cancer

“Cancer could easily just not exist in 10 years, and that's due to this change in how we think about things, and there's all these things on the back end.”

“So a company like Freenome will use machine learning and deep learning with genomics to be able to tell whether you have cancer early enough, such that the cure rate, success rate could be 80%, a hundred percent.”

“A lot of simple organisms just don't get cancer. They have mechanisms to fight that.”

“In the case of cancer, it's unfortunate that 40% of the men and women in this room will likely be diagnosed with a form of cancer somewhere in their lives, sometime in their lives.”

“And scientists have estimated that if we could cure all cancer, that would only get her up to 85. That would add only four years to the average lifespan.”

“Now, these are fundamentally very different diseases, different symptoms, different progressions, but they share the same underlying driving risk factor, which is how old you are.”

“So metformin is a first-line therapy for diabetes. Millions of people have been taking it for decades, and there was a paper that came out a few years ago where they looked retrospectively and saw that, hey, those diabetics that were taking metformin for decad…”

“There is some really tantalizing possibilities here that 80% of all cancers could be cured with existing drugs if we caught them early enough and we knew to give them early enough”

“With that in mind, I think a lot of us like to think that it's going to be the next greatest drug that's going to cure cancer. It's going to be that, you know, silver bullet. There isn't really going to be a silver bullet in my mind to treating a hundred diffe…”

“The best drugs that we have today to treat cancer called immunotherapies only give you about 30 to 40% chance of five-year survival in treatment. These are the best drugs that we have. Chemotherapy and radiation give you less than 20%. Chance of survival. On t…”

“This is where AI could really be a part of the key missing link towards the cure to cancer.”

“40% of Americans will get cancer, and that number is only going to go up.”

“The economists have calculated that just reducing one major disease, let's say cancer, by just 10%, The U.S. Would save about three, four trillion dollars in the long run.”

“And if you correlate cancer with aging, the dogs after the age of even five, the probability of cancer goes way up.”

“One thing that's interesting to think about is that you can think of DNA almost like a one-dimensional image, and so you can use the exact same technology now to put in DNA sequences, and maybe now you're not identifying a face, you're identifying whether some…”

“Cancer is the second leading cause of death, responsible for nearly ten million deaths globally every year.”

“I believe the missing link is extra chromosomal DNA or ECDNA, which represents a brand new way in understanding how cancer behaves.”

“This is what gives me hope that we will be able to one day erase cancer.”

“4000 people die every day of heart disease and cancer, and no one says a word.”

“When we think about disease, we think of disease as something bad happening to us, but a lot of that stuff is exacerbated with age, and that age itself is like so much of the challenge that we get Cancer and Alzheimer's and type two diabetes with such greater …”

“And cancer and neurodegenerative, just from what we know today with lifestyle factors, we're about half that can be prevented.”

“We only pick up 14% of cancers from that mass screening, which costs over hundreds of billions of dollars a year.”

“And so, you know, whether it's antibody drug conjugates, a tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, and all these different ways, it's hard to imagine that in the future, we're gonna lose people with cancer, Because of being able to bring your immune system to the high…”

“It takes 20 years to get these diseases, with rare exception. You know, heart disease, almost all cancers, and neurodegenerative, they are incubating for a very long time.”

“But the reality is, if you cure all cancer, you extend American's lifespan by three years.”

“Until we've solved cancer, every month that we're not rushing to the frontier of accelerating biological discovery or scientific progress is a month that millions of people are suffering from disease that we could be solving with the eye.”

“And what we showed at ASCO and we published from a phase two study, but we believe it's the same thing in the phase three, because it's mechanistic, is that around 99 zero percent of the antigen are different patient to patient.”
