Congratulations to the health care heroes at the Markey Cancer Center on becoming the first NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Kentucky, and one of only 56 in the country. I am grateful, and families know, they'll receive world-class care here when they need it.
As Health Subcommittee Chair, Iβm committed to leading the fight against cancer. Yesterday, I met with representatives from the KY Alliance for Childhood Cancer and the KY Pancreatic Cancer Network to discuss what weβve been doing in my subcommittee to support their efforts.
Yesterday @nytimes reported on preliminary findings from the #pancreaticcancer investigational #immunotherapy vaccine treatment approach published in @Nature. π While the study is still in early stages, we are encouraged by the findings and look forward to future results.
To learn more about immunotherapy or other treatment options, please contact PanCAN Patient Services at βοΈ 1-877-2-PANCAN. Read the full article: https://t.co/rCiN66faPg
