Nearly twenty-five years ago, the scientific breakthrough of mammalian cloning marked a monumental moment in medicine and science. Anticipating the collision it would have with ethical decision making in medicine, I, the only physician-scientist in the U.S. Senate at the time, journeyed to the University of Edinburgh in Scotland to personally visit Sir Ian Wilmut at his research lab at the Roslin Institute.

My house call to Dolly in 1997: I stand with Dolly, the first ever mammal to be cloned from an adult ... [+] somatic cell, during my journey to visit her creator and caretaker, Sir Ian Wilmut.

Professor Wilmut just months before in 1996 had cloned a sheep from an adult somatic cell, shocking the world. This was the first successful attempt of its kind. All over the world people were wondering: would we be cloning a human being next? We talked science, we talked ethics, and we talked about his creations potential impact on altering the course of human history. I also met and examined the cloned sheep, Dolly, in her stall.

Dolly, named after Tennessees own Dolly Parton, was a Finnish Dorset sheep cloned from a single, adult mammary gland cell. Her creation, birth, and short life were scientific feats that immediately sparked global concern and discourse on the increasingly complex moral and ethical dilemmas posed by a sudden discovery of life-manipulating science.

Wilmut and colleagues published their achievement in February 1997, having kept Dolly secret for seven months. We, as a society, were quickly forced to answer difficult, probing questions. A few months later on the Senate floor, I borrowed a question that the Washington Post editorial board had posed a few years before: Is there a line that should not be crossed even for scientific or other gain, and if so where is it?

Here are my remarks in the Senate chamber in 1998:

So it is vital that our public debate and reflection on scientific developments keep pace, and even anticipate and prepare for new scientific knowledge. The moral and ethical dilemmas inherent in the cloning of human beings may well be our greatest test to date. We do not simply seek knowledge, but the wisdom to apply that knowledge. As with each of the mind-boggling scientific advances of the last century, we know that there is the potential for both good and evil in this technology. Congressional Record February 2, 1998

Years removed, I now reflect back on the confusion, questions, and status quo that Dolly challenged.

Dolly was the first mammal to be successfully cloned from an adult somatic cell, which is any type of bodily cell that is not a reproductive germ cell. The process Wilmut developed is technically called somatic cell nuclear transfer, colloquially known as cloning. It is the process of transferring the nuclear DNA of a donor somatic cell into an enucleated oocyte, followed by embryo development and then transfer to a surrogate recipient, followed by live birth.

Dollys creation in a test tube and eventual birth marked a major milestone in scientific research, suggesting that an animal could be cloned to create an exact replica using genetic material derived from theoretically any type of body cell. It opened the world to staggering new possibilities in reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning.

Soon after Dollys birth, another parallel and similarly monumental finding was made: in 1998 embryonic stem cells were discovered. These cells are a highly unique type of unprogrammed somatic cell with the exceptional ability to both reproduce unlimited exact copies of themselves and develop into more specialized cell types, such as heart, lung, kidney or skin cells. And though seemingly miraculous in potential, these cells could not be created or programmed from any other type of cell and could only be collected from embryos an ethical dilemma because collection for research required destruction of the embryo itself.

Dolly changed this. Her successful creation paved the way for future scientists to develop a technique to independently produce equally powerful pluripotent stem cells by reprogramming other adult somatic cells, revolutionizing genetic therapy, and completely nullifying the ethical dilemma of collecting embryonic stem cells from embryos. Similarly, Dolly also highlighted the potential for scientists to create new tissues and organs for diseased patients, and to preserve the genetic material of endangered species.

But, along with these positive contributions came widespread concern about the ethics of cloning, especially around potential attempts to clone another human being. Many, including myself, feared this type of technology, if left unregulated, would be misused and abused. Indeed, cloning evoked great scientific power that demanded even greater ethical responsibility, and there were no established ethical guardrails at the time to monitor this duty.

In retrospect, these fears have diminished in part due to proactive measures and to the inherent complexities of the human genome (cloning an entire human being is, after all, a large jump from cloning a sheep). Importantly, legislative and scientific communities have been resolute and unified in their opposition to cloning human beings.

Though a human embryo was indeed successfully cloned in 2013, no known progress has been made when it comes to attempts to clone a human being. Yet the technique to create Dolly has been repurposed widely and has led to numerous scientific innovations.

In 2003, six years after her birth, Dolly became sick and was euthanized. Her decline in health was due to the development of tumors in her chest; some examinations of her cells suggested that she was also aging prematurely.

Despite her relatively short life (the average sheep lifespan is ~10-12 years), Dollys influence on the scientific community has been profound. Not only did she force scientists and researchers to redefine the ethics of their field, but she also laid the foundation for other significant scientific advancements in the fast-evolving new field we know today as regenerative medicine.

One powerful example is gene therapy and editing, where specific genes are targeted, edited, and repaired to protect against disease, cancer, autoimmune disorders, and even rewiring immune system cells for treatment-resistant cancer patients. This revolutionary innovation is made possible by CRISPR technology (the same technology that enabled rapid vaccine development for COVID-19), which is currently celebrating its 10-year anniversary.

Genetic cloning was also made possible thanks to Dolly. This is a type of cloning where scientists create copies of genes within DNA segments to combine with plasmid DNA, or self-replicating genetic material, and then place this new plasmid into a host organism, such as a bacterium, yeast, or mammal cell. This process is used to develop vaccines and antigen tests and is also used to identify useful genetic traits in plants, which can be replicated on a larger scale through the genetic modification of seeds.

Further, cloning techniques have also helped to advance agricultural practices. Farmers can use cloning technology to quickly introduce favored characteristics of prize livestock (such as the ability to produce large amounts of high-quality milk) into a herd by cloning and breeding. These livestock will then further reproduce using traditional breeding or assisted reproductive technology.

Despite advances in genetic cloning and agricultural practices, cloning especially the additional attempts at cloning whole organisms remains variable and highly inefficient.

Successful attempts have been made by companies like Sooam Biotech Research and ViaGen Pets to clone dogs and kittens for wealthy pet owners. But, even today, the success rate of animal cloning is estimated to be less than 30%. In fact, many animal rights activists oppose the practice citing animal welfare. In 2015, the European Union banned the practice of livestock cloning.

Overall interest in cloning slowed as advances in adult stem cell research gained traction in the 2000s. This resulted primarily from scientists newfound ability to take adult human cells, for example skin cells, and reprogram them back into an earlier, more primitive but more powerful embryonic-like, pluripotent cells.

This technique was pioneered by Japanese scientist Shinya Yamanaka in 2006, for which he was awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Yamanakas discovery of reprogramming already specialized adult cells to create induced pluripotent stem cells (IPS) took the ethical issue of destroying embryos for research off the table. Some scientists continue to look to cloning as a way to develop genetically unique stem cells that can be used to reduce the risk of triggering an immune response.

Notes taken shortly after my visit with Dolly.

We have come a long way since my exploratory journey from the Senate floor in Washington, DC, to the stall and research laboratory that housed Dolly in Edinburgh in 1997.

For all the controversy that Dolly sparked during her short life, her contributions to society have been nothing short of remarkable. She forced thought leaders, researchers, and policymakers around the world to confront the ethics of cloning. And, she encouraged us, as a society, to weigh in and engage on the ethical considerations of increasingly frequent scientific discoveries.

On all of these fronts, we worked tirelessly to instill and adhere to a strong scientific code, focusing on the bettering of science, innovation, and technology for societal good. Cloning gave us that first glimpse into the future.

As I said on the floor of the Senate on February 3, 1998:

This cloning debate, I think, maybe for the first time in the history of this body [the US Senate], forces us to address what is inevitable as we look to the future, and that is a rapid-fire, one-after-another onslaught of new scientific technological innovation that has to be assimilated into our ethical-social fabric. Congressional Record February 3, 1998

What I said then still holds true today, Science and ethics must march hand in hand. Congressional Record February 11, 1998

Twenty-Five Years After My House Call To Dolly: What Have We Learned About Cloning And How Did We Learn It? - Forbes

CASE SUMMARY

A 54-year-oldwoman presented with Revised International Staging System stage II multiple myeloma, based on evaluations that showed a hemoglobin level of 7.0 g/dL, 2-microglobulin of 6 mg/dl, albumin 3.2 g/dL, calcium 11.3 mg/dL, lactate dehydrogenase of 200 U/L, and creatinine clearance of 45 mL/min. Bone marrow showed 22% clonal plasma cells. Serum kappa free light chains were 24 mg/dL. She had no cytogenetic abnormalities and an ECOG performance score of 1. A PET/CT scan showed multiple bone lesions in the vertebrae. She had no extramedullary disease. She was diagnosed with IgG-kappa myeloma and was considered transplant eligible.

Daratumumab (Darzalex), bortezomib (Velcade), lenalidomide (Revlimid), and dexamethasone (Dara-VRd) induction therapy was initiated. She achieved a very good partial response (VGPR) post induction therapy. She underwent stem cell mobilization and 2 months later underwent autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). Her post-ASCT response was a VGPR.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

CAITLIN COSTELLO, MD: This patient did get a quadruplet regimen with dara-VRd. She achieved a VGPR post-induction, had stem cells mobilized, underwent her transplant, and post-transplant her response is a VGPR. What would you do next?

THOMAS DEKKER, MD: Consolidation with CAR [chimeric antigen receptor] T-cell therapy.

COSTELLO: With CAR T cell, sure. Youre going for it; I like it. This patient is post-transplant, they have a VGPR. The GRIFFIN study [NCT02874742] would give these patients consolidation with dara-VRd.

PREETI CHAUDHARY, MD: I would not do CAR T-cell therapy.

COSTELLO: What would you do?

CHAUDHARY: In my opinion, in multiple myeloma, patients do a maximum of 11 months with CAR T-cell therapy. It has a good response, but I dont think thats sustainable.

COSTELLO: I appreciate throwing ideas out there. That is not something we have an option to do right now. Its an interesting option, and something we can talk about; but yes, I agree with you. I think for the meantime, short of trials that are looking at doing CAR T-cell therapyparticularly for those patients who have not had an adequate response to transplant or consolidation, or patients who relapse shortly after their transplantI think the standard of care as it stands now is doing consolidation or trying to find a maintenance regimen to get them to minimal residual disease [MRD] negativity.

With all that being said, what are we going to do now for these patients? Weve talked about what these transplant eligible patients are getting consolidation and maintenance; weve talked about maintenance approaches for these patients who get quadruplets, to put them on doublets. Seeing all those deep response rates, is anyone getting cold on transplants? If we are going to get 90% remission rates, does anyone reconsider the role of transplant here?

PAMELA MIEL, MD: I dont make that call, meaning I still send patients to the transplant doctors to see if theyre going to proceed with the transplant or not. But, if theyre transplant eligible, they get referred.

COSTELLO: As a transplanter, I thank you for that. We want to see these patients, make the decisions, have the discussion with the patients so we can look at their risk/benefit profile, and understand their responses to their current therapy. So, please still send them in their third cycle, if not earlier, so we can have those discussions and make plans.

There are a lot of maintenance regimens that are out there, and different things to choose from; a whole other conversation in and of itself. Lenalidomide is the mainstay where we have an overall survival benefit, where we dont have it in any other maintenance regimens.1 But it does allow for the option of continued doublets. I think we will soon see daratumumab and lenalidomide as a doublet get added on to that maintenance therapy once we have some of these randomized trials that are going on that show the continued benefit of patients to get daratumumab in the maintenance setting if they did not receive it in the up-front setting.

DISCUSSION QUESTION

How likely are you to change your practice with respect to management of transplant eligible newly diagnosed myeloma?

DEKKER: I already use quadruplet.

MILAN SHETH, MD: I feel that we still need a lot of long-term data to get a better sense of what it is that were achieving with the quadruplet therapy. Im still not convinced everybody needs quadruplet therapy. I think somebody else had already said that we know were going to get better responses because were using great drugs, but do we need to use everything up-front? I feel like theres still a lot of unanswered questions here.

MIEL: Ive been wanting to put patients on quadruplet treatment. I dont know if you know Nina Shah, MD, over at UC San Francisco, but Ive attended some of her talks, and shes pushing for the quadruplet treatment. The only thing that changed my mind was that when I spoke to the transplant doctor at UC San Diego, he said, If its not very high-risk disease, Id go with VRd [bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone]. So, I put the patient on VRd. But I probably would want to put someone on dara-VRd, given the chance.

COSTELLO: Yes. I think that my takeaway from the data has been that we would, of course, love long-term data to come out, butwe have to wait a long time for it. While were waiting for some of these phase 3 studies to go on, which are happening now to look at real randomized data, to play out, I find that this is just too intriguing to not do quadruplets for everybody now.

Since [these data were presented at [the 2021 American Society of Hematology annual meeting], Ive transitioned just about everyone whos at least transplant eligible over to quadruplet regimens now.2 Any patients who are on the fence, where Im not sure if theyre going to be eligible for transplant, I still will try and give them the benefit of a quadruplet regimen, and very quickly drop the bortezomib if I get worried about them, and end up with dara-Vd [daratumumab, lenalidomide, dexamethasone]. But I think these MRD negativity rates are just too good, and if that is going to be the true surrogate end point that were all aiming for, dara-VRd has been my go-to for the last 6-plus months or so for these patients, until someone tells me otherwise.

Theyre here to save your travel plans this summer... - The Sun

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Codex Beauty Labs, Silicon Valley's plant-based biotech skincare company launched its third collection called Shaant, that addresses oily and acne-prone skin by helping to reduce sebum production, exfoliate, encourage skin turnover and soothe irritation. Shaant, meaning "peace" and "calm" in Hindi, is often paired with "connectedness" in Ayurvedic philosophy.

Logo

"Increasing levels of stress in our society, stress, poor quality sleep, rising pollution, as well as unhealthy eating and alcohol habits have all contributed to increased acne in both teenagers and adults. Through Ayurvedic plant databases in India, we have identified actives that address two root causes, namely sebum overproduction, and accumulation of dead skin cells in pores," says Dr. Barb Paldus, Founder and CEO of Codex Beauty Labs. "Shaant also leverages our patented PreservX preservation system that supports microbiome health so we are proud that Shaant is the first MyMicrobiome-certified collection for acne-prone skin."

The Shaant products were formulated in partnership with Dr. Raja Sivamani, an integrative dermatologist and certified Ayurvedic practitioner, and leverage biotech-manufactured plant stem cells from Indian plants long valued by Ayurvedic healers for their calming, soothing and balancing properties.

"I am committed to individualizing patient care and my passion for practical research. By integrating concepts from Ayurvedic medicine, plant sciences, and food sciences, I look to push the boundaries of integrative therapies to make them better for our patients and to better educate those around me. This is the philosophy behind the Shaant skincare collection for acne-prone skin: Ayurvedic plants, such as gotu kola or patchouli, that have been vetted with Western scientific tools, like their effect on gene expression in skin cells and clinical tests on patients with acne." Dr. Sivamani added, "I always love to try to bridge the Ayurvedic principles into the western principles. The way Ayurveda looks at the body is slightly different, but actually it really beautifully integrates with the western approach when you start building these bridges. Shaant is a great example of this confluence."

Story continues

The collection will launch in two phases:

The collection harnesses the patent-pending ShaantComplex, a proprietary blend of derived from terrestrial and marine plants that help control oiliness, shed dead skin cells, reduce pore diameter, and help reduce redness. Each plant addresses the acne inflammasome in distinct yet synergistic ways. The ShaantComplex is supplemented by other Ayurvedic plants or fruits that are known for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and skin tone improving properties.

The first four Shaant products are certified MyMicrobiome, Vegan, Leaping Bunny, and EWG Verified. The cleanser and toner are also certified EcoCert COSMOS natural.

Everyproduct in the Shaant collection undergoes efficacy testing at a third-party clinical facility. Measurements are made on a statistically meaningful population using instrumentation accepted by dermatologists for quantifying specific skin parameters. This data is summarized in an efficacy panel that provides a transparent snapshot of product performance to the consumer. The entire collection, including future OTC products, is undergoing an IRB clinical trial under the supervision of Dr. Sivamani.

All products are manufactured in a high-tech cosmetic cGMP (ISO22716) facility to deliver the highest quality. All products contain sustainably sourced ingredients housed inplant-based polyethylene tubes or 50% PCR PET bottles, which reduce each product's carbon footprint from about 50% to 100%.

About Codex Beauty Labs

Based in Silicon Valley and led by scientist Dr. Barb Paldus, Codex Beauty Labs is committed to creating the highest standard in sustainable skincare and biotech plant-based alternatives to restore and protect the skin barrier and support a healthy microbiome.

CAR T-cell therapy, autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), and novel agents each have a role to play in the second-line management of patients with primary refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), according to Jason Westin, MD, MS, FACP, and Laurie H. Sehn, MD, MPH, who provided perspective on the optimal use of each modality during a case-based presentation at the 2022 Pan Pacific Lymphoma Conference.1,2

Westin, director, Lymphoma Clinical Research, section chief, Aggressive Lymphoma, and associate professor, Department of Lymphoma/Myeloma, Division of Cancer Medicine at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, started the session by presenting a case of a 70-year-old man with a failure to thrive with progressive bowel obstruction. The man had decreased urine output, a performance status of 1, rising lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of 1.5 x the upper limit of normal, and an International Prognostic Index (IPI) of 4. A biopsy confirmed high-grade double-hit DLBCL with MYC and BCL2 translocations.

The patient was started with dose-adjusted R-EPOCH and although his gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms improved during the first cycle of chemotherapy, he developed worsening shoulder pain in weeks 2 and 3 of cycle 2 of treatment. An interim PET scan performed after 2 cycles of treatment confirmed a significant improvement in tumor burden but persistent hypermetabolic lesion in the right humerus and a standardized uptake value of 7.

There is a lot of controversy in our field about how we interpret an interim positive PET [result], Westin said. We know the negative predictive value is strong, but the positive predictive value is rather poor.

As such, a bone biopsy was performed on the lesion in the humerus, confirming CD10-positive B-cell lymphoma. Westin argued that the patient was unlikely to achieve a complete response (CR) at the end of treatment, and as such, alternative regimens should then be considered. However, patients with refractory disease have poor outcomes with salvage chemotherapy, which led Westin to consider a clinical trial.

[ZUMA-12 (NCT03761056)] was the clinical trial we had open at the time, which Ill argue is something we should consider for our patients who have high-risk disease in the frontline setting: an early switch to a CAR T-cell therapy, Westin said.

The phase 2 trial enrolled patients with high-grade double-hit or triple-hit B-cell lymphoma and large B-cell lymphoma with an IPI score of at least 3.3 Patients had to have a positive interim PET scan following 2 cycles of an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and anthracycline-containing regimen.

Patients underwent leukapheresis and optional nonchemotherapy bridging therapy followed by conditioning chemotherapy consisting of 30 mg/m2 of intravenous (IV) fludarabine and 500 mg/m2 of IV cyclophosphamide on days 5, 4, and 3. They subsequently received a single IV infusion of axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel; Yescarta) at 2 x 106 CAR T cells/kg on day 0.

The CR rate achieved with the CAR T-cell therapy was impressive, according to Westin, at 78% (n = 29) and benefit was consistent across subgroups. The 1-year event-free survival rate with axi-cel was 72.5% (95% CI, 53.1%-84.9%).

In terms of safety, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurred in all patients, but the rate of grade 3 CRS was low, at 8%, Westin said.

Westin acknowledged that although axi-cel could be saved for relapse, findings presented at the 2021 ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition comparing the populations in ZUMA-12 and ZUMA-1 (NCT02348216) showed better CAR T-cell expansion in patients who had received less chemotherapy.4

With this in mind, the patient was enrolled to ZUMA-12. He developed late, low-grade CRS and immune effector cellassociated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) but went on to achieve a CR with treatment.

Hes more than 2 years out now without any relapse or any late toxicities, Westin said. Should you switch all patients with a positive interim PET? No. However, if you have circulating tumor DNA or a positive biopsy, its reasonable to consider switching to a different therapy. Having a non-chemotherapy option for chemorefractory disease makes treatment switch more attractive.

Laurie H. Sehn, MD, MPH, a clinical associate professor in the division of medical oncology at the University of British Columbia and the British Columbia Cancer Agency, subsequently presented a case of a 66-year-old man with stage IVB DLBCL with lymphadenopathy above and below the diaphragm. He had a large bowel mass that was biopsied, confirming germinal center B-cell DLBCL and was negative for MYC, BCL2, and BCL6 on fluorescence in situ hybridization.

The patient was treated with 6 cycles of R-CHOP and achieved a CR; however, 6 months later, the patient developed GI bleeding and was found to have recurrent DLBCL of the GI tract. He was started on 2 cycles of R-GDP and achieved a CR, with the intention of heading to ASCT.

Our longstanding management for relapsed/refractory DLBCL has been to take patients down the ASCT route, Sehn stated. However, only approximately half of patients will respond to salvage chemotherapy and proceed to transplant, making the decision on what to pursue a difficult one, Sehn explained.

The 3 randomized trials that have evaluated second-line CAR T-cell therapyZUMA-7 (NCT03391466), TRANSFORM (NCT03575351), and BELINDA (NCT03570892)have yet to show an overall survival (OS) benefit, supporting the rationale to opt for a stepwise approach.

Sehn noted that although all 3 trials demonstrated that CAR T-cell therapy would be the preferred approach in the second-line setting in the intent-to-treat population, they do not provide insight into the preferred approach for patients who respond to salvage chemotherapy.

This is a scenario we all face because most people do receive bridging therapy prior to going on to CAR T-cell therapy, even if your intention is to give it in the second-line setting, Sehn said. As such, we all face this question.

Although not randomized data, Sehn highlighted findings from a Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research retrospective registry analysis which showed that patients in partial remission after salvage chemotherapy had a lower rate of relapse and disease progression (P = .010), as well as improved OS (P = .007).5

Moreover, supplementary findings from the ZUMA-7 trial demonstrated a comparable duration of response among responders, regardless of whether they were randomized to axi-cel or standard of care (HR, 0.763; 95% CI, 0.488-1.108).6

Additionally, Sehn stated that the one-size-fits-all design of the CAR T-cell therapy trials is not likely to hold up in the real world because not everyone will benefit from cellular therapy. Sehn cited data published in Blood Advances showing that predictive factors, including at least 2 extranodal sites, total metabolic tumor volume greater than 80 mL, and elevated LDH, is associated with poor outcomes following CAR T-cell therapy.7

In the CAR T trials, everybody went to CAR T based on an intent-to-treat approach, and even though those arms did better, most patients did relapse or progress subsequently, Sehn said. Just blindly taking everyone on to CAR T is probably not going to be feasible in most clinical settings.

In addition, the short- and long-term toxicities associated with CAR T-cell therapy are worth considering, said Sehn, who highlighted CRS, ICANS, prolonged cytopenias, hypogammaglobulinemia, CD19 loss, and B-cell aplasia in particular, which was present in 34% of patients on the ZUMA-7 trial up to 18 months after infusion.5

For patients who are not candidates to receive CAR T-cell therapy or ASCT, Sehn highlighted the potential of novel agents such as polatuzumab vedotin-piiq (Polivy) plus bendamustine and rituximab (Rituxan) and the combination of tafasitamab-cxix (Monjuvi) and lenalidomide (Revlimid), which have shown responses of 40.2% and 60%, and a median progression-free survival of 5.1 months and 11.6 months, respectively.7,8

For patients with primary refractory or early relapsing DLBCL, the data do argue for CAR T-cell therapy as the preferred potential second-line therapy. However, theres still a role for ASCT; [this approach] still might be suitable for patients who respond to salvage or bridging therapy, Sehn concluded. One of the main things we need to figure out is who shouldnt go to CAR T-cell therapy, as its unlikely to work for patients with fully uncontrollable disease. As far as the novel agents go, there are encouraging data to suggest that these [drugs] will improve outcomes in the refractory setting, although we do need predictive markers to figure out which option to select for which patient.

Part of loving a pet is paying for care when they need it.

Most of us consider our pets to be family, and there are few things worse than not being able to pay for care when those furry (or feathered, or scaly) family members are in need. Here, we lay out some of the ways you can provide for your pet's health care without draining your bank account.

You may find some of these methods a little "out there," but hopefully, one or two will work for you.

This suggestion may sound insultingly simple, but when my husband and I were young, in college, and broke we looked around for places that provided low-cost vaccinations for our dog. Fortunately, a pet store not far from our apartment provided just such a service. We regularly got in line with other pet owners to have a vet look our dog over and give her the vaccinations she was due. We held on to her vaccination record like it was a passport and made sure she stayed up to date. She lived a long, healthy life.

To ensure that's still "a thing," I just did a quick online search. Our local animal shelter provides low-cost spay and neuter services, as well as free rabies vaccines. There's also an organization that provides discounted vaccination packages for pets of all ages. SNAP recipients get an even deeper discount.

Do not be discouraged if you don't find something right away. Expand your search parameter to include the entire county or call your local humane society to ask about programs not listed online.

No one likes going into debt, but if your pet is sick or injured, applying for a line of credit through a company like Scratchpay or CareCredit can help you cover an emergency situation.

Let's say your pet has a serious condition. CoFund My Pet allows you to upload a picture of your pet and explain why they need veterinary care. When people donate, they know that all funds collected through this crowdfunding site can only be spent at veterinary clinics and won't go to another cause.

There's a good chance you have something sitting around your house that you have no more use for. Or, clean out your basement or attic and sell a whole bunch of stuff. Whether you host a virtual garage sale online or an old-school tag sale in your front yard, all those things you no longer need or use are sure to be of use to someone else. And the money can go to vet bills, or into a savings account for future care.

I suspect that the last thing you want to hear right now is, "You ought to have pet insurance," especially if your pet has an immediate need. However, as someone who has had pets with and without insurance, I need you to know how much it can help. Let's say you have a cat you adore. For less than $10 a month you can buy a policy that will help you pay for whatever may go wrong. It won't cover the entire bill but will pay for 70% to 90% of medical care, depending on the policy you choose.

I have two middle-aged dogs and pay less than $52 per month to cover them both ($26 each). You could easily find a less expensive monthly premium, but this policy pays for everything -- from surgery to chemotherapy, all the way to stem cell replacement. If it sounds excessive, it's because I've made a medical decision on behalf of a dog based, in part, on how much treatment was going to cost and I promised myself (and that dog) I would never do it again.

No matter what, if your pet is suffering, don't give up. If you can't find help locally, contact an organization that specializes in this realm. Some examples include:

Veterinary care is expensive. Fortunately, there are a lot of good people in this world willing to help cover the costs.

If you don't currently have a plan in place to pay for pet healthcare, today is the day to decide what you'll do if your pet is sick or injured. Waiting until your pet is in pain will only add to your stress.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a fast-growing type of central nervous system tumour that forms from glial (supportive) tissue of the brain and spinal cord, with cells that look very different from normal ones, said Dr Ata Ul Aleem Bhatti, ex-instructor neurosurgeon, Aga Khan University Medical College, Dar as Salaam, Tanzania, and consultant neurosurgeon at the South City Hospital, Karachi.

Addressing a public awareness seminar on World GBM Day 2022 in collaboration with the Neurospinal & Cancer Care Postgraduate Institute, he said: Like most brain tumors, GBM grow more rapidly than their benign counterparts and affect the brain in many different ways depending on the part of the brain they are located.

Dr Bhatti further explained: Unfortunately, like most cancers in other parts of the body, the exact cause of GBM is unknown. Glioblastoma itself is not the only form of brain cancer, though it is the most common and most aggressive type. Other malignant brain tumours include medulloblastomas, lymphomas and anaplastic astrocytomas, to mention a few.

Various risk factors linked to developing cancer in the brain include over exposure to radiation and some rare inherited conditions. In all of these cases, the exact connection or link remains a mystery, but we do see a pattern of occurrence.

Again, unfortunately, there are no symptoms that will immediately tell someone they are developing a malignant brain tumour, however, there are some common things to look out for, when a person develops a mass or growth in the brain, either benign or malignant. These include a bad headache, but not the type one gets after spending hours in Karachi traffic or a stressful day. This headache is usually worse in the morning and persistent over several weeks. It may be associated with a feeling of wanting to vomit (nausea) or actually vomiting, which tends to make the person feel better.

Unfortunately, according to Dr Bhatti, at the moment there is no cure for brain cancers. While there are many therapies that are being tried and a lot of experimental work going on, we are yet to find a cure.

Malignant brain tumours are usually treated with a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Sometimes, newer options like hormone therapy, immune therapy and others are also used. Which option is offered depends on the type of cancer involved. Surgery remains a main part of any treatment regime for GBM, since it allows for accurate diagnosis and also reduces the amount of tumour the body has to fight against.

In some cases, an attempt is made to remove as much of the tumour as possible to allow the radiotherapy and chemotherapy be more effective.

Dr Adeel Ahmed Memon, consultant clinical & radiation oncologist and assistant professor at the Karachi Institute of Radiotherapy & Nuclear Medicine (KIRAN), gave a radiation oncologist perspective for GBM.

Radiosurgery is a treatment method that uses specialized radiation delivery systems to focus radiation at the site of the tumor, while minimizing the radiation dose to the surrounding brain. Radiosurgery may be used in selective cases for tumor recurrence, often using additional information derived from MRS or PET scans, he said.

Studies have shown that radiation therapy provides most patients with improved outcomes and longer survival rates when given the combination of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy compared with surgery alone. Radiation also may be used as the sole treatment when a glioblastoma tumor is in an area that is not appropriate for surgery.

Guest speaker Dr Reena Kumari, consultant medical oncologist & assistant professor at Dr Ziauddin University Hospital, also shared her views regarding the role of chemotherapy, targeted & immunotherapy and discussed why GBM was difficult to treat brain tumor.

When treating GBM, she explained, what makes treatment challenging is that you have tumor cells that are not active, meaning they are dormant. These cells are known as cancer stem cells and since they are not active they do not die by radiation and chemotherapy.

Unlike other cancers such as breast or lung, brain tumors are extremely genetically heterogeneous means there is a high degree of variation within the same tumor cells that makes each individual glioblastoma molecularly distinct. This can be challenging when predicting prognosis and treatment, if it is in an area which is difficult access, or too close to major blood vessels or other important centers of the brain, it can make surgery tough, tendency of the tumor to come back aggressively is also a great challenge.

A promising targeted treatment is the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monoclonal antibody bevacizumab. It has been approved by FDA for several different types of cancer, including. Angiogenesis is a key survival feature of many cancers as tumors rely on nutrients from the vasculature to proliferate

A clinical trial has found that selinexor, the first of a new class of anti-cancer drugs called selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE) , is able to shrink tumors in almost a third of patients with recurrent glioblastoma,

Dr Kumari urged people to be careful, saying: Negligence in treatment of diseases like GBM can be fatal. She further said that timely treatment of brain tumor was very important as chances of relapsing increases with the grade of tumor.

Dr Sadia Afsar, in-Charge, Neurosurgery Department, Abbasi Shaheed Hospital , highlighted the problems faced by patients with GBM and other brain tumors as this is ignored by community.

Government needs to realise that these conditions are quite common and provide more facilities for early diagnosis and treatment of GBM & other types of brain tumors like MRI, CT-Scan & PET-CT Scanner must be readily available across the country to enhance diagnosis.

The scarcity of Radiotherapy modalities in the country has already been highlighted by her and said that a huge time is wasted in long queue, additionally. The teaching hospitals need to also be equipped to perform proper neurosurgery department and OT, as this is the first step in any treatment programme for brain tumors, including GMBs.

Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Transparency Market Research Inc.: Stem cells are bodys raw materials or cells from which all other cells with specialized functions are generated. These cells can be guided to become specific cells that regenerate and repair diseased or damaged tissues in patients suffering from various diseases.

Read Report Overview - https://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/stem-cell-and-regenerative-therapy-market.html

This stem cell therapy is called regenerative medicine or regenerative therapy to treat several diseases. Stem cell and regenerative therapy promotes the repair response of diseased, injured, or dysfunctional tissue using stem cells or derivatives of stem cells.

Stem cell therapies can be used to treat patients with Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, diabetes type 1, Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, stroke, burns, cancer, and osteoarthritis

In advanced therapies, stem cells are used to replace damaged cells and serve as a replacement method for the donor's immune system to fight several types of blood-related diseases and cancer
