Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–modified T-cell therapies have already achieved great success in hematologic malignancies, with clinical trial data showing high complete response rates in leukemia and lymphoma. So far, however, there has been little success with this approach in solid tumors. Now a case report indicates dramatic remission in a patient with recurrent and rapidly progressing glioblastoma. The case is described in a brief report published December 29 in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Anyone think this is by coincidence ? Standing close by her are Vlad and Xi. And behind her, Shinzo Abe. But look where Trump is. Kasich has to be ROFL'ing somewhere.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un taunted the US on Wednesday after carrying out an intercontinental ballistic missile test, saying it was a "gift" to "American bastards" on their independence day. The test of an ICBM on Tuesday was confirmed by US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who said it marked "a new escalation of the threat to the world". It marks a milestone for North Korea's missile programme and heightens concern in Washington about Pyongyang's declared pursuit of a nuclear-tipped missile that can reach the United States. The US "attempts to test our determination and ignores our warnings", the state-run...

Tony Blair presided over a silent conspiracy to change the face of Britain for ever with mass immigration, an explosive book reveals. He ordered his Labour government never to discuss in public the supposed ‘advantages’ of the unprecedented influx. But behind the scenes ministers were instructed to wave tens of thousands of asylum seekers into the UK under cover of their being ‘economic migrants’. Astonishingly, the minister Mr Blair put in charge of borders ruled against deporting failed claimants because it would be too ‘emotional’. The main aim of allowing in millions of people was to make the country ‘see...

[Pakistani Muslim] London Mayor Sadiq Khan likely won't be responding to President Trump's "ill-informed tweet" on the London attack any time soon. A spokesman for the mayor said Khan "is busy working with police, emergency services and the government to coordinate the response to this horrific and cowardly terrorist attack and provide leadership and reassurance to Londoners and visitors in our city. "He has more important things to do than respond to Donald Trump's ill-informed tweet that deliberately takes out of context his remarks urging Londoners not to be alarmed when they saw more police — including armed officers —...

May 9, 2017 Trump upheld Obama's honor when he bombed Syria. Trump has now defended Hillary's honor by firing Comey. Why aren’t liberals congratulating and thanking Trump? And now a Democrat is running the FBI on an interim basis, McCabe. Trump sure knows how to shut down an investigation, doesn't he? Democrats are so twisted with hate. Going to destroy themselves.

The Internal Revenue Service is demanding a whopping $7 billion or more in back taxes from the world’s most profitable hedge fund, whose boss’s wealth and cyber savvy helped Donald Trump pole-vault into the White House. Suddenly, the government’s seven-year pursuit of Renaissance Technologies LLC is blanketed in political intrigue, now that the hedge fund’s reclusive, anti-establishment co-chief executive, Robert Mercer, has morphed into a political force who might be owed a big presidential favor. With Trump in the Oval Office, Mercer and his daughter Rebekah, who has become his public voice, seem armed with political firepower every which way...

American President Donald Trump's two eldest sons - Donald Jr. and Eric - were in Dubai on Saturday to mark the official opening of the opulent Trump International Golf Club at a lavish party attended by a veritable "who's who" of Dubai's glitterati. Since January, Donald Jr. and Eric have overseen a trust that includes the Trump Organization's businesses and projects, a move which President Trump said was designed to avoid conflicts of interest while he holds office. The occasion marks their first overseas business trip since their father was inaugurated. During a brief speech made to a crowd of...

His comments caused some people on social media to cheer the idea of Cuban joining Trump's presidential ticket, should the real-estate magnate win the Republican nomination.

Say the House were to impeach him tomorrow morning and the Senate in the afternoon, hypothetically speaking could he be removed from office by the end of tomorrow ? He wouldn't have to come into work Thursday, and like the North Koreans said, could spend the day focusing on packing while Biteme subbed. Attending the inauguration on Friday would be optional too. He could sit with former presidents - say next to a former impeached president or could sit with the general public. That would be a great sendoff.
