Blackrick had exhausted all the standard treatments for multiple myeloma. His only option was to travel across the country to participate in a clinical trial under the guidance of Dr. Andrew Cowan, associate professor (Medical Oncology). In this trial he would receive CAR T-cell therapy, which would re-engineer his body?s own cells, then reinfuse them to fight his disease. This particular trial emerged from research conducted by Dr. Damian Green at Fred Hutch. ?The idea-which is based on pre-clinical work done at Fred Hutch-is if we can increase the target on plasma cells, the CAR T cells can potentially work better,? says Dr. Cowan. ?Dr. Green?s pre-clinical work, as well as data from our trial, showed that gamma secretase inhibitors can increase BCMA on the plasma cells. The results look very promising. This is a great example of translational research done at Fred Hutch that led to a novel treatment combination that could potentially benefit patients.? By the time Blackrick arrived in Seattle in July 2019, his plasma consisted of about 90% cancer cells. He has now been in remission for over a year. He credits Dr. Cowan with saving his life.

Thirty-seven percent (37%) of the Categorical track is URM and 18% of the Primary Care track. This is incredible progress for our program that is becoming more and more diverse.

Faculty news In memoriam: Christopher Bryson [cid:image043.jpg@01D83AE9.FB13CF00]Dr. Christopher Bryson, emeritus associate professor (General Internal Medicine) passed away last week. A core investigator in the VA Northwest Health Services Research and Development Center of Excellence, he pioneered early efforts to measure medication adherence by using large, national, pharmacy databases and applied those metrics in pharmaco-epidemiologic studies of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. He also conducted important studies of quality of care and served as medical director of the Clinical Outcomes Assessment Program (COAP), a non-profit organization responsible for improving quality of care for PCI and CABG in the state of WA. A memorial service is planned and details are forthcoming. The family has requested that donations in his honor be made to the Division of General Internal Medicine Research Fund (contact Michelle Lynch). ________________________________ Gaining Perspective on Life During the Pandemic From Astrophotography [cid:image044.jpg@01D83AE9.FB13CF00]Growing up in Shiraz, Iran, the night sky awed Dr. Sina Gharib, professor (Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine). During the war with Iraq, cities would go dark at night to prevent aerial bomb threats. While this was undoubtedly a scary situation, he used it as an opportunity to admire the stars without light pollution. When the pandemic hit and he found himself spending more time at home, he decided to finally pursue his interest in the night sky. He started in his backyard, connecting an 11-year-old camera to his telescope. Astrophotography also gave him time and space to reflect on the past years in the pandemic. "It makes me appreciate what I have and puts life into perspective," he said. "I'm less stressed or concerned about small things. The images from some galaxies are millions of light years away, so what we're seeing is looking back into history in some ways. It makes me appreciate the vastness of space and puts into perspective our troubles and difficulties, which in the big picture aren't really a big deal. We're not the center of the universe" Read the full story in The Huddle. Research news NIH All of Us Research Program releases genomic dataset [Genomic data from a diversity of people]Almost 100,000 highly diverse whole genome sequences are now available through the National Institutes of Health's All of Us Research Program. About 50% of the data is from individuals who identify with racial or ethnic groups that have historically been underrepresented in research. This data will enable researchers to address as yet unanswerable questions about health and disease. Such studies could lead to new breakthroughs and advance discoveries to reduce persistent health disparities. "That not only means that we're generating the genotype and sequence data that scientists will use, and that will be returned to the participants, but we also are leaders in how that genotyping data will be used, what is important, and what is the best use of future data," said Dr. Gail Jarvik, professor and head (Medical Genetics). Jarvik has been involved with the All of Us project at the Northwest Genome Center since 2018.
