Detailed data from the trial was presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting in Chicago on Sunday. Treatments for multiple myeloma include Johnson & Johnson's JNJ.N Darzalex and other generic cancer drugs. The US FDA in April approved two cell therapies - J&J's Carvykti, and Bristol Myers' Abecma - as earlier lines of treatment in less severe multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma, the world's second-most common blood cancer, starts in plasma cells in bone marrow and ultimately disrupts production of normal blood cells. Roughly 35,780 new multiple myeloma cases are likely to be diagnosed, with 12,540 deaths expected to occur in the United States this year, according to the American Cancer Society.

A 6-year-old provides unforgettable momentOn the morning of Memorial Day, I had my 6-year-old granddaughter Kira with me. It was a lovely parade, joyful but not exuberant, not flamboyant, rather with an air of respect for the dead. So we went over to the cut flowers where I quickly saw a bucket full of different-colored carnation bouquets for $6.99. Unfortunately, just three paragraphs, where Bouchat mentioned “more community involvement” and “memberships,” were devoted to the topic, with Bouchat offering zero information of what memberships are or what more community involvement might look like. If this is an example of what more community involvement looks like, I am afraid our local paper will remain what it has become, a mere shell of its former self.

There are more than 18,000 community clinics across the country offering affordable healthcare, particularly for people of low income group. Community health clinics are providing a broad range of services and health promotion activities to local population, particularly those who have or are at risk of poor health. But suddenly the community clinics changed my fate. Now I can visit doctors at the clinics anytime and at the top of that I get medicine free of cost,” she said with joy. Haridashi Woman and Child Care and Nutrition Centre of Brahmanbaria district is one such initiative, which provides health care and nutrition support to poor women and children.

I shall share Sierra Nevada College here (abbreviated) and let you be the judge…For the class of 2006 I have some good news and some bad. Life lesson #1: Money, you might be surprised to find out, money is not for throwing from the back of trains. Life lesson #2: You must travel, far. Life lesson #3: Read good books.

All the others have experienced big moments — major champions in Minjee Lee, Shibuno and Saso, the Solheim Cup pressure for Andrea Lee. Nelly Korda, Rose Zhang and other big stars in women's golf were long gone from missing the cut. Saturday was different, and Minjee Lee felt that might be the case. That only lasted long enough for Minjee Lee to hole an 18-foot birdie putt on the short par-4 16th, after laying back off the tee with a 5-iron. At stake is a $2.4 million payoff to the winner, by far the largest in women's golf.
