Angry constituent here: "It’s very hard to get people to believe that anyone is trying to end research into finding cures for diseases that affect everyone. The richest people get #cancer & #Alzheimers & #Parkinson’s. . . . & yet it is happening. Quite simply, until elected officials start hearing from angry constituents in town halls who are pissed that their futures & the futures of their loved ones are being lit on fire for no reason, then nothing matters."

@bicmay@med-mastodon.com"A federal bankruptcy judge in Houston on Monday rejected Johnson & Johnson’s request to approve a $9 billion settlement with tens of thousands of people who are suing the company over claims that its talcum powder products caused cancer.
The proposal would have resolved nearly all current and future claims that the company’s talc products contained asbestos and caused cancer."

The New York TimesMy little brother succumbed to stomach cancer two weeks ago. We shared a love of music, so I'll be posting artists and releases we bonded over through our lifetimes.
Sadly, I'm seeing Agnostic Front tonight and was hoping he could've made it. In our teens we sat around talking skateboards and fast music, playing around on his bass. AF was a staple, especially this album and song. The politics. The anti-religious implication of the band name.

@wdlindsy@toad.social"They are gutting medical research in 'colleges and hospitals in every state.' And they are aiming to kick millions—as many as 36 million of the hardest-working Americans—off of Medicaid.
And that's just the beginning…."

@wdlindsy@toad.social"The war the Musk/Trump regime is waging against America's health care has not been contained to a single organ of our government. It is already metastasizing into every aspect of our lives.
They are working to 'simultaneously increase toxins in our air, food, and water.'"

Scientists in China have developed a new cancer treatment by engineering tumors to mimic pork, triggering the body's immune system to attack them with precision. Using a genetically modified virus, they disguise cancer cells as foreign pig tissue, leading to a hyperacute immune rejection response that attacks the tumors while leaving healthy cells intact. The study was published in the journal Cell on January 18, 2025.

The mRNA technology behind coronavirus vaccines is now being used to create bespoke vaccines for cancer patients.
"Cancer vaccines weren’t a proper field of research before the pandemic. There was nothing. Apart from one exception, pretty much every clinical trial had failed. With the pandemic, however, we proved that mRNA vaccines were possible.
mRNA cancer vaccines work by giving the body instructions to make a harmless piece of a cancer-related protein. This trains the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells carrying that protein. Think of it like a training manual for security guards. The vaccine gives the immune system a guide on what cancer looks like, so it knows exactly who to watch for and remove.
Going from mRNA Covid vaccines to mRNA cancer vaccines is straightforward: same fridges, same protocol, same drug, just a different patient.
In the current trials, we do a biopsy of the patient, sequence the tissue, send it to the pharmaceutical company, and they design a personalized vaccine that’s bespoke to that patient’s cancer. That vaccine is not suitable for anyone else. It’s like science fiction.
The UK was ready. We had fridges and we had world-class manufacturing and research facilities. During the pandemic, we had proven we could open and deliver clinical trials fast. Also, the UK had established a genomic global lead with Genomics England and the 100,000 Genome Project. All doctors and nurses in this country are trained in genomics.
So the UK government signed two partnerships: one with BioNTech to provide 10,000 patients with access to personalized cancer treatments by 2030, and a 10-year investment with Moderna in an innovation and technology center with capacity to produce up to 250 million vaccines. The stars were aligned.
For many years, we believed that research is inherently slow. It used to take 20 years to get a drug to market. Most cancer patients, unfortunately, will succumb by the time a drug gets to market. We showed the world that it could be done in a year if you modernize your process, run parts of the process in parallel, and use digital tools.
We have a trial to stop skin cancer coming back after you cut it out. It’s now completed. We over-recruited again, just like every single one of the trials that we ran, and the trial finished one year ahead of schedule. That’s completely unheard of in cancer trials because they normally run over-long.
What will happen now is that, over the next six to 12 months, we will monitor the people in the trial and work out if there’s a difference between the people who took the cancer vaccine and the ones who didn’t. We’re hoping to have results by the end of the year or beginning of 2026. If it’s successful, we will have invented the first approved personalized mRNA vaccine, within only five years of the first licensed mRNA vaccine for Covid. That’s pretty impressive."
