In this episode of the podcast I discuss the potential applications of ChatGPT in healthcare with Dr Harvey Castro.
Dr Castro is a physician, healthcare consultant and author, on a mission to increase awareness of digital health and implement new changes in healthcare. He has just released a new book, titled 'ChatGPT and Healthcare: The Key To The New Future of Medicine'. He is passionate about helping others to succeed in the healthcare and digital health industries and so I was grateful to have him on the podcast.
What is ChatGPT and how might it transform healthcare?
ChatGPT is a powerful language generation model that has the ability to understand and respond to natural language input. In the field of healthcare, ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize the way patients interact with their medical providers and access information about their health.

In this episode I raise awareness of the cancer metabolism study that I will be working on alongside Isabella Cooper at the University of Westminster.
This is a self-funded study that requires support from a number of sources. Establishing key partnerships and engaging with an audience who are equally as passionate about this subject is vital to our success.

In this episode we discuss how the Care Oncology Clinic supports cancer patients with integrating repurposed drugs into their treatment regime.
The clinic aims to complement standard treatments with repurposed drugs under the guidance of expert clinicians in order to deliver a safe, evidence based approach. Data is collected in order to improve outcomes for patients with various forms of cancer.We discuss the drug selection process, how safety and efficacy is monitored, what are the findings so far and future directions of the clinic.
Resources mentioned in discussion:
The Frontiers paper from 2019 which takes in research methods and strategy, and discusses some of the challenges associated with generating good quality real world evidence. It also present preliminary outcomes data in our cohort of 95 GBM patients:https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphar.2019.00681/full

-
8-year-old Deliah Sitorius had been fighting a rare brain cancer for almost a year with chemotherapy . Unfortunately this was unsuccessful and she stopped treatment immediately. Deliah was given hope after her mother discovered the tumour has a rare mutation often seen in lung cancer. Since applying a more targeted, personalised approach using a drug called Lorlatinib the tumour has been shrinking.
Loratinib is a third generation ALK ROS1 tyosine kinase inhibitor, specifically designed to overcome known ALK resistance mutations. It is able to penetrate the blood brain barrier and more recently we have seen paediatric brain cancer patients who are responding very well to the drug. -
In this episode, recorded just before the New Year, I discuss recent news in brain cancer research.
This includes:
How the drug loperamide (brand name Imodium), induces cell death in glioblastoma cell lines and if this could have promise for real, human applications.
Metabolic reprogramming via inhibition of a key cancer metabolite- D-2-Hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG).
Developments of liquid biopsies for glioma. -
This episode features long term GBM survivor and OurBrainBank board member Meredith Moore. We discuss the benefits of empowering patients to make informed choices about their treatment and how this has helped her to survive for 15 years and counting following a diagnosis of GBM in 2005.

Nathan Delack is a 7-time EMMY-award-winning television news photojournalist.
In this episode I interview Nathan on his upcoming documentary film about the McCullom Lake cancer cluster, chronicling the town’s search for answers and their fight for justice.

http://www.Twtitter.com/McCullomLake
Background:
In 2014, residents of McCullom Lake, Illinois, settled an eight-year-old lawsuit in which they claimed exposure to vinyl chloride and other volatile organic compounds from a nearby Dow Chemical plant had caused a brain cancer cluster in the area.
The original lawsuits also named the neighbouring Modine Manufacturing plant, alleging that its contribution of trichloroethylene to the plume made it culpable for illnesses. Modine settled with the plaintiffs in 2008 for undisclosed amounts.
The village of McCullom lake has a population of just over 1,000 residents. A brain cancer cluster of 33 brain tumours was reported at the time, with many more people thought to be affected following further investigation. -
