Knee replacement made from own cells allows Franklin firefighter to get back to work – Boston Herald

Posted: December 21, 2019 at 7:48 pm

Mike Berthiaume, 31, a Franklin firefighter, was transferring a patient at the hospital when he suddenly felt pain in his knee.

The injury would cause him to miss work, his one true passion, for the next year.

I basically just twisted my knee the wrong way, it was like a compression and twisting injury, and from there it just escalated, said Berthiaume.

He was injured in March 2018 and quickly learned he would need surgery, which would take him out of his beloved job as a firefighter for a year.

I enjoy working, so I think that was the hardest part, it was looking at the rehab being a year-plus, it was hard, said Berthiaume. I had one thought in my mind to get better.

Berthiaumes surgeon, Dr. Kai Mithoefer of Boston Sports and Shoulder, recommended an innovative treatment called MACI that uses a patients own cells to repair knee cartilage damage instead of using traditional metal or plastic devices.

With little hesitation, Berthiaume agreed and a sample of his cartilage cells was sent off to the MACI lab in Cambridge, the only lab in the country that manufactures and produces the MACI product by embedding cells on a special collagen membrane, which is implanted into the knee.

Mithoefer said Berthiaumes injury was large and severe, making him a good candidate for the technology. For larger defects that are not involving the bone underneath MACI, I think, is the perfect technology because it has really good outcomes.

Inside the ultra-controlled, sealed and pressurized MACI lab, workers in full white medical gowns complete the meticulous process of growing cells to produce the final product that is shipped back to surgeons.

The MACI lab is extremely clean, but not sterile, as it would kill the cells. The full process of creating MACI, whose full name is autologous cultured chondrocytes on porcine collagen membrane, takes about four to six weeks.

Chris Parrish, vice president of manufacturing at Vericel Corporation, which markets MACI, said, Its kind of like a two-part process receive the biopsy, grow your cells and freeze them down, receive your order, and the second part of the process becomes thaw some cells and now, performing intuitive process to produce MACI.

The final product is placed on a membrane so that the new, repaired cells will bind when transported into the patients knee.

Jon Hopper, chief medical officer at Vericel, said patients essentially have a natural cartilage surface over where the defect is and thats very helpful in terms of normal function for everyday people.

The MACI lab sees thousands of cases a year for its customized cell therapy that provides long-lasting pain relief and improved function for patients.

Berthiuame got MACI treatment in November of last year and returned to work just last month with little to no pain after rigorous rehabilitation and physical therapy.

Mithoefer said Berthiuame hit all the milestones perfectly, adding, He was motivated, I think he likes his job a lot, I think he was pretty motivated to go back and that kept him on track.

The Most Significant Cancer Research Advances of the 2010s – Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Posted: December 21, 2019 at 7:48 pm

It was a decade that began with the electrifying results of a clinical trial for a revolutionary new cancer therapy and ended with a Nobel Prize in Medicine for very different cancer-related research. In between those dramatic bookends, the 2010s were packed with progress, with discoveries leading to the FDAs 2017 approval of the first CAR T-cell therapy. Additional approvals would follow.

The 2010s started with clinical trial results centered on the use of checkpoint inhibitors, drugs that unleash a powerful immune system attack on cancer cells. The results founded on decades of research by scientists like Dana-Farbers Gordon Freeman, PhD helped usher in a new era of cancer immunotherapy.

Checkpoint blockersare transformational, Laurie H. Glimcher, MD, president and CEO of Dana-Farber and a prominent immunologist, said back in 2017, but they are only the tip of a proverbial immunotherapy iceberg.

On the other side of the last 10 years in cancer research was the Nobel Prize in Medicine, shared by Dana-Farbers William G. Kaelin, Jr., MD, for discoveries into the mechanism that enables cells to sense and adapt to changes in oxygen abundance research that has already led to exciting new treatments for cardiovascular disease and cancer.

As cancer research pioneer and Dana-Farber founder Sidney Farber, MD, said back in 1965, I have never accepted the incurability of cancer. And I have remained hopeful, not because of wishful thinking thats not progress but because of the factual evidence of progress. There is no such thing as a hopeless case.

Aside from these prominent discoveries, what were the most significant advances in cancer research and treatment? Heres what scientists and clinicians from around Dana-Farber said.

William Hahn, MD, PhD, Chief Research Strategy Officer

The sequencing of human cancer genomes over the past decade has demystified the genetics of cancer. We now have a blueprint of cancer genes in every type of cancer and information about the frequency and type of mutations that occur. This has revealed new genes and pathways important for cancer development and in some cases has already led to new approved cancer therapies.

In addition, geneticallysequencing tumor tissue samples guides the therapeutic agents selected for asubset of cancer patients. This tailored approach, termed precision medicine,selects patients most likely to respond and spares those that are unlikely torespond from untoward side effects. Recent discoveries that its possible tosequence DNA in the blood to detect cancers provide hope that this approach canbe used to identify cancers earlier and follow the response to therapy.

Through the study of rare cancers, we have identified mutations in genes that regulate the epigenome, the cells machinery for activating and deactivating genes. These studies have revealed that these same pathways are dysregulated in many common cancers and play key roles in cancer pathogenesis and resistance to therapy.

Sapna Syngal, MD, MPH, Director of Research, Center for Cancer Genetics and Prevention

The realization that upto 10% of many solid tumors have an inherited genetic basis provides us with agreat opportunity for precision prevention and early interception.

Scott Armstrong, MD, PhD, President, Dana-Farber/Boston Childrens Cancer and Blood Disorders Center

Were now able to identify several premalignant states that significantly increase peoples risk of developing certain hematologic cancers. Individuals with clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), for example, have certain genetic mutations in their blood-forming stem cells that are associated with leukemia.

People with CHIP dont have symptoms of disease, but their risk of developing a blood cancer such as leukemia is 10 times higher than average and their risk of cardiovascular disease is elevated as well. Being able to identify high-risk individuals means we can begin to think about early-intervention strategies to prevent these cancers from developing an active area of research.

Ursula Matulonis, MD, Chief, Division of Gynecologic Oncology

The introduction of drugs known as PARP inhibitors has had a major impact on the treatment of ovarian cancer, and now they are showing effectiveness against other cancers including breast and pancreatic. PARP inhibitors work by blocking one of the key routes by which cells repair damaged DNA and are especially effective in cancers with existing DNA-repair deficiencies such as those harboring BRCA mutations.

Also, better understanding of the genomics of gynecologic cancers the set of genetic mutations within the cancer cells is transforming the way we approach treatment and prevention. Its now widely recognized that women with ovarian cancer, regardless of age, histology type, or the stage at which their cancer is diagnosed, should undergo genetic testing. A percentage of them will have a predisposing mutation in one of the BRCA genes. Women with newly diagnosed endometrial cancer should have their cancer tested for mismatch repair deficiencies, which interfere with the proper copying of DNA during cell division.

The presence of these genetic features not only influences the treatment patients receive, but, because they can be inherited, often enable us to identify family members who are also at risk and can benefit from more intensive monitoring or preventive treatment.

Richard Stone, MD, Program Director in Adult Leukemia

Morethan 10 drugs have been approved for acute leukemia in the past three years,whereas there had been very few new agents in the previous 25 years.

DNA sequencing of patients leukemia cells to identify mutations is being used to help guide treatment decisions.

Eric Winer, MD, Senior Vice President for Medical Affairs and Faculty Development; Chief, Division of Breast Oncology

In the treatment of breast cancer, we now know for a certainty that one size does not fit all. This allows us to personalize therapy to a much greater extent than ever before. In some patients, this means we can treat them with less-intensive therapy and still obtain excellent results. Others may require more extensive therapy or benefit from a different therapeutic approach. For all patients, this means better, more effective care, fewer side effects, and, for many, a longer life.

Kimberly Stegmaier, MD, Vice Chair of Pediatric Oncology Research

There have been multiple approvals of new targeted drugs in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the past two years, as well as TRK inhibitor approval for adult and pediatric patients with TRK fusion-positive cancers.

Bruce Johnson, MD, Chief Clinical Research Officer

Addingthe kinase inhibitor midostaurin to standard chemotherapy significantlyprolonged overall and event-free survival in patients with acute myeloidleukemia whose cancer cells have a FLT3 mutation.

Enzalutamide,an androgen receptor inhibitor, was associated with significantly longer progression-freeand overall survival than standard care in men with metastatic,hormone-sensitive prostate cancer receiving testosterone suppression.

Dana-Farberscientists reported on the feasibility, safety, and immunogenicity of apersonalized cancer vaccine that caused immune T cells to recognizecancer-related neoantigens on tumor cells. These results have promptedfurther development of a neoantigen vaccine approach.

Nadine Jackson McCleary, MD, MPH, Gastrointestinal Oncologist

Weve made strides in ensuring that evidence from cancer research studies actually makes its way into clinical practice. For too long, research findings often seemed to remain in academia without being translated to clinical medicine.

Professional and patient advocacy organizations have undertaken a variety of steps to not only implement these advances in the clinical setting but also to make sure theyre sustainable. For example, organizations such as the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and cooperative research groups regularly inform the broader public about research results and work at the state and federal level on behalf of patients. The development of implementation science is having a sizable impact on clinical practice.

Were also making progress in improving equity in cancer care delivery. Where equity issues have traditionally involved issues such as race, gender, and socioeconomic status, were broadening the focus to include considerations of gender identity, patient location (where patients receive treatment may affect their outcome), and treatment of the very youngest and oldest patients. These efforts will help ensure that advances in cancer medicine reach all populations.

Toni Choueiri, MD, Director of the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology

An important ongoing approach is liquid biopsies obtaining tumor-related DNA in the blood as a means of early cancer detection. Liquid biopsies also have the potential to detect minimal residual disease in the body following surgery to predict the risk of relapse.

Rameen Beroukhim, MD, PhD, Physician-Scientist in Neuro-Oncology

This decade is the first in which targeting collateral vulnerabilities in cancer cells has become an important strategy. Most efforts at treating cancer focus treatment on the genetic changes within cells that cause them to become cancer. But along the way, many genes that have nothing to do with cancer are also affected, and scientists have found that targeting these genes on which the cancer cells depend can be an effective way of attacking cancer. Immunotherapy, for example, detects cancer cells based on this collateral damage.

I predict that targeting collateral vulnerabilities will become increasingly important in future decades. Another recent strategy is based on the emerging technology of protein degradation, which removes cancer-related proteins from cells rather than simply binding to these proteins to inhibit their activity.

St. Catherine Hospital Scientists Confirm Long-Term Benefits of Stem Cells Therapy – Total Croatia News

Posted: December 21, 2019 at 7:47 pm

Croatian scientists from the St. Catherine Specialty Hospital published an extremely important scientific paper in the Genes scientific journal, showing that the injection of the stromal and the mesenchymal stem cells into the knee joint shows long-term effects when measured 24 months after application.

The paper, which you can read here (full text of the paper is available if the reading of highly technical and scientific papers is your thing) is called "A 24-Month Follow-up Study of the Effect of Intra-Articular Injection of Autologous Microfragmented Tissue on Proteoglycan Synthesis in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis. It's a multicentric project, with the goal to confirm the effect of micro-fragmented fat tissue (stromal vascular fraction from microfragmented lipoaspirate, so-called SVF) intra-articular injection 24 months after application, in the patients suffering from osteoarthritis (OA). The project head and the corresponding author of the paper was professor Dragan Primorac PhD, and the other authors are St. Catherine's Igor Bori, Damir Hudetz, Eduard Rod, eljko Jele, Andrea Skelin, Mihovil Pleko, and their partners from other Croatian scientific institutions Trpimir Vrdoljak, Ozren Polaek. Irena Trbojevi-Akmai and Gordan Lauc.

The results of this study suggest that the mesenchymal stromal and the mesenchymal stem cells separated from the microfragmented fat tissue lead to the increase of the key molecules of cartilage (the so-called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)) two years after the application within the joint. Although the numbers for 24 months after the application were somewhat lower than when measured 12 months after the application, in over 50% of the subjects (52 per cent) they were higher than before the treatment. The glycosaminoglycans (GAG) content in cartilage by means of delayed gadolinium (Gd)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of cartilage (dGEMRIC), as well as the clinical outcome on observed level of GAG using standard orthopaedic physical examination

Lucija Zeni and Denis Polanec from the Srebrnjak Children's Hospital helped the team in using the methods of immunophenotyping and flow cytometry to determine the types and the content of the MSC, determining the dominant populations of cells. At the same time, while examining the clinical results of the treatment of the knee with the autologous micro-fragmented fat tissue it was determined that 85 per cent of the patients report the significant improvement, as confirmed by the standard orthopaedic tests, such as Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Score (KOOS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), as well as pain intensity measurement - VAS scale.

At the same time, the team at St. Catherine's hospital wanted to report that the leading scientific magazine Nature published a chapter on "The Future of Cartilage Repair in the book they published called "Personalized medicine in Healthcare Systems", in which the doctors from their hospital participated as authors. They've argued that the production of the bioactive molecules increases the improvement of a number of measurable parameters in patients, and because of that specific effect they would like the "Mesenchymal Stem Cells" to be renamed the "Medicinal SIgnaling Cells". The new findings in the modern regenerative medicine and the available methods of therapy, performed at the St. Catherine's Specialty Hospital give new hope to the patient, provide the newest breakthroughs in the treatment of this disease, but also position the Croatian health system powerfully worldwide.

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common health problems in the world with the increasingly ageing population, and some estimated say that currently, over 600 million people suffer from it. The treatment has been based on relieving the symptoms and implanting the endoprosthesis when it was determined that the cartilage can not be salvaged.

Prof. Dragan Primorac, PhD said that the results published in the Gened magazine and the findings that were published changed some existing paradigms, and show the way towards a better understanding of the biology and the therapeutic effect of the treatment of the osteoarthritis with autologous stromal and stem cells present within the microfragmented fat tissue. In osteoarthritis and in numerous other diseases, the future of medicine will be based on the integration of the principles of personalized and regenerative medicine into the clinical practice. I am happy that the Croatian experts are allowed once more to prove their global excellence, and I'm especially happy that the results of our research have a great impact on the treatment of the patients suffering from osteoarthritis. It is clear that our results have an extraordinary significance in the development of the new diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic algorithms related to osteoarthritis.

Researchers mold silk into wide range of products – Tufts Now

Posted: December 21, 2019 at 7:47 pm

MEDFORD/SOMERVILLE, Mass. (December 16, 2019) Researchers led by engineers at Tufts University have developed a novel, significantly more efficient fabrication method for silk that allows them to heat and mold the material into solid forms for a wide range of applications, including medical devices. The end products have superior strength compared to other materials, have physical properties that can be tuned for specific needs, and can be functionally modified with bioactive molecules, such as antibiotics and enzymes. The thermal modeling of silk, described in Nature Materials, overcomes several hurdles to enable manufacturing flexibility common to many plastics.

We and others have explored the development of many silk-based devices over the years using solution-based manufacturing, said David Kaplan, Stern Family Professor of Engineering at the Tufts University School of Engineering and corresponding author of the study.But this new solid-state manufacturing approach can significantly cut the time and cost of producing many of them and offer even greater flexibility in their form and properties. Further, this new approach avoids the complications with solution-based supply chains for the silk protein, which should facilitate scale up in manufacturing.

Silk is a natural protein-based biopolymer that has long been recognized for its superior mechanical properties in fiber and textile form, producing durable fabrics and used in clinical sutures for thousands of years. Over the past 65 years, scientists have devised ways to break down the fibers and reconstitute the silk protein, called fibroin, into gels, films, sponges and other materials for applications that range from electronics to orthopedic screws, and devices for drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. However, breaking down and reconstituting fibroin requires a number of complex steps. Additionally, the instability of the protein in aqueous soluble form sets limits on storage and supply chain requirements, which in turn impacts the range and properties of materials that can be created.

The researchers reported that they have overcome these limitations by developing a method for solid-state thermal processing of silk, resulting in the molding of the protein polymer directly into bulk parts and devices with tunable properties. The new method similar to a common practice in plastics manufacturing - involves the fabrication of nanostructured pellets with diameters from 30 nanometers to 1 micrometer that are produced by freeze drying an aqueous silk fibroin solution. The nanopellets are then heated from 97 to 145 degrees Celsius under pressure, when they begin to fuse. The pleated pattern structure of the silk protein chains become more amorphous, and the fused pellets form bulk materials that are not only stronger than the solution-derived silk materials but also superior to many natural materials such as wood and other synthetic plastics, according to the researchers. The pellets are an excellent starting material since they are stable over long periods and thus can be shipped to manufacturing sites without the requirement for bulk water, resulting in significant savings in time and cost.

The properties of the heat molded silk, such as flexibility, tensile and compression strength, can be tuned to specific ranges by altering the conditions in the molding process, such as temperature and pressure, while the bulk materials can be further machined into devices, such as bone screws and ear tubes, or imprinted with patterns during or after the initial molding. Adding molecules such as enzymes, antibiotics or other chemical dopants allows for the modification of the bulk materials into functional composites.

To demonstrate applications, the researchers tested the bone screws developed with solid state molding in vivo and found they showed biocompatibility as implanted devices, where they supported the formation of new bone structure on the screw surfaces without inflammation. The silk screws were also able to resorb as they were being replaced by bone tissue. Resorption rate can be tuned by preparing screws at different temperatures, ranging from 97 degrees to 145 degrees Celsius, which alters the crystallinity of the bulk material, and therefore its ability to absorb water.

The researchers also manufactured ear tubes -- devices used to help drain infected ear canals -- doped with a protease, which breaks down the silk polymer to accelerate degradation as needed after the tube has served its function.

The thermal molding process is made possible because the amorphous silk has a well-defined melting point at 97 degrees Celsius, which earlier solution-based preparations did not exhibit, said Chengchen Guo, post-doctoral scholar in the Kaplan lab and co-first author of the study. That gives us a lot of control over the structural and mechanical properties of what we make. Chunmei Li, Tufts research assistant professor who teamed up with Guo as first author, added that the starting material the nanopellets are also very stable and can be stored over long periods. These are significant advances that can improve the application and scalability of silk product manufacturing.

Sunovion Announces FDA Filing Acceptance of Resubmitted New Drug Application for Apomorphine Sublingual Film – BioSpace

Posted: December 21, 2019 at 7:46 pm

The unpredictable nature of OFF episodes can be extremely challenging and disruptive to the daily lives of people living with Parkinsons disease as well as their care partners, said Antony Loebel, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer at Sunovion. We look forward to working with the FDA over the remaining review period.

People with Parkinson's have shared that OFF episodes can be disruptive and hamper their quality of life. New treatments could mean greater symptom control for more people, improving their ability and confidence to navigate daily life with the disease, said Todd Sherer, PhD, CEO of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinsons Research.

Apomorphine sublingual film is being developed as a fast-acting medicine for the on-demand treatment of all types of motor OFF episodes, including morning OFF, unpredictable OFF, delayed ON/partial ON and end-of-dose wearing OFF. OFF episodes can cause severe disruption for someone living with PD, often causing a major disturbance in a persons ability to maintain everyday activities. OFF episodes may worsen in frequency and severity over the course of the illness.1 While OFF episodes are experienced by 40 to 60 percent of people with PD, there are limited treatment options available to treat OFF episodes when they occur. 1

About Apomorphine Sublingual Film Apomorphine sublingual film (APL-130277), a novel formulation of apomorphine, a dopamine agonist, is being developed as a fast-acting on-demand treatment of OFF episodes associated with Parkinsons disease (PD). Apomorphine sublingual film is designed to offer a potential option that may be used to treat OFF episodes associated with PD up to five times throughout the day. It may help people with PD rapidly convert from the OFF to the ON state. Results of the pivotal Phase 3 study (CTH-300) of apomorphine sublingual film were recently published in Lancet Neurology. Apomorphine sublingual film has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In October 2016, Sunovion acquired Cynapsus Therapeutics Inc. (Canadian Specialty Central Nervous System Biotechnology Company), along with its product candidate APL-130277. Two early-stage APL-130277 trials were funded in part by The Michael J. Fox Foundation.

About Parkinsons Disease and OFF Episodes By 2030 it is estimated that 1.2 million people in the U.S. and an estimated 10 million people worldwide will be living with Parkinsons disease (PD).2 PD is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor symptoms, including tremor at rest, rigidity and impaired movement, as well as significant non-motor symptoms, including cognitive impairment and mood disorders. It is the second most common neurodegenerative disease behind Alzheimers disease, and the prevalence of PD is increasing with the aging of the population. OFF episodes are the worsening or re-emergence of PD symptoms (motor and non-motor) otherwise controlled by medications. These episodes may disrupt a persons ability to perform everyday activities and may be burdensome for patients, family and care partners. OFF episodes are experienced by 40 to 60 percent of people with PD and may worsen in frequency and severity over the course of the illness. 1
