Myeloma Patients Have New Hope Thanks to New Treatments - WSJ video
Medical scientists have made major advances in treating different types of cancer in the past decade, but perhaps none more so than the blood cancer known as myeloma. WSJ's Ron Winslow explains on Lunch Break with Tanya Rivero:
"Here we are with all the time in the world"
"Here we are with all the time in the world" is my favorite song from the last Deep Purple album. The band apparently applies the same principle to recording their new album. More info here: Deep Purple Plan January Sessions for New Album http://buff.ly/1mBYXpm
Deep Purple – All The Time In The World Lyrics
There's still a long way to go
And the nights are closing in
But if I'd travelled any faster babe
Lord knows where I might have been
Right from those early days
I put my faith in the axle not the wheels
Like old Zeno's toytus
with Achilles snapping at my heels
Don't worry
There's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
I could have been a high-flying dealer
But I have no desire for speed
I could have been a wild receiver
But I've got everything I need
And so I watch the world
Go racing by tearing up the street
I lay back in the long grass
Take it easy and rest my feet
Don't worry
You know, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
No-one ever held me back
You know that no-one ever put me in chains
No-one ever saw me racing ahead
No-one had to tug on my reins
As everybody knows
I may be slow but I never quit
Sometimes on a good day I sit and think
Sometimes I just sit
Don't worry
Relax, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
Songwriters: AIREY, DONALD SMITH / EZRIN, ROBERT A. / GILLIAN, IAN / GLOVER, ROGER / MORSE, STEVEN J. / PAICE, IAN

Highly effective HCV treatment: once daily oral Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir
The hepatitis C virus (HCV), a single-stranded RNA virus of the family Flaviviridae with six major genotypes, infects up to 150 million people worldwide. Chronic hepatitis C virus infection causes progressive liver fibrosis, which can lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. There is now an effective oral regimen. New research findings are summarized in this short video from NEJM:
This is a ribavirin-free single-tablet regimen. There 2 medications in the single tablet:
- Sofosbuvir is a nucleotide analogue inhibitor of the HCV NS5B polymerase approved for the treatment of HCV in combination with a variety of other agents, including NS5A inhibitors, ribavirin, and peginterferon–ribavirin.
- Velpatasvir is a new pangenotypic HCV NS5A inhibitor with antiviral activity against HCV replicons in genotypes 1 through 6.
The rate of sustained virologic response among patients receiving sofosbuvir–velpatasvir was 99%.
See the NEJM article, "Sofosbuvir and Velpatasvir for HCV Genotype 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 Infection":
