There’s No One-Size-Fits-All for Treating Older Adults with Cancer, According to New NCCN Patient Resource

0

New guideline for patients and caregivers explains the importance of assessments to tailor cancer care to every person, regardless of age.

PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®)—an alliance of leading cancer centers—is publishing a new resource to help patients and caregivers understand how to tailor cancer care for aging populations.

“The medical advances we’ve seen in cardiology and infectious disease are a huge triumph; because we are better at treating infections and heart disease, people are living longer, which means they are facing cancer in later years. We are seeing more and more people being treated for cancer at an advanced age,” explained Efrat Dotan, MD, Ann B. Barshinger Cancer Institute, Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health, Chair, NCCN Guidelines Panel for Older Adult Oncology. “We need to carefully assess any patient over 65, because there can be a huge range in areas such as memory function, physical ability, or treatment interactions with other medications and conditions. This resource explains what support is needed and suggests how to talk to your doctor about it.”

The new NCCN Guidelines for Patients® for Older Adults With Cancer, are developed from the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) for the same topic, which are the trusted treatment recommendations relied on by professional healthcare providers around the world.

The NCCN Guidelines for Patients are available for free at NCCN.org/patientguidelines or via the NCCN Patient Guides for Cancer App. Printed copies are available for a nominal fee at Amazon. They are made possible thanks to funding from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Foundation (NCCNF). Visit NCCNFoundation.org to make a difference in how people experience cancer care.

“Receiving a cancer diagnosis is a hard blow, and it can be very isolating at any age, but especially for older adults who need support and validation they can’t get very easily. I hope these guidelines can be a helping hand that takes away some of those lonely feelings,” said Glenn Sykes, Patient Advocate, NCCN Guidelines® Panel for Older Adult Oncology. “Even though I had my own cancer experience 8 years prior… caring for my mother—who was diagnosed with cancer at 95—presented me with many unique issues. For example: explaining treatment to someone with dementia. Having these guidelines would have been a tremendous support, and it’s my hope that they are helpful for anyone who finds themself in a similar situation.”

“The more informed a person can be, the better care they’re going receive, because they’re going to ask better questions,” said Louise C. Walter, MD, UCSF Chief of Geriatrics, Member of the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Vice-Chair, NCCN Guidelines Panel for Older Adult Oncology. “We all age differently. People should really be talking with their doctor about what makes sense for them as an individual, with their specific health situations, and come up with the best plan that’s not based on chronologic age, but on what’s most important to them.”

Dr. Walter continued: “These patient guidelines help explain how to determine the right treatment for the right person based on their unique situation and preferences.”

Both the clinical and patient version of the guidelines include easy-to-understand information about which assessment tools are available and how they should be used to help make decisions. They flag ways to support people with cognition issues, or at higher risk for falls. They are geared toward anyone diagnosed with cancer over the age of 65 but could be relevant for younger patients with additional medical concerns. While the likelihood of side effects and comorbidities increase with age, the guidelines stress there is a wide range of mental and physical fitness that people can experience well into their 80s, 90s, and beyond.

The NCCN Guidelines for Patients are updated every year in both English and Spanish. The award-winning series includes more than 75 resources covering nearly every type of cancer, plus prevention, screening, and supportive care topics like survivorship, fatigue, and distress management. They use plain language and images so everybody can play an informed, active role in making treatment decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Health care providers worldwide rely on NCCN Guidelines to stay current on the latest in care, to improve outcomes for people with cancer everywhere.

L’OCCITANE Group achieves a new milestone in its B Corp™ certification journey

0

Progress is measured not only by what is achieved, but by the commitment to keep improving.

GENEVA, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, L’OCCITANE Group is proud to announce further progress in its B Corp™ certification journey under B Lab™’s new Standards, with entities within the Group’s certification perimeter achieving certification or recertification under the new Standards. This marks a significant milestone in the Group’s ongoing work to strengthen its practices across governance, people and environmental topics.

L'OCCITANE Group achieves B Corp™ recertification under new standards

The accomplishment follows the Group’s first certification in 2023 and recognises the progress made over the past three years. More importantly, it marks the next stage of a continuous improvement journey under a significantly more rigorous certification framework.

Across its portfolio, the Group continues to advance its B Corp™ journey. A number of entities within the Group have already achieved certification or recertification under the new Standards, with further brands progressing towards their respective certification milestones. These milestones will also be communicated by the individual brands. This reflects the Group’s ongoing commitment to enhancing social and environmental performance across its businesses.

For L’OCCITANE Group, B Corp™ has never been simply about earning a badge of approval. Rather, it provides an independent framework that helps translate long-held values into measurable action, encouraging the Group to improve how it does business every day.

Raphaëlle Archambeaud-Sicot, Group Chief Sustainability Officer, said: “Responsible business is never static. The new framework encourages us to strengthen our governance, deepen our environmental and social impact and continue learning year after year. That spirit of continuous improvement remains at the heart of our approach.”

The new B Lab Standards represent a significant evolution in the way B Corp™ certification is assessed. Under the new Standards, businesses are required to meet specified requirements across seven Impact Topics, subject to the applicable assessment and verification process. Independent third-party audits, periodic subsequent audits, and increasingly rigorous requirements reinforce that being a B Corp™ is an ongoing commitment rather than a one-off achievement.

The Group is proud to be among the first cohort of companies engaging in recertification under the new B Lab Standards, contributing valuable input to the development of the framework and helping to shape the future of responsible business at scale.

CKGSB Survey Finds Cautious Investor Sentiment in China’s Stock Market in Q3 2026

0

BEIJING, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The latest CKGSB Investor Sentiment Survey points to cautious investor sentiment in China’s A-share market in Q3 2026, even as earnings at listed companies have begun to recover. During the May to September 2026 survey period, respondents lowered their expectations for A-share market gains, reduced expected returns and showed less willingness to invest.

Liu Jing, Professor of Accounting and Finance, CKGSB

58.6% expected A-share prices to rise, down 5.2 percentage points from April 2026. The expected rate of return fell 1.8 percentage points to negative 0.7%. The pullback was sharpest for direct stock investment: the net proportion seeking to increase stock holdings fell 7.3 percentage points to 10.7%; the corresponding figure for equity funds declined 1.2 percentage points to 13.4%.

Trading activity in China’s A-share market continued to rise. From December 2024 to August 2026, turnover ratios rose from 2.39 to 4.2 for the Shanghai Composite Index and from 5.84 to 8.5 for the Shenzhen Composite Index. Price-to-book ratios, however, rose only modestly—from 1.13 to 1.25 in Shanghai and from 1.93 to 2.4 in Shenzhen. Liu Jing, CKGSB Professor of Accounting and Finance and leader of the survey, interprets this mix as evidence of sharp divergence among investors rather than broad-based optimism, with investors divided over whether current prices represent value or risk.

That restraint contrasts with a recovery in corporate profits. Year-on-year trailing twelve-month net profit growth among A-share listed companies reached 5.9% in June 2026, after remaining negative from June 2022 through March 2026. Private enterprises recorded 36.7% net profit growth in Q2 2026, while strategic emerging industries reached 36%.

Confidence remains fragile beyond equities. The survey indicates softer household consumption and a prolonged property adjustment. It also reflects a structural imbalance: although China needs private enterprises and consumers to generate demand, financial capital continues to flow disproportionately to the government and state-owned enterprises. Directing even more capital toward the public sector is unlikely to address China’s insufficient demand and consumption, as government bodies and SOEs primarily support the investment side of the economy.

The CKGSB Investor Sentiment Survey is an academically grounded, high-frequency, large-sample barometer of sentiment in China’s capital markets. Combining behavioral insights with fundamental data, it tracks sentiment alongside macroeconomic and equity-market conditions, offering global investors context for assessing changes in China’s markets.

Hong Kong sets out strategic vision for developing the Northern Metropolis and creating a global talent hub


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 17 September 2026 – Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, John Lee, yesterday (September 16) announced the First Five-Year Plan for Economic and Social Development of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) (2026-2030) and his fifth Policy Address. Priority areas include accelerating development of the Northern Metropolis (NM) while also establishing an international hub for high-calibre talent.

“The NM will rise as an important strategic vehicle for advancing high‑quality post‑secondary education, integrating I&T (innovation and technology) and industry, and pooling international high‑calibre talent,” Mr Lee said. “It will become a major platform for Hong Kong’s deepening engagement with other cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) and integration into and serving the overall national development.”

image-1.jpeg

To foster the synergistic development of education, technology and talent, the HKSAR Government will take forward the establishment of the Northern Metropolis University Town (NMUT), integrating the five elements of education, technology, industry, talent and quality living environment.

Hong Kong’s Chief Secretary for Administration, Chan Kwok-ki said the NMUT will comprise three university towns (San Tin, Hung Shui Kiu and Ta Kwu Ling) with their combined campus areas covering about 300 hectares.

“Together with the surrounding technology areas, industry areas and living community areas, the overall planned areas of the three university towns will exceed 1,000 hectares,” Mr Chan said. “While each of the three university towns has its own strategic focus, their shared goal is to expand and strengthen Hong Kong’s education and research capabilities, connecting them with industry chains, supply networks, and markets locally and across the GBA to inject strong impetus into the city’s growth.”

The first building (Building 1 of the Loop Hong Kong Park) is scheduled for completion by the end of this year, and will be positioned as the flagship project for launching of the NMUT.

To dovetail with the development of the NMUT, and raise Hong Kong’s scientific research capabilities, the HKSAR Government will support the capacity expansion and enhancement of post‑secondary education. For instance, starting from the 2027/28 academic year, the Government will gradually increase the annual quota of the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme from 400 to 550 places by the 2029/30 academic year. Also, additional funding of $20 million will be provided each academic year to support knowledge transfer, thereby accelerating the transformation of innovative outcomes.

“The Northern Metropolis University Town not only supports the expansion and enhancement of Hong Kong’s post-secondary education, consolidating the city’s status as an international hub for post-secondary education, but also serves as a primary platform for Hong Kong to engage deeply in the Greater Bay Area, and integrate into and serve the overall national development,” Mr Chan said. “It also acts as a new engine to elevate Hong Kong’s international connectivity and reinforce its global competitive advantages.”

The NM accounts for about one third of Hong Kong’s total landmass and is projected to house about one third of the city’s population.

Hong Kong’s First Five-Year Plan sets a target of making available about 900 hectares of “spade-ready sites” from 2026-27 to 2030-2031. This would enable the provision of over 70,000 housing units and one million square metres of economic floor space.

Among the nine New Development Areas in the NM, construction works have begun at four of them (Kwu Tung North/Fanling North, Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen, Yuen Long South and San Tin Technopole and the Loop). A cumulative total of about 120 hectares of “spade‑ready sites” have been produced up to 2025‑26, while no less than 200 hectares of “spade‑ready sites” will be produced in 2026‑27 and 2027‑28.

Under the integrated strategy of urban-rural development, the NM will become an ideal place to live, work and travel. This, in turn, will help to attract talents and professionals to the area.

“Talent is the most valuable asset of any economy,” said Paul Chan, Hong Kong’s Financial Secretary. “Indeed, competition among different economies is determined by the quality of the talent they have. It is critical that we have people with the qualifications, experience and expertise required to support our economic development.”

The 2026 Policy Address announced several initiatives to attract the necessary talent for Hong Kong’s development, and to promote talent exchange and training.

These include relaxing the requirements on extension of stay under the Top Talent Pass Scheme (TTPS) for technology start‑up talent, and expanding the Immigration Facilitation Scheme for Invited Persons by extending its coverage from the current ASEAN Member States to also include countries and regions in Central Asia and the Middle East.

The HKSAR Government will also introduce a new visa category to allow non‑locals to participate in short‑term training programmes in Hong Kong, as recognised by bureaux and departments, advancing Hong Kong’s development into a regional training hub.

DXC Engineering and LOXO join forces to Accelerate Enterprise-Scale Autonomous Commercial Vehicle Deployment

0
  • DXC Engineering and LOXO are partnering to accelerate the deployment of Level 4 autonomous commercial vehicles for middle- and last-mile logistics.
  • The collaboration combines LOXO’s proven autonomous driving technology with DXC’s engineering, AI, data and systems integration expertise to help industrialize autonomous logistics at scale.
  • Together, the companies aim to move autonomous logistics beyond pilots and into repeatable enterprise operations that address driver shortages, cost pressures, and rising delivery demand.

ASHBURN, Va., Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC), a leading enterprise technology and innovation partner announced a strategic partnership with LOXO, a Swiss-based developer of Level 4 autonomous driving software for commercial vehicles to accelerate the deployment of autonomous logistics solutions at scale. Leveraging LOXO’s proven autonomous driving platform with DXC Engineering’s data and AI expertise, the two companies will help logistics customers deploy next-gen autonomous solutions faster and more reliably.

DXC and LOXO

Autonomous logistics, the systems providing the fully autonomous point-to-point transfer of goods, are rapidly moving from isolated pilots to real-world operations at scale. With industry projections pointing to around 750,000 unfilled truck-driver positions by 2028, logistics providers are facing rising delivery demand, driver shortages, cost pressures, and increasingly complex operating requirements. 

LOXO’s Level 4 autonomous driving platform has established the company as a leader in autonomous urban logistics, becoming the first company in Europe to receive approval for Level 4 driverless logistics operations on public roads.

The autonomous platforms are designed for logistics use cases, including repeatable point-to-point routes between hubs, warehouses, and distribution facilities, where autonomous vehicles can help operators add capacity and improve efficiency without depending solely on scarce driver availability.

Through this partnership, DXC Engineering will advance the industrialization and the scale-up of LOXO’s technology, enabling customers to deploy autonomous logistics solutions, such as driverless light commercial vehicles moving goods between warehouses, more efficiently across enterprise environments. Many autonomous vehicles today still operate mainly in pilot environments, without being fully integrated into customers’ logistics operations. A scalable solution requires more than the vehicle itself – it requires seamless integration with back-end systems, data services, fleet orchestration and operational workflows. The LOXO-DXC collaboration is designed to close this gap.

“We have spent years building the right technology, understanding the real needs of European logistics operators. As regulatory frameworks for autonomous driving take shape across Europe, commercial autonomous vehicle deployment is ready to move from pilots to scaled operations, and we are now ready to scale. DXC brings the engineering depth and enterprise delivery capabilities that complement our autonomous driving technology. Together, we have the opportunity to turn proven autonomy into scalable commercial operations,” said Amin Amini, CEO and Co-Founder, LOXO.

Scaling autonomous logistics

With more than 50 million vehicles powered by DXC technology, DXC will help scale LOXO Digital Driver™ (LDD) across enterprise logistics environments. Vehicle-agnostic and built for defined logistics use cases, LDD reflects LOXO’s understanding of European regulations, operator needs, and route-specific deployments. By combining LOXO’s proven Level 4 autonomous driving platform with DXC Engineering’s advisory, data, AI, systems integration, and delivery capabilities, the companies can help customers address driver shortages, cost pressures, urban access restrictions, and sustainability goals while integrating LDD with the back-end systems, data services, fleet orchestration, and workflows needed to run autonomous logistics reliably at scale.

“Autonomous driving technology is on the road today; the next challenge is scaling it across enterprise operations,” said Karim Jeribi, Europe General Manager, Consulting & Engineering Services DXC Technology. “DXC brings the engineering, integration, and delivery expertise to industrialize autonomous technology and connect it to the systems that keep logistics moving. Together with LOXO, we can help customers move from autonomous vehicles to fully integrated autonomous logistics operations.”

DXC and LOXO aim to create a repeatable deployment model for autonomous commercial vehicles, reducing complexity and accelerating adoption for logistics providers, fleet operators, and vehicle manufacturers. With LOXO’s platform as the foundation and DXC enabling industrial-scale delivery, the companies will focus on turning autonomous driving technology into commercially viable, scalable logistics operations that can be deployed across defined routes, expanded to new customers, and scaled across European markets and beyond.

NEW POLL: D.C. Policy Influencers, Small Business Owners and American Voters Demand U.S. Companies Receive Fair Treatment by Foreign Governments

0

Bipartisan majorities warn that U.S. lawmakers cannot tolerate discriminatory regulations by foreign countries that put American jobs, exports, and small businesses at risk.

  • 78% of the American public say they would be more likely to support policymakers who defend American businesses overseas, including 72% of Democrats and 87% of Republicans.
  • More than 90% of small business owners believe the success of American companies in international markets increases U.S. exports and advances American technology.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The U.S. government should ensure that American companies are treated fairly by foreign governments while doing business abroad — an issue that bipartisan majorities believe is critical to America’s future economic competitiveness, a comprehensive new poll finds.

The survey of Washington, D.C. policy influencers, small business owners and voters was conducted by the non-partisan research firm Penta Group and commissioned by the US-Asia Fair Market Alliance (US-Asia FMA).

The findings reveal that both Democrats and Republicans broadly believe U.S. lawmakers should make fair market access a priority, and that the U.S. government should respond swiftly to defend businesses against unfair discrimination. The poll also indicates that fair treatment of U.S. firms abroad is no longer seen as just a corporate concern, but as a vital pillar of U.S. economic competitiveness.

“This data sends an unmistakable message to both Washington and our trading partners in Asia: Americans expect a level playing field, and they expect our government to defend it. When foreign regulators selectively target American companies with discriminatory hurdles, they aren’t just harming them — they are choking off export channels for American small businesses, threatening domestic jobs, and undermining the very foundation of rules-based trade. We cannot allow our allies to reap the benefits of open access to the U.S. market while shutting the door on American innovation and enterprise.”
— Matt Mowers, Executive Director, US-Asia Fair Market Alliance

The poll surveyed more than 300 D.C. policy influencers — including congressional staff, think tank scholars, and foreign policy experts — and a nationally representative sample of 1,000 American voters, including 137 small- and medium-sized business owners.

Key findings from the survey include:

  • Broad Demand for Fair Treatment: 86% of D.C. policy influencers and nearly 90 percent (88%) of the American public agree that U.S. companies deserve fair and reciprocal treatment in foreign markets when doing business with global allies. That expectation applies regardless of the company or industry involved.
  • Small Business Owners Feel the Financial Impact of Unfair Treatment Abroad: 70% of small- and medium-sized business owners believe unfair treatment of American companies abroad could have a significant impact on their financial well-being.
  • Consequences for Trade Alliances: A decisive majority of respondents (76% of voters and 71% of D.C. policy influencers) believe the U.S. should respond equally firmly to unfair market restrictions imposed on U.S. companies, regardless of whether the country involved is a close ally.
  • Protecting U.S. Exporters: 67% of voters and 75% of D.C. policy influencers warn that unfair or discriminatory treatment of U.S. companies can cause significant harm to U.S. exports — and over three-in-five D.C. policy influencers believe the issue should be addressed through trade negotiations or formal dispute-settlement.
  • Bipartisan Mandate for U.S. Policymakers: 78% of the American public say they would be more likely to support policymakers who stand up against discriminatory barriers to American businesses overseas, including 72% of Democrats and 87% of Republicans. An equal share (78%) say policymakers who support small businesses should prioritize addressing unfair treatment of American companies abroad.

The release of the poll comes amid mounting public scrutiny over regulatory actions in key markets including the European Union, China, India and South Korea, where American companies are facing disproportionate regulatory pressures that do not apply equally to domestic competitors.

Looking to the future

When U.S. companies are treated fairly in overseas markets, bipartisan groups see positive opportunity for U.S. economic growth, including growth opportunities for small business, job creation and increasing international trade.

  • More than 90% of D.C. policy influencers and small business owners believe fair international markets increase U.S. exports and advance American technology.
  • Across all surveyed groups, over three out of four believe international success of U.S. companies creates more opportunities for U.S. small businesses and creates more American jobs.
  • More than half of small- and medium-sized business owners say some share of their sales come from outside the U.S., and 63% have considered expanding into international markets.
  • 92% of D.C. policy influencers say options like e-commerce marketplaces are important in helping U.S. businesses reach new international markets, and 88% say fair access could help spur growth for U.S. small businesses.

HANNOVER, Germany, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CDTL is showcasing its latest commercial vehicle technologies at IAA Transportation 2026, Hall 21, Stand D37, including distributed electric drive axles for heavy-duty vehicles, EMB electromechanical braking, and solutions for heavy-duty trucks, city buses and next-generation transit systems.

The exhibition highlights CDTL’s distributed e-drive solutions already proven in large-scale commercial operation, its EMB braking system now entering vehicle-level application, and the continued deployment of drive-by-wire, brake-by-wire and steer-by-wire actuation technologies across a wide range of commercial vehicle applications.

The EA5000NP distributed electric drive axle features two oil-cooled motors, a two-speed transmission and independent left- and right-wheel drive. Without a mechanical differential, it enables electronic differential control, traction control and independent wheel torque management. Its 800 V configuration delivers up to 660 kW rated power and 900 kW peak power, while the underlying platform has already been deployed in more than 3,000 vehicles. For demanding heavy-duty applications, the four-speed EA4800N multi-speed electric drive axle delivers approximately 48,000 N•m of maximum wheel-end torque per axle, with nearly 100,000 N•m available in a 6×4 dual-drive-axle configuration.

The EA2100N low-floor electric portal axle has been widely deployed in commercial operations, with proven service experience across European markets including France, Austria and Belgium.

For intelligent buses and next-generation public transport, the EA1100K independent-suspension distributed drive system integrates drive, steering and independent suspension, enabling all-wheel steering, bidirectional operation and a 100% low-floor architecture. It is already in operation in China, Malaysia and Türkiye. CDTL’s EMB braking system has entered small-series vehicle application. In vehicle applications, it can reduce vehicle weight by more than 100 kg, shorten braking distance by approximately 10%, and reduce braking-system energy consumption by up to 85.4%, demonstrating clear benefits in lightweighting, braking performance and energy efficiency.

On the Press day of the exhibition, CDTL’s booth attracted strong interest from companies across the global commercial vehicle value chain, including vehicle manufacturers. A number of leading industry players visited the booth and engaged in technical discussions with the CDTL team.

The continued attention from global industry players also reflects a broader market trend: as commercial vehicles move rapidly toward electrification, intelligence and autonomous operation, the industry is placing increasing emphasis on high-efficiency e-drive systems, brake-by-wire technologies and core vehicle actuation capabilities.
