We begin this episode with a discussion of Dr. Mukherjee's ongoing study combining a ketogenic diet with PI3 kinase inhibition. We continue with a take on a recent reanalysis of COMET-1 and COMET-2, two failed randomized controlled trials of cabozantinib versus prednisone or mitoxantrone-prednisone in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. We end with an interview on instabilities in the health insurance marketplace with Dr. Jane Zhu of OHSU, an expert in the Affordable Care Act.
