5. RACHEL BREM, M D , director of breast imaging and professor of radiology, THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL: "For the past 20 years, the death rate from breast cancer has declined by 30 percent, more in younger women, and is due largely to the increased use of mammography. The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) chose to ignore modern, compelling clinical trials that demonstrated a 40 percent reduction in breast cancer deaths and, rather, based their flawed recommendations on old data and mathematical models. Their recommendations also contradict the biology of breast cancer, which is more aggressive and faster growing in younger women. Comparing women 40 to 49 with a much wider age group, i e., 50 to 74, is unscientific and pure data manipulation. These age groups deserve the benefits of mammography, and denying that would amount to nothing less than reversing the reduction in breast cancer mortality we have achieved in the past 20 years." Brem is located in Washington D C

PROFNET EXPERT ALERTS: New Mammogram Guidelines [Forbes.com - 9 hours ago]

eldavojohn writes "Almost 6 years ago we discussed a vaccine to help people quit smoking as it entered human clinical trials. Now it looks like the finishing touches have been put on a deal that will go into effect once phase III testing of the drug now called NicVAX is completed. NicVAX was developed by Nabi Biopharmaceuticals, who have agreed to license it to GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals; it is expected to complete phase III testing successfully. Others have fallen short of this goal, in pursuit of a smoking-cessation market expected to hit $4.6 billion worldwide by 2016. Nabi has also sold an experimental vaccine for staph infections; and in 2008 we discussed news of a cocaine vaccine."
