      WE NNED ACTIVE PROMOTION OF UNORTHODOX IDEAS AT NCI

      The NCI lacks structure and intellectual capacity to promote outside-the-box (yet scientifically rigorous) ideas despite good intentions. See http://tinyurl.com/gostn3o .

      A simple reform of peer-review could unleash enormous innovative potential.

      Phenotypic testing to improve response, speed development

      CANScript is an in vitro phenotypic assay that has demonstrated a high clinical correlation across tumor types and drug classes. Expanding its clinical evidence could lead to very high patient response rates and dramatically faster drug development.

      Novel Non-coding RNA Biomarkers and Therapeutics in Cancer

      Interestingly, ncRNAs constitute more than 90% of the RNAs made from the genome, yet most of the over 20,000 ncRNAs currently known are largely under-studied and under-exploited for Novel Biomarkers and Therapeutics in Cancer.

      Use of Human-Relevant Test Methods in Preclinical Testing

      Oncology drugs have one of the highest failure rates in clinical trials. Investment in and use of modern, human-relevant preclinical test methods will increase translation to the clinic and the likelihood of success of novel new cancer drugs.

      International Institute of Oncology

      My idea is to create International Institute of Oncology with international partnership and participation. Teams of doctors from any country could work there working on new techniques and approaches in fight against cancer.

      Combinatorial therapy of gene editing and targeted radiation

      The increased efficiency of gene disruption or sequence modification enabled by synthetic CRISPR/Cas 9 (RNPs)provides a unique opportunity to increase the sensitivity of transformed cells to standard anticancer therapy in a combinatorial approach.

      Include Nutrition in Cancer Research Platforms and Protocols

      Optimum nutrition, including use of oral nutritional supplements, improves cancer treatments, course of disease, and health outcomes. Nutrition is often overlooked but is integral for clinical research to accelerate progress in cancer treatment.

      Impact of MTHDM's on Cost and Health Outcomes in Cancer Patients

      Medically Tailored Home Delivered Meals (MTHDM) are vital to ensuring cancer patients maintain a healthy and nutritious diet to withstand treatments, improve health outcomes and, in turn, reduce the cost of treatment.

      Patient communities on social media

      Social media is being leveraged to bring together breast (#bcsm), brain (#btsm), gynecological (#gyncsm), lung (#lcsm), and adolescent and young adult (#ayacsm) cancer communities together on Twitter through hashtags. We must magnify these voices.

      Use of Fast Pass for oncology patients to bypass ER

      Complex oncology patients would have a medical home in a hospital setting that allows them to obtain care for their symptoms on an outpatient basis from familiar providers. The resources of the hospital would be available but the ER avoided.

      When chemo doesn't work: Clinical trials of end of life care

      Oncology often equates inappropriate end of life hospitalization with aggressive management of symptoms in the home environment and dismisses both as ineffective. We need to develop and test models of treatment that improve and prolong life.
