Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world today. According to one study, there were 14.1 million new cases of cancer and 8.2 million cancer-related deaths worldwide in 2012. The most commonly diagnosed cancers were lung (1.82 million), breast (1.67 million), and colorectal (1.36 million). The most common cancer deaths are due to lung cancer (1.6 million deaths), liver cancer (745,000 deaths), and stomach cancer (723,000 deaths) (Ferlay, J. et al, 2015).

Janssen Research & Development, LLC (Janssen) announced it has submitted a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) seeking a new indication for INVOKANA® (canagliflozin) to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), composed of cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction and stroke, in adults with type 2 diabetes who have established CV disease or are at risk for CV disease.

Users of statins, widely prescribed for prevention of cardiac disease, have a 27% lower risk of contracting a Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bloodstream infection outside of a hospital, according to a new study in Mayo Clinic Proceedings. Researchers report that statin use, especially among elderly patients with preexisting chronic conditions such as diabetes, kidney, or liver disease, may be protective against this serious bloodstream infection. As the western world's population is aging and more people live with chronic medical conditions, any potential preventive effect of statins could have important clinical implications.
