Lung Cancer Survival Doubles With Advances In Modern Therapies, Says Expert
Clinical Oncologist Dr. David Lee during an exclusive interview in conjunction with World Lung Cancer Day at Sunway Medical Centre, Sunway City. KUALA LUMPUR, July 30 (Bernama) -- Lung cancer, long known as a 'silent killer' and consistently among the top three causes of cancer-related deaths in Malaysia, is now seeing a shift in outlook. Clinical Oncologist at Sunway Medical Centre, Sunway City (SMC), Dr David Lee Dai Wee said, thanks to advances in modern therapies, patient survival rates are doubling, offering new hope where it was once scarce. He highlighted that nearly 60 percent of lung cancer patients in Malaysia are only diagnosed at stage four, the most advanced stage, with a five-year survival rate of less than 15 percent, according to the National Cancer Registry. 'In the early stages, such as stage one or two, patients often experience no symptoms at all. As a result, lung cancer is frequently diagnosed at a later stage when symptoms begin to appear. These may include a persistent cough lasting two to three weeks or longer,' he told Bernama. Other symptoms may include coughing up blood (hemoptysis), chest pain during breathing, shortness of breath and unexplained weight loss, said Dr Lee, adding that the spread of cancer to other organs may also cause pain in different parts of the body. He noted that while tobacco smoking is responsible for around 80 percent of lung cancer cases, exposure to secondhand smoke, hazardous substances such as asbestos and coal, as well as genetic predisposition, also contribute significantly to the disease's risk profile. Dr Lee also highlighted that 20 to 30 percent of lung cancer patients in Asia are non-smokers, challenging the common misconception that only smokers are affected, a belief that may lead patients or primary care doctors to delay further testing to determine whether symptoms are related to lung cancer. 'But now, due to advances, firstly in molecular pathology, we are able to run this test called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), which allows us to read the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of the cancer cells and understand them better. 'And this has significantly improved treatment for this type of cancer. So, for example, let's say in a hundred patients of lung cancer that I see, about 50 percent have this genetic change called Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation,' he said.

Caroline Wozniacki announces major personal news one year on from ex Rory McIlroy's divorce drama
Caroline Wozniacki has welcomed her third child with retired NBA forward and husband David Lee, the tennis star has announced. Wozniacki, 35, shared the heartwarming news on Instagram three months after revealing that she and Lee, 42, were expecting another baby. The loved-up couple, who tied the knot back in June 2019 after getting engaged two years earlier, already have a three-year-old daughter, Olivia, and a two-year-old son, James. And the former Australian Open champion announced Saturday that they have expanded their family again following the birth of son Max. Alongside an adorable photo of her two other children holding the newborn baby in their arms, Wozniacki wrote on Instagram: 'Max Wozniacki Lee, born July 26, 2025! Mom and baby are healthy and our family couldnt be happier!' Wozniacki's latest child with Lee, a former NBA All-Star power forward who played for the New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors amongst others, comes almost a year on from ex-fiance Rory McIlroy 's shocking divorce drama. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Caroline Wozniacki (@carowozniacki) McIlroy was in a relationship with the Grand Slam winner for three years before dramatically breaking off their engagement in 2014 after admitting he was not ready for marriage. Three years later he did tie the knot with current wife Erica Stoll. Last year, however, the five-time major champion filed to divorce Stoll after serving her with papers at their home in Florida, only to U-turn on that proposal less than a month later. Rumors suggested that McIlroy had been having some form of a relationship with CBS Sports' Amanda Balionis while they were both out on tour. None of these rumors have been proven and neither Balionis nor McIlroy have outright addressed them. By June, less than a full month after Stoll was served, the filing was withdrawn and the couple have remained together. A sporting super-couple, McIlroy and Wozniacki were together between 2011 and 2013 before he ended the relationship when he said he was not ready for marriage. The duo had sent out wedding invitations after a New Year's Eve proposal in Sydney and Wozniacki posted: 'Happy New Year everyone! Rory and I started 2014 with a bang! I said YES!!!!' But only months later, McIlroy changed his mind. At the time, he put out a statement, reading: 'There is no right way to end a relationship that has been so important to two people. 'The problem is mine. The wedding invitations issued at the weekend made me realise that I wasn't ready for all that marriage entails. 'I wish Caroline all the happiness she deserves and thank her for the great times we've had. I will not be saying anything more about our relationship in any setting.' Wozniacki has since admitted to being stunned at the way in which the break-up was handled. She previously told Graham Bensinger: 'I was shocked. I thought at least I would get a face-to-face or something, but there was nothing. It was a phone call, and I did not hear from him again. It kind of just ended.

David Lee shares vintage photos of his father's cabaret during Chinatown's heyday David Lee with pictures of the Forbidden City cabaret that his father Jimmy Lee ran in the 1950's. Photo by Jason Payne / PNG In its heyday, Vancouver's Chinatown was home to many swinging nightspots, from the Mandarin Gardens to the Shanghai Junk and the Marco Polo.

It was run by his father Jimmy from 1955 to 1959, and featured one of Chinatown's classic neon signs, a spinning neon lion that sat atop neon stating it had 'exquisite cuisine.' Alas, photos from the golden age of Chinatown nightlife are hard to find. But Lee has a treasure trove from his family that he posted on Facebook, where they were recently discovered by a reporter. The photos are a time capsule to another era, when television was still in its infancy and many people still went out to clubs for entertainment.

It looks like Jimmy Lee brought in all sorts of performers, including old vaudeville acts — there's a photo of a female gymnast standing on top of an older guy's head. Another pic is of an elegant guy with a top hat and white dove, which may mean he was a magician. The now 73-year-old Lee was just a child when the Forbidden City was operating, and doesn't remember any of the performers except for ventriloquist Peter Rolston. 'He used to have (his dummy George) propped up in the dressing room,' said Lee. 'As a little kid, I was terrified to walk past that mannequin.'

'It was almost like a Las Vegas atmosphere, (with) all the neon and everything else, all the restaurants,' he said. 'The streets were just bustling with people.'

He also owned the Mayling Club at 422 Main at Pender. Some of the photos are from the Mayling, including one of a musical combo where the guitar player looks like early rock 'n' roll great Eddie Cochran. The Mayling's big moment in the spotlight came in September 1954, when a drug dealer named Danny Brent was killed in the lane behind the Mayling. The Sun's Tom Ardies dubbed it a 'gangland slaying' worthy of a Mickey Spillane 'crime thriller.' 'There's a dead man, the police, hired killers, big-time drug pedlars, an ex-wife, an estranged wife, and a 'toe dancer' out of New York thrown in for good measure,' Ardies wrote.

'There's wild talk of three more men marked to die, of a gangland war, of a doublecross to a Chicago crime syndicate, and of an outwardly respectable businessman tightening an octopus-grip on Vancouver's lucrative drug trade.' Unknown performer from the Forbidden City cabaret at 90 East Pender in Vancouver's Chinatown, circa 1955-59. Courtesy of David Lee Photo by Courtesy of David Lee But Jimmy Lee had nothing to do with it, the murder just happened to be near his cabaret. He was born Lee Yook Jam in Victoria on June 4, 1907, which was anglicized to Jimmy Lee. He moved to Vancouver and was a cook in Chinese restaurants before opening the Mayling Club in late 1948. 'I think he wanted to make his restaurant stand out, so he brought in live entertainment and stuff like that,' said his son. 'I guess it was really popular, so he opened up this second location, which was the Forbidden City. The Forbidden City was supposed to be more upscale, more of a family venue.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The location of the Forbidden City was in the Great Northern Railway's first Vancouver station, which opened at 90 Dupont in 1905. Dupont had a bad reputation (it was home to opium dens and Vancouver's first red light district) and was renamed Pender in 1907. Jimmy Lee sold the Forbidden City to the Louie family, which opened the Marco Polo restaurant there in 1960. It became a cabaret in 1964, and was a success, with big acts like the Fifth Dimension playing there. But it faded with the decline of the cabaret era, and was torn down in 1983. jmackie@ Read More Tennis Local News NFL News News
