Similar to humans, animals too suffer from chronic diseases. Arthritis and other orthopedic conditions, chronic kidney disease, cancer, hepatitis and other liver diseases, skin allergies, diabetes mellitus, inflammatory bowel disease, and thyroid disorders are among the common chronic diseases in pets.
Background: The efficacy and safety of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) therapy rely on the concentration of its metabolites. The aim of the current study is the pharmacokinetic analysis of 6-MP and the detection of its metabolites as well as the role of Thiopurine S-methyl transferase (TPMT), the enzyme associated with 6-MP metabolism, as a pharmacogenomics biomarker.

Webinar 4: (Nov 20, 2020). Re-imaging Canada’s Rare Drug Strategy. Webinar 4 in CORD’s Rare Drug Strategy Consultation. A multi-stakeholder panel will discuss the many challenges that can “derail” the journey of a rare drug from regulatory approval to patient access. The panel will use two “case examples” to deliberate on the challenges presented by: adequate clinical trials evidence, cost-effectiveness assessment, affordability based on price negotiation, availability based on clinical and other services, and accessibility based on drug plan reimbursement. The panel will consider recommendations to “unblock” barriers that should be built into the operations of “Canada’s Rare Drug Agency 2022.”

Webinar 1 (Oct 9, 2020 at 12 -1 pm ET): Does Canada need an Orphan Drug Policy to incentivize drug development and submissions? What was the rationale for Orphan Drug legislation in other countries? What has been the impact of those legislations? Why did Canada develop and never implement a Canadian Rare Disease Strategy and what has been the aftermath? What is Canada’s Rare Disease Strategy and how has it influenced healthcare?
Key issues:
• Rationale and impact of Orphan Drug legislation around the world (1983 – today)
• Proposed Canadian Orphan Drug Framework and what could have resulted (2014)
• Proposed Canada’s Rare Disease Strategy and what did/did not result (2015 – today)
Given the benefits and challenges that have been raised about Orphan Drug Legislation and the current procedures for reviewing rare disease drugs across Canadian agencies (Health Canada, PMPRB, CADTH/INESSS, pCPA, provincial drug plans), should Canada still pursue a dedicated Orphan Drug Policy and, if so, what should it address? What are the opportunities for stimulating and supporting research and development for rare disease therapies in Canada and what are specific policies needed?

Does Price Discrimination Have a Place in Pharmaceutical Pricing in Developin...Office of Health Economics
At iHEA 2013, OHE's Adrian Towse participated in a session on implementing differential pricing schemes. He discussed the role of price discrimination strategies, including the use of discounts, access programmes and risk sharing agreements in increasing the number of patients who can benefit from new medications in LMICs. Real life examples illustrated differential pricing schemes between and within countries and provided background for exploring feasibility—particularly about how options relying on confidentiality and negotiation compare with those based on collaborative international agreement about how price differentiation is developed and implemented.

Before putting the product into the market, the product goes through several stages. One of the most important stages is to determine the price of the product. After that, it will be studied by asking questions to customers and anticipate their requirements in terms of shape, colour phrases recorded on it. It can be applied using servery or interview the customer. Finally, the product needs to be promoting before it is been released, so electronic, and visual and audio can be used as advertising. However, in this experiment, we will focus only on the total cost of the product and then work on finding who develops the product….[9] [10].

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.

2. Who we are
I-MAK is a non-profit organization of lawyers and scientists representing the
rights of low-income patients worldwide. We believe all people have the right
to access affordable, life-saving medicines for HIV/AIDS and other diseases.
We expand access to lower-cost generic medicines by addressing legal and
policy barriers:
• Challenging unmerited drug patents
• Partnering with stakeholders to achieve law and policy reforms
• Conducting advocacy
• Generating evidence-based research on intellectual property (IP)
We believe the patent system is broken and disproportionately represents
private interests over patient rights. Our mission is to change this.

4. Pricing Issues:
– Launched at $1000 per pill in HICs, totaling
$84,000 for 12 week course
– $7500 for 12 week course in some MICs (Note:
73% of people with HCV reside in MICs)
– Limited $900 price in Egypt and selected country
programs, along with donations in Georgia,
provide misleading picture to the public about
Gilead’s pricing structures for the majority of
people with HCV
Sofosbuvir (Hepatitis C Medicine)
5. Patent Issues:
• Not a new drug
• Not inventive (obvious)
• Based on an old compound + routine science
Bilateral Licenses: Gilead + Indian drug manufacturers
• Exclusion of 50 middle-income countries (50 million
people)
• Supplier Lock-Up: Generics prohibited from supplying
these countries even in absence of patents
Sofosbuvir (Hepatitis C Medicine)
6. Intervention
Types of Intervention:
- Patent Challenges Filed in Argentina, Brazil, China,
Europe, India, Russia, Ukraine
- Dialogue with Patent Offices Conducted in Egypt,
Morocco, Thailand (Note: Egypt has rejected patent)
- Compulsory Licensing
- Drug Pricing Advocacy
Rationale:
- Open the door for generic market entry,
- Incentivize generics
- Serve as leverage in price negotiations
Sofosbuvir: Interventions (2013-2015)
8. Potential benefits:
• If every person with hepatitis C in these five
countries would be treated - that is 40 million -
the cost savings would be $270 billion.
• If these governments treat just 8 million people
with hepatitis C in these five countries, based on
current percent HIV treatment coverage rates,
the cost savings are $50 billion.
Impact Analysis
9. Assumptions:
– Gilead price for 3,000 patients, 12 week course
$900 USD
– Remaining 1,861,840 patients purchase from
Gilead at middle-income country price of $7,500
(price given to Brazil used as proxy)
– Generic price available at $515 (see Methodology
slide)
Difference between purchasing directly from
Gilead, and purchasing generics is $13 billion
Scenario 1: Sofosbuvir Cost Savings for Ukraine
10. Assumptions:
- Gilead offers $900 price to all 1,864,840
people with HCV in Ukraine.
- Generic price is available at $515.
Difference between purchasing directly from Gilead,
and purchasing generics is $718 million
Scenario 2: Sofosbuvir Cost Savings for Ukraine
11. Impact Analysis: I-MAK Methodology
I-MAK’s analysis of potential savings from access to generic sofosbuvir in five MICs -
Argentina, Brazil, China, Russia and Ukraine - is based on disease prevalence numbers
from the paper "Evolving Epidemiology of Hepatitis C" (Lavanchy, 2010). To calculate
full potential cost savings, we multiplied the number of HCV infections by the current
percent treatment coverage for HIV, as a proxy for what HCV treatment levels could
reach in each country, then multiplied that number by the estimated difference in
price between generic and branded SOF.
For branded prices, we assumed $900 for a 12 week course of treatment in Ukraine,
and $7,500 in all other countries, based on actual quoted prices from Gilead to
Ukraine and Brazil. Prices for the other three countries were unavailable at the time of
publication, but reports thus far suggest that only Ukraine will be offered Gilead's
lowest access price of $900. The price in Russia may be even higher given that it is a
high income country. For generic pricing, our estimate of $515 took into account
experts’ projections of the generic launch price in India ($770) and the long-term
potential price (~$136)*, as well as a 7% royalty rate and 6% generic price premium
(based on generic HIV drug pricing data in LICs vs. MICs).
Impact Analysis: I-MAK Methodology
16. Future Action:
- Targeted interventions by civil society and generic
suppliers, e.g. patent challenges
- Government intervention to curb excessive pricing,
e.g. issuance of government use or compulsory
licenses, using local production or price caps as leverage.
- Global campaign on pricing of hepatitis C drugs
