☆ Novocure's lung cancer device study raises concerns around commercial use
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-06 | by ( Khushi Mandowara | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

June 6 (Reuters) - Novocure Ltd's <NVCR.O> experimental device to treat a type of lung cancer helped in extending overall survival among patients in a late-stage study, but concerns around its commercial success sent the medical device maker's shares down more than 34% on Tuesday. The device, used with certain chemotherapies and immunotherapies, helps in creating electric fields that disrupt cancer cell growth. Data from the study shows that the device, along with a class of immunotherapies know as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), extended survival by about eight months, compared to patients treated with ICI alone. Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and NSCLC accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers, the company said.

"People are more cautious," Knott told Reuters, staring at the empty building across the street from his existing Kreativ Dental clinic. Rising air fares and fewer flights - and the memory of last summer's travel chaos - are also putting off would-be patients, clinic operators and analysts told Reuters. A hip or knee replacement at Nordorthopaedics in Lithuania is about 15% more expensive now than five years ago, the clinic told Reuters. Lyfboat, an Indian company providing medical services for foreign patients, told Reuters it has collaborated with a fundraising platform called ImpactGuru to help patients pay for essential surgeries. ACUTE VS ELECTIVEThe International Medical Travel Journal, published by market intelligence service LaingBuisson, estimates the medical tourism market is currently worth around $21 billion, less than pre-pandemic, although editor Keith Pollard warned data is poor.

☆ Test proves that CO2 sucked from the air can be trapped in concrete
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-03 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

To do that, two things are needed: first, capturing carbon dioxide with nature or technology, and second, locking it up for centuries. The rock is then heated to release the collected ambient carbon dioxide, and the cycle repeats. Canada's CarbonCure, the concrete technology company, mixes CO2 with concrete ingredients, turning it into a mineral that strengthens the concrete, cutting the need for cement — the part of concrete with the biggest carbon footprint. The U.S. government and industry broadly see $100-a-tonne carbon dioxide as a reasonable price for broad deployment. However, concrete's ubiquity is attractive, because there are few places to securely hold carbon dioxide at present.
