Advocating for Action in HCC: Delivering Impartial and Personalized Care – 2 u And these are the learning objectives for this activity. Learning Objectives Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: o Describe health disparities in o Identify patient populations at risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developing HCC to eliminate that contribute to inequalities in disparities in HCC care for all health outcomes patients o Implement HCC screening and o Select appropriate treatment surveillance in racial and ethnic approaches for patients with HCC groups, disadvantaged populations, to help overcome disparities in care and in those at high risk for and promote health equity and development of HCC to improve improve quality of life early detection and prognosis u To start, let’s make sure we understand what is meant by health and healthcare disparities. Understanding Health Disparities and Inequities in HCC Advocating for Action in HCC: Delivering Impartial and Personalized Care – 3 u So when we’re talking about health and healthcare What Are Health and Healthcare Disparities? disparities, we’re referencing the difference in health or healthcare between groups o Health and healthcare disparities refer to differences in health and that are closely linked healthcare between groups that are with social, economic, and closely linked with social, environmental disadvantage. economic, and/or environmental So these can be examples disadvantage such as race and ethnicity, – Disparities occur across many dimensions, including race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, their socioeconomic status, age, location, physical location, sex, disability sex, disability status, and sexual status, and sexual orientation. orientation Artiga et al. 2020. https://www.kff.org/racial-equity-and-health-policy/issue-brief/disparities-in-health-and-health-care-five-key-questions-and-answers/. u More specifically, the National Cancer Institute defines What Are Cancer Health Disparities? cancer health disparities as differences in cancer measures Cancer disparities (cancer health disparities) consist of differences in such as the number of new cancer measures such as: cases, all existing cases, deaths, cancer-related health – Incidence (new cases) – Survivorship, including quality of life complications, survivorship, after cancer treatment – Prevalence (all existing cases) financial burden, screening – Mortality (deaths) – Financial burden of cancer or rates, or stage at diagnosis. – Morbidity (cancer-related health related health conditions complications) – Screening rates – Stage at diagnosis National Cancer Institute. 2020. https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/understanding/disparities Advocating for Action in HCC: Delivering Impartial and Personalized Care – 4 u One such example is depicted Cancer Death Rates* by Race and Ethnicity, here in this graph by the Centers for Disease Control US, 2013-2017 and Prevention. It’s looking at cancer death rates by race and ethnicity for the years 2013 to 2017. What you will see here is that the rates of cancer deaths do vary by race and ethnicity with non-Hispanic blacks, both male and female, having higher rates of cancer deaths during that period than any other racial and ethnic group. You might also notice the *Per 100,000, age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population. †Data based on Purchased/Referred Care Deliver Area counties. ‡Persons of Hispanic origin may be of any race. differences between males and Sources: National Center of Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019. https://www.cancer.org/content/dam/cancer-org/research/cancer-facts-and-statistics/annual-cancer-facts-and-figures/2020/incidence-and-mortality-rates-race-and-ethnicity-2012-2017.pdf females where overall, males were more likely to die from cancer than females across each of those groups. u Why do these disparities exist? There are a number Why Do Health Disparities Exist? of reasons in the literature that suggest why we may o Social determinants of health see the differences in cancer health outcomes. There are o Unconscious/implicit bias social determinants of health Limited trust between patients and provider so things beyond biology o may be implicated in these o Limited trust between patients and the healthcare system disparities. We also know that unconscious or implicit bias o The payment system for medical professionals has a role, as well as limitations in trust both between patients and providers as well as patients and the healthcare system, in general, and there may be implications of the way in which health systems and providers are paid that may play a role. So we’ll briefly talk about each one of those now. Advocating for Action in HCC: Delivering Impartial and Personalized Care – 5 Social Determinants of Health Economic Neighborhood and Community and Health Care Stability Physical Environment Education Food Social Context System Employment Housing Literacy Hunger Social Health Integration Coverage Income Transportation Language Access to Healthy Options Support Provider Expenses Safety Early Childhood Systems Availability Education Debt Parks Community Provide Vocational Medical Bills Playgrounds Engagement Linguistic and Training Cultural Support Walkability Discrimination Higher Education Competency Zip Code/ Stress Quality of Care Geography Health Outcomes Mortality, Morbidity, Life Expectancy, Health Care Expenditures, Health Status, Functional Limitations Artiga et al. 2020. https://www.kff.org/racial-equity-and-health-policy/issue-brief/disparities-in-health-and-health-care-five-key-questions-and-answers/. u First is social determinants code in determining your in the disparity. So whether of health. So we all probably health.’ So where you live, your you have appropriate social easily recognize that our housing and transportation, all supports to help you through biology and our genetics of that plays a role in terms of your cancer and other issues, play a role in our health and our health outcomes. whether you’re experiencing health outcomes. But what Education is another one of a significant amount of stress literature has shown is that those areas that’s considered or discrimination, and how there are these other things to be a social determinant well you’re integrated with that are not related directly of health.

  • Predictive QSAR Tools to Aid in Early Process Development of Monoclonal Antibodies
    Predictive QSAR tools to aid in early process development of monoclonal antibodies John Micael Andreas Karlberg Published work submitted to Newcastle University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Engineering November 2019 Abstract Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become one of the fastest growing markets for diagnostic and therapeutic treatments over the last 30 years with a global sales revenue around $89 billion reported in 2017. A popular framework widely used in pharmaceutical industries for designing manufacturing processes for mAbs is Quality by Design (QbD) due to providing a structured and systematic approach in investigation and screening process parameters that might influence the product quality. However, due to the large number of product quality attributes (CQAs) and process parameters that exist in an mAb process platform, extensive investigation is needed to characterise their impact on the product quality which makes the process development costly and time consuming. There is thus an urgent need for methods and tools that can be used for early risk-based selection of critical product properties and process factors to reduce the number of potential factors that have to be investigated, thereby aiding in speeding up the process development and reduce costs. In this study, a framework for predictive model development based on Quantitative Structure- Activity Relationship (QSAR) modelling was developed to link structural features and properties of mAbs to Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) retention times and expressed mAb yield from HEK cells. Model development was based on a structured approach for incremental model refinement and evaluation that aided in increasing model performance until becoming acceptable in accordance to the OECD guidelines for QSAR models.
