Prostate cancer displaying cells w/histologically visible neuroendocrine granules (so-called 'Paneth cell-like', though lack lysozyme & +NE markers unlike GI cells) - important to differentiate from small cell/high-grade NE carcinoma - can be seen in any grade of PCa

We are recruiting a postdoc to work on an NIH funded project to determine the role of aging and oncogene-induced stromal senescence on prostate cancer initiation and therapy resistance. See job posting and recent publication below. ummsjobs.com/job/11591/ aacrjournals.org/cancerdisco…

Presented at #ASCO26: Among patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib led to significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy. Full phase 3 RASolute 302 trial results: nej.md/4nWaxvM @ASCO

Absolutely practice changing!! One of the most stunning developments in the treatment of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer !! It is one of the rare moments in oncology which you will always remember ! Like the imatinib, trastuzumab presentations @ASCO #ASCO26 @OncoAlert

Cancer survival in the U.S. just crossed 70%. It was 63% in the 1990s. That gap = 4.8M people alive today. This one chart captures survival gains across 29 cancer types. The wins are real. So is the unfinished work. ▪️CML: 31% → 72% ▪️Multiple myeloma: 32% → 62% ▫️Kidney: 59% → 82% ▫️Metastatic melanoma: 16% → 35% ▫️Childhood ALL: 80% → 92% But some cancers barely moved. Cervical cancer outcomes actually worsened. None of this is abstract progress, though. These are birthdays, grandkids, and years of life returned. This is what funded science does. Next time someone asks if cancer research works, show them this (full) chart. - - - - - Source: ACS Cancer Statistics 2026 · SEER · 𝘷𝘪𝘢 @Jori_health - - - - -

NIH is proudly prioritizing drug repurposing as a way to accelerate research while using resources efficiently. Watch for some outstanding examples of how we’ve applied gold standard science to find new ways existing therapies can benefit more patients now:

Emergence of BRCA Reversion Mutations in Prostate Cancer Prior to PARP Inhibitor Exposure: Clinical and Therapeutic Implications onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… BRCA1/2🧬 reversion mutations, which restore BRCA function and confer PARP inhibitor resistance, were identified in advanced #ProstateCancer both after and without prior PARP inhibitor exposure. In this retrospective liquid biopsy study, 30% of PARP-naïve patients with BRCA reversions had received chemotherapy and radiation, suggesting DNA-damaging therapies may promote reversion and primary resistance, supporting earlier PARP inhibitor use. @DougLinMD @MaxMaomaoYe @OGjoerup @RyonGraf @RichardHuangMD @DouglasMab3lt @DrRanaMcKay @OncoAlert 🚨 @silkegillessen @AOmlin @weoncologists
