When combined with other treatments, the drug cetuximab?which works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells?has been shown to extend survival in certain types of cancer, including metastatic colorectal cancers. Unfortunately, about 40 percent of colorectal cancer patients?specifically those who carry a mutated form of a gene called KRAS?do not respond to the drug. Researchers at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, however, have been working on a way to overcome this resistance to cetuximab by unleashing a second cetuximab driven mechanism using a novel drug called ARI-4175. The researchers from Fox Chase will present their findings at the AACR Annual Meeting 2012 on Wednesday, April 4.

In mice that had KRAS mutated colorectal cancer, researchers found that ARI-4175 not only blocked tumor growth when used alone, but also when used in combination with cetuximab. They hypothesize that the new drug may work by enlisting ?natural killer? cells of the body?s own immune system to reject the tumor.

?We?ve discovered that ARI-4175 appears to increase the level of natural killer cells that could play a role in rejecting the tumor,? Hossein Borghaei, D.O., director of thoracic medical oncology at Fox Chase and lead author on the study says. He notes that this action?rallying the body?s own immunologic defenses?may explain why ARI-4175 effectively stops the growth of tumors. ?My theory is that this particular drug turns on the host?s anticancer immune response, while cetuximab serves to help direct it toward the cancer.?

Borghaei, along William W. Bachovchin, Ph.D., professor of biochemistry at Tufts Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences (also co-author on the study) and colleagues, tested ARI-4175 in colorectal cancer cell lines and in mice with two types of cetuximab-resistant colorectal tumors. Neither cetuximab nor ARI-4175, separately or together, succeeded in killing the cells in lab dishes. In the mice, however, ARI-4175 blocked tumor growth, and was more successful at higher doses of the drug. The research shows an even stronger effect in mice that received ARI-4175 combined with cetuximab.

Cetuximab, which is FDA-approved for metastatic colorectal cancer and some head and neck cancers, works by blocking a crucial receptor on the surface of a cancer cell?causing the cell to die. In people carrying the mutated form of the KRAS gene, cetuximab is not effective, but ARI-4175 may open up a detour around that impasse.

Borghaei notes that a cancer treatment like the immune stimulator ARI-4175, which uses the body?s own defenses, may be more effective than drugs targeting tumor oncogenes that are susceptible to mutations that lead to resistance. ?Tumors often develop resistance to targeted therapies,? he says, ?but it?s more difficult to find resistance to a patient?s own immune system. Bringing in the activity of the immune system might be the most effective way to fight some of these cancers.?

?Our immune system can actually be a very useful partner in the fight against cancer,? he says.

The researchers say their results suggest ARI-4175 warrants further testing in clinical trials. Although the researchers investigated colorectal cancer, their findings may also point to new approaches to treating other types of cancer. ?If we can show that the drug overcomes resistance to cetuximab, it can be used against head and neck cancers as well,? says Borghaei.

Internet marketing ? The modern days marketing

Article by parmod gusain

Internet marketing is a new innovative way to promote your products or services through Internet. It is also referred to as I-marketing, web marketing, online marketing, or marketing. In simple term Online Marketing is the marketing of products, or, services over the Internet. The Internet has brought many unique benefits to marketing, one of which being lower costs and greater capabilities for the distribution of information and media to a global audience. The interactive nature of online marketing, both, in terms of providing instant response and eliciting responses, is a unique quality of the medium. Web marketing is sometimes considered to have a broader scope because not only it refers to digital media, such as, the Internet, e-mail, and, wireless media, but also includes management of digital customer data and electronic customer relationship management (ECRM) systems.

Merits of Online MarketingInternet marketing as of 2009 is growing faster than other types of media.Because exposure, response, and overall efficiency of Internet media are easier to track than traditional off-line media-through the use of web analytic. Here are the some advantage of Web marketing over traditional method of advertising -

* Cost SavingInternet marketing is relatively inexpensive when compared to the ratio of cost against the reach of the target audience. Companies can reach a wide audience for a small fraction of traditional advertising budgets.

* Quick ResultsThe nature of the medium allows consumers to research and purchase products and services at their own convenience. Therefore, businesses have the advantage of appealing to consumers in a medium that can bring results quickly.

* Measure StatisticsInternet marketers also have the advantage of measuring statistics easily and inexpensively. Nearly all aspects of an Internet marketing campaign can be traced, measured, and tested.

* Variety of MethodsThe advertisers can use a variety of methods: pay per impression, pay per click, pay per play, or pay per action. Therefore, marketers can determine which messages or offerings are more appealing to the audience.

* Track resultsThe results of campaigns can be measured and tracked immediately because online marketing initiatives usually require users to click on an advertisement, visit a website, and perform a targeted action. Such measurement cannot be achieved through billboard advertising, where an individual will at best be interested, then decide to obtain more information at a later time.

* AccountabilityInternet marketing can offer a greater sense of accountability for advertisers. Marketers and their clients are becoming aware of the need to measure the collaborative effects of marketing.

Demerits of Online MarketingBelow are the some limitations of these new advertising trends -

* Need of New TechnologyInternet marketing requires customers to use newer technologies rather than traditional media.

* Low-speed Internet connectionsThey are another barrier: If companies build large or overly-complicated websites, individuals connected to the Internet via dial

-up connections or mobile devices experience significant delays in content delivery.

* Sense of goodsFrom the buyer?s perspective, the inability of shoppers to touch, smell, taste or ?try on? tangible goods before making an online purchase can be limiting.

* Security concernsInformation security is important both to companies and consumers that participate in online business. Many consumers are hesitant to purchase items over the Internet because they do not trust that their personal information will remain private. Encryption is the primary method for implementing privacy policies.

* Delivery IssueAnother major security concern that consumers have with e-commerce merchants is whether or not they will receive exactly what they purchase.

* Payment IssueOne should have credit cards to do the purchasing on these sites.

Categories of Online MarketingInternet marketing is associated with several business models like -

* E-Commerce

* Publishing

* Lead-based websites

* Affiliate marketing

Is that it for “The Hunger Games” and Gary Ross? That’s a possibility we’re looking at based on a new report that the filmmaker and Lionsgate are in “tough negotiations” regarding how much he’ll earn for the planned sequel, “Catching Fire.” On paper, the idea of another director getting to put his or her stamp [...]

‘He’s behind the camera,’ the group jokes to MTV News about Biebs’ absence from ‘Live My Life’ clip.
By Jocelyn Vena

Justin Bieber proclaims that he just wants to “Live My Life” on the hook for Far East Movement’s latest track. The Dirty Bass single is a feel-good, fist-pumping anthem about, well, living your life.

The dance-music-making crew opened up to MTV News about hooking up with the “Boyfriend” singer and bringing him into their world of dirty beats and even dirtier bass.

“We got to thank him for being in our world for us,” Kevin Nishimura said about the experience of hitting the studio with Bieber. “When we met with him, [it was like] ‘Let’s do a song that caters to that audience that’s outside the Far East Movement shows going, “We can’t get in, but we live that life.” ‘ And there’s that audience that’s in the club popping the bottles, doing that thing, living that.”

Finding that perfect balance and hooking up with the hitmaking teen wasn’t hard since the guys of Far East Movement are all about music encompassing everything and everyone. In their world, there are no restrictions. “We’re always about all-inclusiveness, no matter your race, your sex, whatever it be,” they said. “That’s the type of music we make. So with Justin, it was definitely unexpected as far as both audiences, but it makes sense.”

When the guys dropped the party-themed clip for the track, which also features LMFAO, Bieber was noticeably absent from the clip. It follows both Far East Movement and LMFAO as they make their way through a European city, dancing through the streets and riding on an animal-print, double-decker bus.

“Just for the record — ’cause we’ve been seeing people like, ‘Where is he in the video?’ — he’s behind the camera,” Nishimura joked. “We sent him one of those party-favor cards saying, ‘You are invited to the Far East Movement/Justin Bieber video shoot,’ but he was working on his thing, you know. He’s got a new single out, his album, so he couldn’t make it. But he said, ‘No matter what, I’m gonna party tonight.’ So it’s all love.”

RedOne produced the song. Dirty Bass drops May 8.
