#AUA2010: The beginning of a new era for prostate cancer?

Past American Urological Association (AUA) meetings have seen a lot of same old, same old with very little that is new in the way of truly innovative and exciting new developments.  In many ways, prostate cancer is the male equivalent of ovarian cancer, with pharma companies considering it after the breast, lung and colorectal cancers, despite prostate cancer being fairly large in terms in epidemiology, from a pure numbers perspective. Why is this?

The Role of Diet and Exercise in a TMJ Treatment

Most people suffering from a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) syndrome held a common misconception that a TMJ treatment alone can relieve them of jaw pains and, ultimately, of the TMJ syndrome. Since a TMJ syndrome is closely connected to other disorders such as plugged ears, neck pain, and fibromyalgia, addressing the syndrome by a TMJ treatment alone would not suffice. This is where the role of diet and exercise comes in.

Modified measles virus shows potential for treating childhood brain tumors

Whew, that headline caught my attention just now on the Nationwide Children's Hospital site while searching for information on medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer that tends to affect children. After all the recent brouhaha in the UK over Andrew Wakefield being struck off for professional misconduct relating to his role in the MMR vaccination scandal, tensions may be raised at the idea of using a modified form of the measles virus to treat a childhood brain cancer.

Bayer’s Nexavar fails to gain NICE approval in liver cancer

“The drug, also known as sorafenib, extended lives by an average of 2.8 months at a cost of 27,000 pounds ($38,853) for each patient, NICE said. The Leverkusen, Germany-based company had offered to pay for every fourth pack of Nexavar when used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of cancer that starts in the liver. Few patients with the disease are able to undergo the surgery that could potentially cure them, NICE said.”   Source: Bloomberg No surprises there really and consistent with the approach the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) has taken over the last few years.

On valuing the Pharma client – vendor interaction

Recently, I’ve been observing and watching a number of interactions that I’ve been part of, from friends, acquaintances, clients and physicians and healthcare practitioners.  It dawned on me that no matter what we do, our satisfaction with the result of those interactions is directly tied to the involvement we go through
