No, Cellphones Don’t Cause Cancer. Probably [Wired]

In
other words, a dearth of data means that no one would conclude right
now that that cellphones cause cancer. “I think it’s an unsettled
question, it’s a legitimate question,” Brawley says. “I believe the
answer is no.” After all, he notes, brain tumor rates haven’t increased
over the last 40 years.

"What
[the VHA] is reporting is the initial experience for almost everybody,"
Dr. Tanoue said. "Until people really started doing lung cancer
screening, and began to understand the challenges of doing it properly,
you couldn’t have known what it was going to be like."

In
the trial on 4,348 women, published in the Journal of Clinical
Oncology, cancers were detected earlier, when they should be easier to
treat. However, it is not yet clear if the regular blood test would save
lives.

Statins do not benefit patients with lung cancer, new study shows [EurekAlert!]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recent
research into statins has claimed a role for the drugs in preventing
cancer development, or prolonging the survival of patients with several
common cancers, including lung cancer, and so generated much interest in
the medical community. But evidence published by a team from Imperial
College London and UCL (University College London) shows that the drugs
do not, in fact, benefit lung cancer patients at all.

has data to suggest that its use of four peptide chains to induce an
innate immune response can control cancers. But the company suspects it
can make more of an impact when combined with the bacterial
bioengineering approach Advaxis uses to stimulate the innate immune
system and trigger T-cell responses.

Study Examines Cancer Center Websites’ Information on Breast Cancer Treatment, Outcomes [ASCO]
|
|
|

Researchers
evaluated breast cancer information on 65 different cancer websites:
the National Cancer Institute (NCI), Susan G. Komen, and 63
NCI-designated cancer centers. While they found it easy to locate the
webpage that included information about breast cancer (median of two
clicks to access the page), the majority of websites did not contain
adequate information about treatment and care decisions.

Republicans worked together to pass legislation to fight cancer and
other diseases, to boost research funding, and to speed potentially
life-saving innovations to market.

also took the stage at HIMSS. “I want a future where I can sit at my
computer, figure out how similar patients were treated and learn how it
turned out,” he said. “We have enough data in the EHRs to do this
research. But every institution has got to figure out how to liberate
that data.”
