Dr. Ryan Zarychanski and Dr. Brett Houston helped lead a landmark Canadian study published in the New England Journal of Medicine. The study found that a low-cost medication can reduce the need for blood transfusions during major surgery without increasing the risk of dangerous clots.

At CCMB, nearly 900 doses of injectable treatments are carefully prepared each week inside a specialized “clean room”. With over 8,000 Manitobans diagnosed with cancer each year, our teams are working together to ensure patients receive the right care, closer to home. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

They call it the clean room. It's where about 900 doses of injectable cancer treatments are compounded each week at the McDermot Avenue building in Winnipeg.

The TRACTION trial—co-led by CancerCare Manitoba researchers presented yesterday at #ASH2025. Findings from 8,400 patients show pre-op tranexamic acid reduces blood transfusion with no increase in blood clots, even in cancer patients. A major step towards safer surgeries and sustainable blood supply

A recent study from our team confirms that isatuximab, a common myeloma treatment— can now be safely delivered in just 30 minutes instead of 75 minutes. Why it matters: quicker appointments, more comfortable experiences, and more capacity to care for Manitobans. #patientcare #cancercare
