New Cancer Vaccine Show Promise for Mesothelioma Treatment

April 29, 2014  

As the quest for better faster mesothelioma treatment continues, no facet of the illness is left unexplored. Yet sometimes instead of going deeper and deeper into the most miniscule facets of mesothelioma, medical researchers go back to a more basic level to find answers. Basically, mesothelioma is a type of cancer. And, as scientists are increasingly realizing, what kills one type of cancer cell may actually be able to kill other types of cancer cells. So what we’re seeing now is a kind of sharing of experimental medical therapies across types of cancers with the goal of helping as many … [Read more...]

New Innovative Mesothelioma Treatment Study in England Needs Participants

April 25, 2014  

What does mesothelioma treatment have in common with the poem that begins “Oh to be in England, now that April’s there?” Basically the fact that it’s April and there’s a very interesting mesothelioma treatment clinical trial underway in England that is now recruiting participants. The clinical trial is being done at the Experimental Cancer Medicine Center of the Sheffield Teaching Hospital in Sheffield, a city in South Yorkshire 144 miles from London. What makes this clinical trial interesting is the novel approach to mesothelioma treatment. The researchers are testing using a catheter to … [Read more...]

Test for Early Mesothelioma Diagnosis Advances With New Research

April 9, 2014  

Now when a mesothelioma diagnosis is made it means the disease has progressed to a stage that makes its presence both unmistakable and incurable. Because there are no reliable early tests to determine a mesothelioma diagnosis, precious time is lost without even knowing the disease is there causing irreparable damage. Clearly a top priority for mesothelioma research science is to develop a way to nip mesothelioma in the bud and treat it before it reaches the stage where a mesothelioma diagnosis means terminal. Recently scientists in Japan made the quest for early mesothelioma diagnosis a step … [Read more...]

Mesothelioma Survival Doubled By Radiation Before Surgery, New Study Reports

April 1, 2014  

Mesothelioma survival is a top priority for all of us involved with this merciless disease.  Increasing mesothelioma survival through new better treatments and prolonging the lives of mesothelioma patients is a hope we will not relinquish. That’s why we report to you on new published studies with promising results. An exciting new Canadian study found that treating mesothelioma with radiation before surgery resulted in a three-year survival rate - more than double the rate of treating with surgery first. The study included 25 patients with mesothelioma who underwent five days of radiation … [Read more...]

Spinal Procedure May Offer Malignant Mesothelioma Pain Relief

March 27, 2014  

One of the worst parts of malignant mesothelioma is the physical pain it brings. It is tragic that malignant mesothelioma cuts life short.  The tragedy is compounded when severe physical pain interferes with daily living and prevents the full enjoyment of the time that remains.  Mesothelioma pain is draining, distracting and just plain awful. Now there is new evidence that a spinal procedure may provide pain relief for malignant mesothelioma patients.  Called cordotomy, it is a surgical procedure that disables selected pain-conducting pathways in the spinal cord, in order to eliminate … [Read more...]

What Matters Most for a Successful Mesothelioma Surgery?

March 24, 2014  

Mesothelioma surgery should be straightforward.  But like so many aspects of this asbestos-caused disease, unfortunately it isn’t.  As if coping with mesothelioma itself wasn’t difficult enough, the field of mesothelioma surgery research is rife with conflicting ideas and research over what is best. Here in Mesothelioma Circle we’ve reported on mesothelioma surgery studies that explore issues such as the potential benefit of surgery after chemotherapy, factors that help improve surgery results and whether mesothelioma surgery is beneficial at all. At present, we focus on a new study comparing … [Read more...]

New Mesothelioma Clinical Trial Gives You a Shot in the Arm to Fight Mesothelioma

March 10, 2014  

All those who struggle with asbestos-caused disease run into the same wall – there are few ways to fight mesothelioma.  That is why we need to continue looking for any openings in that wall and do our best to help expand them into bigger and better ways to fight mesothelioma.  We need to help tear down that wall through mesothelioma clinical trials. One of the ways to help fight mesothelioma is to participate in a mesothelioma clinical trial.  In other words, become a guinea pig to help medical researchers on track to help find a cure.  How do we know they’re on track?  Their call for study … [Read more...]

New Study Questions Surgery’s Role in Improving Survival For Mesothelioma Diagnosis

March 3, 2014  

If you or a loved one has received a mesothelioma diagnosis, trying to beat the odds and live as long as possible with a mesothelioma diagnosis becomes of the utmost importance.  That is understandable. One of the ways currently believed to possibly extend survival with a mesothelioma diagnosis is undergoing an extensive radical surgery procedure.  Because mesothelioma is a cancer attacking the mesothelin cells lining the lungs, the surgical procedure involves either removing the lung, called extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) surgery, or lung-sparing pleurectomy/decortication (P/D) surgery to … [Read more...]

Is Participating in a Mesothelioma Treatment Clinical Trial Right For You?

February 25, 2014  

As a mesothelioma patient, participating in a mesothelioma treatment clinical trial seems like a good course of action to take.  You will be helping medical research advance a new experimental mesothelioma treatment that one day could help save the lives of many mesothelioma patients. Also because treatment options are limited at this time, a mesothelioma treatment clinical trial offers hope and a way to access a new state-of-the-art treatment.  That’s why we regularly monitor the federal government’s clinical trials website and present to you new mesothelioma treatment clinical trials … [Read more...]

Fighting Mesothelioma With the Measles – Mayo Clinic/NCI Mesothelioma Clinical Trial

February 21, 2014  

Just like the saying, “Fight fire with fire,” a mesothelioma clinical trial now recruiting participants is looking into fighting mesothelioma with the measles.  But don’t worry; the scientists are not going to give you a case of the measles.  Specifically, they are investigating fighting mesothelioma by using a specific measles virus to vanquish malignant mesothelioma cells. Although the study first started getting underway a couple of years ago, it is now in the phase of actively looking for mesothelioma patients interested in trying this novel approach to fighting … [Read more...]
