2020 MLB Season: The extra-inning rule isnt so bad after all by Sean Basile

When Raymond Figueredo decided to leave Cuba he was one of the hardest throwers in the Serie Nacional, the 20-year olds heater hovered around 95 to 97 mph.

The righty was a rising star in the 2019 Sub 23 tournament for La Habana. During the season he posted an ERA of 1.13 and hitters hit a paltry .170 against him, Figueredo was even included in the list of 34 prospects handed over to MLB by the Cuban Federation. Yet for some reason he was left of Industriales roster, an elbow injury I suspect had something to do with the exclusion even though he was said to be recovered after having stem cell treatment.

Today the young hurler is training in the Dominican Republic in search of a contract with an MLB club and with his electric repertoire that might just be on the horizon.

You have a blazing fastball in your repertoire, what other pitches have you incorporated in your arsenal since leaving Cuba?

I left Cuba with only a fastball, but since coming to the DR Ive added a slider and changeup to diversify my pitches and keep the hitters off-balance.

How have you stayed in shape during the pandemic?

Basically doing exercises at home and a lot of running. Im also playing at a baseball field near my house every weekend so I dont get out of baseball shape.

Did the collapse of the accord between Cuba and MLB influence your decision to leave the island?

It influenced me a bit, but I really just wanted to play in the best baseball in the world. That without a doubt was the biggest reason why I decided to leave Cuba.

Have you had any private workouts for any big league ball clubs?

No, as of right now I have only done showcases for a multitude of teams and scouts as a collective.

Do you have any more showcases planned?

In the near future when everything settles down I have the most important showcases of my life planned. My performance in these showcases will make or break my future.

Will you be playing any winter ball this off-season?

As of right now no, but if I receive an offer I will definitely entertain the thought. Playing winter ball will definitely keep me in baseball shape.

What pitchers do you admire?

Well in Cuba Im an avid fan of Freddy Aisel lvarez of Villa Clara, but my favorite pitcher to watch is Jacob deGrom.

Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration Approves the First Phase I Trial of ATG-017 for the Treatment of Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors and…

SHANGHAI and MELBOURNE, Australia, Aug.12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Antengene Corporation, a leading innovative hematology and oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company, announced today the authorization of the first-in-human trial of ATG-017 (ERASER trial) by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). ATG-017 is a potent and selective small molecule extracellular signalregulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor. The study will enroll patients with advanced solid tumors and hematological malignancies. Today's milestone marks the first TGA trial authorization for Antengene and is the first clinical trial for ATG-017 globally.

ATG-017 is an oral, potent and highly selective inhibitor of ERK1/2, which are related protein-serine/ threonine kinases that function as the terminal kinases in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signal transduction cascade. This pathway participates in the control of numerous processes which include apoptosis, cell proliferation, and cellular immune response. In preclinical studies, ATG-017 has proven to regulate a large variety of cellular processes by targeting ERK1/2 and has shown to be effective in inhibiting the viability of tumor cell lines in vitro as well as the tumor growth in vivo.

"This first human trial for ATG-017 in Australia is a significant step for our company's global clinical strategy and we will initiate overseas trials continuously for a number of novel drugs in our pipeline in the near future," said Dr. Jay Mei, M.D., Ph.D., Founder, Chairman and CEO of Antengene. "Our vision is to treat patients beyond borders. For Australian patients with life-threatening diseases and patients around the world, we are passionately working to continue to develop and commercialize more novel therapies to make a difference in patient lives."

"Aberrations in the MAPK pathway are amongst the most common in malignant cancer, so developing effective drugs targeting this pathway remains a high priority. We are excited to begin this trial with the ERK-targeting agent ATG-017, and bring together our group of highly experienced Australian investigators and sites to begin this collaboration with Antengene," said Associate Professor Jayesh Desai, Head of the Phase I/ Early Drug Development Program at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.

"The RAS-MAPK pathway is a major player in a range of largely incurable hematological malignancies, so the potential to effectively target it with ATG-017 represents an exciting opportunity for Australian cancer patients. We very much look forward to collaborating with Antengene on this new trial," said Professor Andrew Spencer, Head of the Malignant Haematology and Stem Cell Transplantation Service at the Alfred Hospital, Melbourne.

In November 2019, Antengene entered into a licensing agreement with AstraZeneca (LSE/STO/NYSE: AZN) under which Antengene has been granted the exclusive global rights to further develop, manufacture and commercialize AZD0364 (ATG-017).ATG-017 is currently being studied in clinical trials for the treatment of various solid tumors and hematological malignancies.

About ATG-017

ATG-017 is a potent and selective small molecule extracellular signalregulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of various solid tumors, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and multiple myeloma.

Drug development for severe respiratory diseases supported with $3.9 million grant – Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis

Visit the News Hub

New drug candidate targets asthma, COPD, other progressive lung diseases

Shown is a section of mouse lung with progressive lung disease, similar to asthma or COPD. The red staining shows excess mucus production that is characteristic of progressive lung disease and can occur in the aftermath of viral infection or other injury to the lungs. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have received a grant to develop a drug to block this process, potentially leading to a new treatment for debilitating lung disorders.

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have received a $3.9 million development award supporting new technologies and therapeutics to advance a first-in-class drug to treat debilitating lung diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The research, funded by the Department of Defense, is led by Michael J. Holtzman, MD, the Selma and Herman Seldin Professor of Medicine and director of the Division of Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine at Washington University.

Holtzmans team has designed a new drug candidate that blocks two important signaling systems in the lungs. These systems cause cells of the respiratory tract to become mucus-producing cells. An overabundance of these cells creates too much mucus, which can block breathing. Evidence suggests that the drug could stop and perhaps even reverse progressive damage from overproduction of mucus that is triggered by aggravations to the lung, including from respiratory viruses, smoking and air pollution.

Obstructive lung diseases, such as asthma and COPD, are the third leading cause of death due to disease in the United States, Holtzman said. But we have no effective treatments that address the root causes of these illnesses or halt disease progression. We can only try to relieve symptoms. This grant will allow us to continue research into a new drug candidate that our group developed and that has shown evidence of stopping and correcting what goes wrong in the lungs when this type of disease process is triggered.

In past research, Holtzman and his colleagues identified specialized stem cells in the lungs that give rise to mucus cells. During development, such stem cells are responsible for growing the lung itself. Some of these stem cells remain in the lungs into adulthood and periodically make new cells to line the inner surfaces of lung tissue, including those cells that make mucus. These stem cells also respond to injury to the lung such as a burn injury from inhaling smoke or a severe viral infection and orchestrate the repair process.

Shown is a section of healthy mouse lung.

We need a certain level of mucus to protect the lungs from viruses or particles that can be inhaled, Holtzman said. The stem cell population is important in maintaining normal lung function and in injury situations, where they help with the healing process. But, unfortunately, in some people these cells can go off the rails. Under certain conditions, particularly a severe respiratory viral infection, these stem cells become reprogrammed so that theyre activated even after the injury or infection is resolved. This leads to overproduction of mucus and excessive inflammation that can interfere with lung function with airway obstruction and difficulty breathing.

The new drug candidate is being designed to be taken by mouth or inhalation and to specifically target two related but distinct signaling molecules known as MAP kinases to control both arms of the immune and inflammatory response. Studying human cells, as well as mouse and pig models of respiratory disease following respiratory viral infections, the researchers found that not only does the drug reduce mucus production, it also nudges the rogue stem cells back toward their quieter and healthier state of readiness. The new grant will support studies in human cells, mice and pigs to establish evidence for the safety and effectiveness of the lead drug candidate and to help determine proper doses for subsequent studies in people. The safety work also will be facilitated by a subcontract to the teams biotechnology company known as NuPeak Therapeutics, which is specially designed for this drug development activity. The goal is to gather data to support approval for a first-in-human clinical trial.

Holtzman said the drug does not treat the viral infection itself; rather, it stops what he calls post-viral disease and its progression, which includes asthma and COPD. Post-viral lung disease also could include COVID-19, as an example of another severe respiratory viral infection that causes progressive and in some cases long-term lung disease in some patients well after the infectious virus has been cleared.

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is similar to the viruses Holtzman and colleagues are working with to study their new drug candidate. The group is gathering key information in patient and animal models to determine whether the same therapeutic strategy could prove useful in treating COVID-19 as it has been for lung disease due to other related respiratory viruses.

Were just beginning to learn how the body responds to SARS-CoV-2, but it is very common for any respiratory viral infection, especially severe infections, to trigger this progressive disease process in some percentage of the patients who contract the virus, Holtzman said. Whats interesting is that the infectious form of the virus is gone when this process ramps up. Patients arent fighting the virus any more, theyre fighting their own immune system. In future work, we will be interested in finding out whether our drug candidate can help shut this process down regardless of the trigger, viral or otherwise.

This work is supported by the Department of Defense, grant number PR190726. Holtzman founded the biotechnology company NuPeak Therapeutics, which is facilitating development of the drug candidate.

Washington University School of Medicines 1,500 faculty physicians also are the medical staff of Barnes-Jewish and St. Louis Childrens hospitals. The School of Medicine is a leader in medical research, teaching and patient care, ranking among the top 10 medical schools in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.

Joliet cancer patient celebrated his 2nd birthday at home after all – The Herald-News

Owen Buell of Joliet spent his second birthday with his family after all.

In a Facebook message late Monday night, his great-grandmother Jackie Moore of Florida said Owens oncologist wound up giving Owen a day pass."'

Owen was supposed to be discharged from the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Childrens Hospital of Chicago on Monday but that was delayed due to the riots, Moore said.

He got his little party right before the storm blew through, Moore said. Better late than never.

Owen returned to the hospital on Tuesday morning where he was officially discharged. Moore said.

In February, Owen was diagnosed with a neuroblastoma, a type of cancer most commonly found in children age 5 or younger.

Before the cancer was diagnosed, Owen had stopped eating and drinking and began screaming and crying inconsolably.

His right eye looked bruised and was drooping; his abdomen had swollen to nearly double in size.

Since then, Owen's had chemotherapy and the first of two stem cell transplants.

He's also had a feeding tube, numerous ports, bone marrow tests, stem cell extractions, major abdominal surgery, according to The Help for Baby Owen Buell and his Family Facebook page, which Moore moderates.

"Throughout all of these frightening medical treatments, he has smiled and wanted to give loves to everyone," his GoFundMe page said.

Owen had spent the last week or so at a Ronald McDonald House in Chicago so he could be near the hospital, Moore said.

"I was so happy at how good they took care of him there," Moore said of Ronald McDonald House.

Although Moore was not able to fly to Illinois for Owen's birthday celebration, she did ship a 3-foot-tall stuffed llama to Owens home to because Owen really likes llamas, she said.

He had some really nice gifts, including the llama, but he was most interested in a bottle of bubbles from the dollar store, Moore wrote. Go figure.

In a few weeks, Owen will resume his cancer treatments in preparation for a second stem cell transplant, Moore said.

The goal of the transplant is to make his bones more receptive to the chemo and possibly have him go into remission, according to the Help for Baby Owen Buell and his Family Facebook page.

The medical bills for Owen's care are now over $1 million, according to the

"Help for baby Owen Buell and his Family"GoFundMe page at bit.ly/2S7sPN7.

Lung cancer mortality reduction linked to improvements in targeted therapies – 2 Minute Medicine

1. In this retrospective cohort study, there was an observed decrease in mortality in non-small-cell lung cancer patients that corresponded with the approval of targeted therapies

2. The improved mortality of small cell lung cancer was not driven by treatment advancement but rather a decrease in the incidence

Evidence Rating Level: 2 (Good)

Study Rundown: Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer in the United States. It can be divided into two histological subtypes: non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Using the U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, the authors in this study analyzed mortality trends attributed to the specific histological subtype of lung cancer termed incidence-based mortality. For men and women with NSCLC, incidence and incidence-based mortality decreased, with a greater mortality decrease from 2013-2016 corresponding with an improvement in survival from diagnosis. For SCLC, incidence and incidence-based mortality decreased but with no improvement in survival from diagnosis. Notably, the authors point out that EGFR targeted therapies were approved in 2013 which corresponds to the increase in survival in NSCLC. There should be caution in the interpretation in the studys suggestion that the survival benefit is entirely driven by targeted therapies as there is no direct data on the number of patients treated with EGFR targeted therapies right after 2013. However, the results of these study are generalizable given that it encompassed diverse demographics which showed consistent trends across race and gender subgroups and adequate follow-up data.

Click here to read the study, published today in NEJM

Relevant Reading: Updated statistics of lung and bronchus cancer in United States (2018)

In-Depth [retrospective cohort]: In this retrospective cohort study, lung cancer incidence and lung cancer linked deaths were analyzed in the SEER cancer registry from 2001 to 2016. For NSCLC, in men, the annual incidence decreased by 1.9% from 2001 to 2008, and then by 3.1% from 2008 to 2016. Incidence-based mortality decreased by 3.2% annually from 2006 to 2013 and then decreased by 6.3% from 2013 to 2016. Among women, 2001-2006 incidence did not change significantly, while from 2006-2013 incidence decreased by 1.5% annually. Incidence-based mortality decreased by 2.3% from 2006 to 2014, and then by 5.9% from 2014-2016. 2-year survival improved from 35% in 2001 to 44% in 2014 for women and went from 25% to 35% for men. For SCLC from 2001-2016, in men, the incidence decreased by 3.6%, while incidence-based mortality decreased by 4.3%. For women, the incidence decreased by 2.7% and incidence-based mortality decreased by 3.7%. 2-year survival from 2001 vs. 2016 was 12% and 11% for men and 14% and 17% for women. Taken together, these results indicated that mortality decreases in NSCLC were likely driven by improved survival, and for SCLC, it was mainly driven by decreased incidence.
