    Wow - cancer patients who took certain anti-histamine medications because of allergies responded better to immunotherapy. Turns out histamine binds to macrophage receptors, makes macrophages immunosuppressive, thus inducing T cell dysfunction cell.com/cancer-cell/fu…

    This 2018 study found that 80% of the “most transformative” medicines approved for clinical use by the FDA could be traced back to one or several basic discoveries, which occurred on average three decades before approval! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

    Very impressive evidence that a 5-day fasting-mimicking diet (low-carb, low-protein) visibly enhances antitumor immunity in the periphery & tumor itself, and decreases pro-tumorigenic signals in cancer patients! cancerdiscovery.aacrjournals.org/content/early/…

    Thank you @US_FDA for issuing draft guidelines for use of ctDNA in drug development for solid tumors in the early stage, non-metastatic setting. Will likely become standard for rapid patient selection and treatment response assessment fda.gov/regulatory-inf…
