Lisa, visit WriteOnCreative.com ____________________ To learn more about the 10 Radical Remission Healing Factors, connect with a certified RR coach or join a virtual or in-person workshop visit www.radicalremission.com.

The saying "saving your skin" takes on extra meaning when you are outdoors. Living a "sun and fun" lifestyle can come with a price -- the sun's damaging UV rays and the risk of skin cancer. Hopefully, you practice safety by using sunscreens, hats and clothing to mitigate those harmful rays. Some people forget that sun damage and skin cancer can be synonymous. As spring and summer approach, how do we avoid skin cancer? And if it leaves a concerning spot on the skin, what do we do next? Host: Jonathan Fialkow, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Baptist Health who oversees Population Health, Primary Care, Cardiology, Endocrinology and other Medical Specialties Guest: Michael Raish, M.D., Mohs Micrographic Surgeon and Dermatologist, Baptist Health Miami Cancer Institute

Prognostic Significance of Senescence-related TME Genes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Aging-US

BUFFALO, NY- January 31, 2024 – A new #research paper was #published on the #cover of Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 2, entitled, “Prognostic significance of senescence-related tumor microenvironment genes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.” The impact of the senescence related microenvironment on cancer prognosis and therapeutic response remains poorly understood. In this new study, researchers Young Chan Lee, Yonghyun Nam, Minjeong Kim, Su Il Kim, Jung-Woo Lee, Young-Gyu Eun, and Dokyoon Kim from Kyung Hee University, Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong, and the University of Pennsylvania investigated the prognostic significance of senescence related tumor microenvironment genes (PSTGs) and their potential implications for immunotherapy response. Using the Cancer Genome Atlas- head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) data, the researchers identified two subtypes based on the expression of PSTGs, acquired from tumor-associated senescence genes, tumor microenvironment (TME)-related genes, and immune-related genes, using consensus clustering. Using the LASSO, they constructed a risk model consisting of senescence related TME core genes (STCGs). The two subtypes exhibited significant differences in prognosis, genetic alterations, methylation patterns, and enriched pathways, and immune infiltration. “Our risk model stratified patients into high-risk and low-risk groups and validated in independent cohorts.” The high-risk group showed poorer prognosis and immune inactivation, suggesting reduced responsiveness to immunotherapy. Additionally, the team observed a significant enrichment of STCGs in stromal cells using single-cell RNA transcriptome data. Their findings highlight the importance of the senescence related TME in HNSC prognosis and response to immunotherapy. “This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex interplay between senescence and the TME, with potential implications for precision medicine and personalized treatment approaches in HNSC.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.205346 Corresponding authors - Young-Gyu Eun - ygeun@khu.ac.kr, and Dokyoon Kim - dokyoon.kim@pennmedicine.upenn.edu Sign up for free Altmetric alerts about this article - https://aging.altmetric.com/details/email_updates?id=10.18632%2Faging.205346 Subscribe for free publication alerts from Aging - https://www.aging-us.com/subscribe-to-toc-alerts Keywords - aging, cellular senescence, head and neck cancer, immunotherapy, microenvironment, single cell About Aging-US Launched in 2009, Aging-US publishes papers of general interest and biological significance in all fields of aging research and age-related diseases, including cancer—and now, with a special focus on COVID-19 vulnerability as an age-dependent syndrome. Topics in Aging-US go beyond traditional gerontology, including, but not limited to, cellular and molecular biology, human age-related diseases, pathology in model organisms, signal transduction pathways (e.g., p53, sirtuins, and PI-3K/AKT/mTOR, among others), and approaches to modulating these signaling pathways.

The approval is based on the EMPA-KIDNEY phase 3 trial, demonstrating a significant reduction in kidney disease progression and cardiovascular death compared to a placebo.  Welireg (belzutifan) for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma The FDA granted Priority Review for Merck's Welireg for advanced renal cell carcinoma post other treatments. Welireg, a HIF-2α inhibitor, is being evaluated in the LITESPARK-005 trial, where it was compared with everolimus for advanced RCC treatment post PD-1/L1 or VEGF-TKI therapies. Tevimbra (tislelizumab) for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma The FDA is reviewing an application for Tevimbra for treating advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Supported by the phase 3 RATIONALE 306 study, the drug improves overall survival rates when combined with chemotherapy in these patients. Neffy Epinephrine Nasal Spray The FDA rejected the approval of Neffy, a needle-free nasal spray for allergic reactions. Despite a positive Advisory Committee vote, the FDA demands further testing. ARS Pharmaceuticals plans to re-submit its application and appeal the decision in 2024.  Intro and outro music Garden Of Love by Pk jazz Collective

A new research paper was published in Oncotarget's Volume 13 on October 20, 2022, entitled, “Nectin-4 is widely expressed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.” Nectin-4 has been successfully established as a target molecule in locally advanced and metastatic bladder cancer. An antibody-drug conjugate (enfortumab-vedotin) directed against nectin-4 has shown marked tumor remission rates in this tumor type, which is known for high expression rates of nectin-4. As head and neck cancer and urothelial carcinomas share morphological and molecular similarities, researchers Christine Sanders, Jan-Frederic Lau, Dimo Dietrich, Sebastian Strieth, Peter Brossart, and Glen Kristiansen from University Medical Center Bonn and University Hospital Bonn aimed to evaluate Nectin-4 expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). A previously described and clinically characterized cohort of HNSCC (n = 159) was analyzed by immunohistochemistry for Nectin-4 expression. The expression data was correlated to clinico-pathological parameters including patient outcome. Nectin-4 was found in 86.2% of HNSCC, with medium/high expression seen in 32.7% of cases. Non smokers and p16 positive HNSCC showed a higher expression of Nectin-4 (p < 0.005). There was no correlation of Nectin-4 with grading or tumor stage. Nectin-4 positive tumors showed significantly better survival (log rank p = 0.006). “Similar to urothelial carcinoma, Nectin-4 is found in the majority of HNSCC, which clearly warrants further studies to clarify if HNSCC also respond to targeted therapy with enfortumab-vedotin. Moreover, expression of Nectin-4 is associated with HPV infection and may serve as a prognostic marker in HNSCC.” DOI: https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28299 Correspondence to: Glen Kristiansen - Email: glen.kristiansen@ukbonn.de Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDY21YpFsKc Keywords: Nectin-4, enfortumab-vedotin, HNSCC, p16 About Oncotarget: Oncotarget (a primarily oncology-focused, peer-reviewed, open access journal) aims to maximize research impact through insightful peer-review; eliminate borders between specialties by linking different fields of oncology, cancer research and biomedical sciences; and foster application of basic and clinical science.
