A process normally takes years. But what happened next could signal a shift in the way the drugs are tested. Just as importantly, how quickly they reach patients. The company used an emerging trial method called forgiving drug therapies before surgery rather than after allowing researchers to gauge effectiveness at shrinking the tumor the model had been championed by a researcher. The idea as soon as you know something is effective you want to get to it patients. The therapy produced compelling results. We were able to increase the number of women who had no evidence of tumor in their breasts this fall they granted accelerated approval early. Supporters hope new combinations could follow. This is a new paradigm this, is a new way of developing drugs that should allow not only them, but any company to make a promising therapy and test it into early settings. Cancer patients are grateful. I can speak for anyone with cancer. Any break through for anyone is a break through for all of us. I cant wait to see where its going to lead us from here.

Now inspectors looking at better ways to crack down on rogue operators. A look at what is behind the tightening of the reigns for a lot of people its about time. With trucks roaming it could be difficult to stay on top of them. Mike and daniela toast with glasses as wedding gifts. Their reception in this backyard of their home. Everything was perfect. Except one thing. I had to apologize repeatedly to guests the food truck they hired didnt show up on time. Our first dance, and the hours went on. And food truck wasnt there. This contract the couple signed with gourmet rock stars stipulates the company was to set up at 5 00. Danielela says the truck showed up five hours late. That doesnt surprise the Alameda CountyEnvironmental Health department the department has been after the company two years. In the case of gourmet rock stars we have no idea where theyre getting their food from. What kind of preparation theyre doing. How theyre treating equipment on the vehicle. The county ordered the truck closed in 2011 for failure to obtain a valid Health Permit and operating with health has yards. Violations included no hot water for hand washing. Inspectors found ground beef sitting on steam table at 63 degrees. Proper temperature below 41 degrees for cold food. Weve had reports of operating weve not been able to catch them in the field. Gourmet rock stars seen here on his Facebook Page told us the company is no longer in business saying it shut down a year ago but only agreed to indicator the wedding as a favor to a friend and says the contract didnt call for dinner to begin until 9 00 the contract did not specify a time, only that it was to be held from 7 00 to midnight. He declined an interview. The problem more common than inspectors would like. There is a lot of a lot of illegal food vendors out there. Alameda county is implementing an aggressive program. The new guidelines include a green, yellow red system which must be posted on the food truck. Green means the truck passed its inspection. Yellow means it passed with conditions, red means it failed its inspection and has been closed. Alameda county will be the only bay area county to require the scores to be posted. As a consumer when you walk up, you have a little more confidence that that truck operates well. As far as food safety. Adreeana operates a truck in oakland. She recalls an unpermited truck making a construction crew it served sick. The next day, about ten of the guys didnt show up because they had stomach upset. So there is a lot of those trucks out there that dont keep up to code eric river runs a truck in ala media. He passed inspection and agrees more needs to be done. They want to make it so food trucks are no longer roach coaches people would call them.
