  • Price Controls on Pharma
    Resolved: The United States federal government should impose price controls on the Pharmaceutical industry Affirmation Blocks POOR PEOPLE The pharmaceutical industry is literally killing off poor people Hartmann et. al 15 Thomas Carl "Thom" Hartmann is an American radio host, author, former psychotherapist, businessman, and progressive political commentator. Daily Take Team, 6-3-2015, "Big Pharma Is Killing Us," Truthout, http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31160-big-pharma-is-killing-us //GF DDI 17 Drug company profits are literally killing people - and now even doctors are speaking out. Dr. Leonard Saltz, chief of gastrointestinal oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, rebuked the pharmaceutical industry for the sharp rise in cancer drug prices over the last decade. The median monthly price for new cancer drugs nearly doubled between 2000 and 2014 - from a monthly cost of $4,716 between 2000 and 2004 to a monthly cost of about $9,900 between 2010 and 2014. Dr. Saltz explained part of the problem: "Cancer-drug prices are not related to the value of the drug. Prices are based on what has come before and what the seller believes the market will bear." See more news and opinion from Thom Hartmann at Truthout here. And that's a neat feature of our current patent system: Drug companies don't have to worry about what people can afford to pay for a product. Because monopolies set their own prices. And that's what a patent is: a state-backed monopoly on a product. Thomas Jefferson knew that monopolies would be a threat to the people and the people's government.

  • Lenalidomide for Newly Diagnosed MM and the Incidence of Second Primary Cancer
    Key ASH Presentations Issue 7, 2012 Lenalidomide for Newly Diagnosed MM and the Incidence of Second Primary Cancer For more visit ResearchToPractice.com/5MJCASH2012 CME INFORMATION OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITY The annual American Society of Hematology (ASH) meeting is unmatched in its importance with regard to advancements in hematologic cancer and related disorders. It is targeted by many members of the clinical research community as the optimal forum in which to unveil new clinical data. This creates an environment each year in which published results and new information lead to the emergence of many new therapeutic agents and changes in the indications for existing treatments across virtually all malignant and benign hematologic disorders. As online access to posters and plenary presentations is not currently available, a need exists for additional resources to distill the information presented at the ASH annual meeting for those clinicians unable to attend but desiring to remain up to date on the new data released there. To bridge the gap between research and patient care, this CME activity will deliver a serial review of the most important emerging data sets from the latest ASH meeting, including expert perspectives on how these new evidence-based concepts can be applied to routine clinical care. This activity will assist medical oncologists, hematologists and hematology-oncology fellows in the formulation of optimal clinical management strategies and the timely application of new research findings to best-practice patient care. LEARNING OBJECTIVES • Integrate emerging research information on the use of proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory agents to individualize induction treatment recommendations and maintenance therapeutic approaches for elderly patients with multiple myeloma.

  • Small Molecule NF-Κb Pathway Inhibitors in Clinic
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Small Molecule NF-κB Pathway Inhibitors in Clinic Venkataramanan Ramadass 1,*, Thamilselvan Vaiyapuri 1,* and Vinay Tergaonkar 1,2 1 Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB), Singapore 138673, Singapore; [email protected] 2 Department of Pathology, NUS, Singapore 117597, Singapore * Correspondence: [email protected] (V.R.); [email protected] (T.V.) Received: 12 June 2020; Accepted: 14 July 2020; Published: 21 July 2020 Abstract: Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling is implicated in all major human chronic diseases, with its role in transcription of hundreds of gene well established in the literature. This has propelled research into targeting the NF-κB pathways for modulating expression of those genes and the diseases mediated by them. In-spite of the critical, but often promiscuous role played by this pathway and the inhibition causing adverse drug reaction, currently many biologics, macromolecules, and small molecules that modulate this pathway are in the market or in clinical trials. Furthermore, many marketed drugs that were later found to also have NF-κB targeting activity were repurposed for new therapeutic interventions. Despite the rising importance of biologics in drug discovery, small molecules got around 76% of US-FDA (Food and Drug Administration-US) approval in the last decade. This encouraged us to review information regarding clinically relevant small molecule inhibitors of the NF-κB pathway from cell surface receptor stimulation to nuclear signaling. We have also highlighted the underexplored targets in this pathway that have potential to succeed in clinic.
