Description:
Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
Advancing Therapies for Children and Adults with Rare Tumors or Genetic Tumor Predisposition Syndromes.

This is the annual G. Burroughs Mider Lecture, established in 1968 in honor of Dr. Mider, the first NIH director of laboratories and clinics, and presented by an NIH intramural scientist to recognize outstanding contributions to biomedical research.

Dr. Widemann is Deputy Director for the NCI Center for Cancer Research, chief of its Pediatric Oncology Branch, and head of the Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics Section. Trained as a pediatric oncologist with expertise in drug development, she has applied her expertise to study genetic tumor predisposition syndromes, in particular neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and very rare pediatric and adult solid tumors.

Dr. Widemann will define rare tumors and genetic tumor predisposition syndromes and their unmet medical need. This will be followed by approaches taken in the NIH intramural research program, which provides unique resources to study rare tumors. She will highlight this in examples of NF1, RASopathies, and other rare tumors in children and adults. In addition to providing examples of advances, Dr. Widemann will highlight remaining challenges and future directions. Throughout the talk, she will provide examples how teamwork and collaboration is critical to advance the development of effective therapies for rare tumors.

Myelodysplastic Syndrome- Not Just Preleukemia
Myelodysplastic Syndrome- Not Just Preleukemia administrator 14 Visninger • 2 flere år siden

Early this summer television anchor Robin Roberts made a tearful announcement.

"As many of you know, five years ago I beat breast cancer. Now sometimes treatment for cancer can lead to other serious medical issues and that's what I'm facing right now. It is something called MDS- Myelodysplastic Syndrome," says Robin Roberts.
That's when she put a face to myelodysplastic syndrome. MDS is a collection of blood disorders most people have never heard of.

"Myelodysplastic Syndrome is kind of under the radar because in some ways it's a malignancy but it's really a disorder of the bone marrow that causes a failure to produce the normal cells in the bone marrow. The older term is pre-leukemia because some, but not all, patients over time will evolve into an acute leukemia," says Dr. William Harwin, oncologist on Lee Memorial Health System's medical staff.

Not quite a cancer itself, it has shares many characteristics.

"An uncontrolled proliferation, which cells don't have the normal stops and normal controls and it's also at the same time a capacity to spread to the parts of the body where they normally don't belong," says Dr. Harwin.

Question is, what causes the breakdown of blood production. Scientists determined the disease can stem from previous cancer treatment. That's what Roberts believes happened to her.

"Most of the time we really don't know why. There's some situations where this can actually be a consequence or a late manifestation in someone who had chemotherapy several years before. It can be related to radiation in rare situations," says Dr. Harwin.

The only cure for MDS is a bone marrow transplant; the route Roberts took. Far more people will manage it as a chronic condition. Despite it's reputation as pre-leukemia, only 30% of cases will make that evolution.

The inspiring story of the Woman behind KnittedKnockers.org. Her path from tragedy to triumph... to her vision of providing breast cancer survivors in her community and around the world with free Knitted Knockers.

For years this hand crafted, soft, and light weight alternative to a traditional breast prosthetic was only known about by a select few. After several dead-ends trying to find out more about them, how to make them, and how to use them... Barbara made it her mission to create a website that combined all the best research and resources on the topic. That mission has grown to a vision of sharing the Knitted Knocker idea with volunteer knitters, breast cancer survivors, and the medical professionals who treat them. Her dream is to spread the model of regional groups of kindhearted knitters sharing their time and talent to hand craft these beautiful works of art as free gifts of inspiration and compassion for breast cancer survivors everywhere.
