AI Predicts Cancer Spreading To Brain from Lung Biopsy Images

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, with non-small cell lung cancers making up the majority of cases, which are often linked to smoking. When detected early, these cancers are usually confined to the lung, making surgery the preferred initial treatment. However, about 30% of these early-stage patients see their cancer advance to more critical areas, like the lymph nodes and organs, frequently affecting the brain first. This progression necessitates additional treatments such as chemotherapy, targeted drugs, radiation, or immunotherapy. Unfortunately, despite 70% of patients not developing brain metastasis, doctors have lacked the means to predict whose cancer will progress and often opt for aggressive treatments as a precautionary measure. Now, a new study offers hope in improving the approach to treating early-stage lung cancer by achieving the correct balance between proactive intervention and cautious monitoring. In the study, scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in ...

FDA Approves Idorsia’s Tryvio for Once-Daily Treatment of Difficult-to-Control Hypertension

Davy James Tryvio (aprocitentan) approved in combination with other antihypertensive drugs to lower hypertension in adults whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled by other therapies. The FDA has approved Idorsia Ltd’s Tryvio (aprocitentan) to reduce hypertension in combination with other antihypertensive drugs in adults whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled by other therapies. Tryvio is an endothelin receptor antagonist that interferes with the binding of endothelin (ET)-1 to ETA and ETB receptors.1 “Today, there are millions of Americans whose blood pressure is not well-controlled despite existing therapies. This is a major public health issue leading to a high incidence of cardio- and cerebrovascular events,” Jean-Paul Clozel, MD, CEO of Idorsia said in a press release. “In order to help address this issue, Idorsia developed aprocitentan, an endothelin receptor antagonist suited to the treatment of these patients. Idorsia conducted an ambitious clinical program in patients remaining hypertensive despite a ...

Blood Test Identifies Individuals at Highest Risk of Dying From Heart Failure

Heart failure is a serious condition where the heart is unable to pump blood effectively throughout the body, leading to frequent hospital stays and a decline in quality of life. A protein known as neuropeptide Y (NPY) is produced by nerves in the heart under severe stress. NPY can cause dangerous heart rhythms and narrow the heart’s smallest blood vessels, forcing the heart to work harder and narrowing the arteries that supply blood to the heart. Now, a new study has found that measuring NPY levels could predict the progression of heart failure, paving the way for a blood test to assist in managing heart failure treatment within the next five years. The collaborative study by researchers at the University of Oxford (Oxford, UK) and University of Glasgow (Scotland, UK) found that patients with the highest NPY levels had a 50% greater chance of dying from heart complications within three ...

NHS to roll out AI to improve waiting times and reduce missed appointments

Every year, missed hospital appointments are estimated to cost the NHS £1.2bn The NHS has announced that it’s set to roll out artificial intelligence (AI) to help improve waiting times for elective care and reduce the number of missed appointments. New data has shown that 6.4% of over 125 million outpatient appointments across the NHS in England last year were not attended by the patient, specifically for physiotherapy, cardiology, ophthalmology, trauma and orthopaedics. Additionally, missed appointments are predicted to cost the NHS a total of £1.2bn, annually. Created by Deep Medical, the AI software uses algorithms and anonymised data to predict missed appointments and uses a range of external insights as to why, such as the weather, traffic, jobs and back-up bookings. Piloted for the last six months at Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, the software will expand to ten more NHS trusts following the success of the ...

Schizophrenia Trial Failure Ends Acadia’s Efforts to Expand Use of Its Flagship Drug

With pimavanserin’s Phase 3 failure in schizophrenia, Acadia Pharmaceuticals said it will no longer run clinical trials for the drug, whose lone approval is for treating psychosis from Parkinson’s disease. The FDA previously rebuffed regulatory submissions for the drug in dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. By FRANK VINLUAN An Acadia Pharmaceuticals drug that’s already approved for treating psychosis in Parkinson’s disease patients could not beat a placebo in a pivotal schizophrenia study, spelling the end of efforts to develop a medication the company once envisioned as having potential applications across a range of neurological disorders. The clinical trial failure announced Tuesday evaluated the drug, pimavanserin, as a treatment for negative symptoms of schizophrenia. The main goal was to show a change in score according to an assessment used to measure the disease’s symptoms. According to the preliminary results, the pimavanserin arm achieved a numerical change in score that was similar to ...

Swedish researchers develop new AI computer model to detect lymphatic cancer

In the study, the Lymphoma Artificial Reader System accurately detected 90% of lymphatic cancersResearchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a new computer model using artificial intelligence (AI), which successfully identifies signs of lymphatic cancer. The model was developed in collaboration with researchers from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Chalmers University of Technology, Medical University in Vienna, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and NYU Langone Health, with results published in The Lancet Digital Health. Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, including the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus gland and bone marrow, and can affect other organs throughout the body. The two main subtypes of lymphoma are Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which is the sixth most common cancer in the UK, responsible for around 14,200 cases every year, according to Cancer Research UK. Using AI-assisted image analysis of lymphoma, researchers developed a deep learning ...
