Two recent studies by researchers from Regenstrief Institute and the Indiana University School of Medicine explore the effect of the pandemic on colorectal cancer screening tests and diagnostic colonoscopies in central Indiana.
FDA approved cabozantinib (Cabometyx) for adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with previously treated, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic, well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and well-differentiated extra-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
FDA approved Gozellix (TLX007-CDx, kit for the preparation of gallium-68 (68Ga) gozetotide injection), a next-generation PSMA-PET imaging agent for prostate cancer.
FDA granted traditional approval to Merck’s pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with trastuzumab, fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of adults with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1 (CPS ≥1).
UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers developed a “self-driving” microscope that solves two challenges that have long plagued microscopy: 1) imaging living cells or organisms at dramatically different scales, and 2) following a specific structure or area of interest over long periods of time.
