The National Comprehensive Cancer Network pledges to update robust information resources for cancer patients and caregivers on an annual basis in both English and Spanish.

PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Feb. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®)—an alliance of leading cancer centers based in the United States—and the NCCN Foundation® is honoring World Cancer Day with an announcement about more frequent updates to its free educational resources intended to empower shared decision-making.

Learn more about NCCN's World Cancer Day patient information announcement at NCCN.org/wcd.

World Cancer Day is an international day observed every February 4th to raise awareness about cancer, encourage its prevention, and mobilize action. The day is led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC)—of which NCCN is a member. This is the second year of the “United by Unique” campaign to place people at the center of care and their stories at the heart of the conversation.

“We are so happy to be announcing, on World Cancer Day, that all of our comprehensive patient information books will now be updated once a year, and be made available in English and Spanish,” said Crystal S. Denlinger, MD, Chief Executive Officer, NCCN. “At NCCN, we recognize that every person is unique in their experience with cancer and their individual circumstances, hopes, needs, and priorities. At the same time, we all stand united in our need for factual, trustworthy information to guide us towards our best possible outcome.”

Dr. Denlinger continued: “The NCCN Guidelines for Patients are based on the essential, evidence-based, expert consensus-driven guidelines that providers rely on all over the world to stay current on the very latest in cancer care. These award-winning resources present all of the treatment options in plain language, with pictures, a glossary, and suggested questions to ask, so patients and caregivers can make informed choices that are best for them in collaboration with their health care team.”

The library of NCCN Guidelines for Patients® includes more than 70 different guidebooks covering cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and supportive care for nearly every type of cancer. Each book contains vetted information explaining every step of the care journey from diagnosis through survivorship in language that is easy to understand.

All NCCN Guidelines for Patients® are available for free download online at NCCN.org/patients or by app thanks to funding from the NCCN Foundation®.

The NCCN Guidelines for Patients contain the same information as the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) used by clinicians daily, which have been independently found to be associated with better outcomes, longer survival, and lower costs. The patient guidelines help everyone get on the same page, ensuring all are aware of any treatment choices available, enabling patients to advocate for their own best care. In 2025, the patient guidelines were utilized by more than 2.1 million people and downloaded more than 2.6 million times.

For 2026, NCCN is accelerating the publication schedule to make sure every book is updated annually to keep up with the changing field of cancer care, with 100% available in more than one language. As of World Cancer Day, 81% of the books are available in both English and Spanish, with another 11 languages represented across various topics.

“If knowledge is power, we want to put that power in the hands of every person who needs it—whether they have been diagnosed with cancer themselves, have a friend, colleague, or loved one who’s been diagnosed, or are just looking for more information on prevention and screening before cancer symptoms occur,” said Patrick Delaney, Executive Director of the NCCN Foundation. “We are also happy to work with employers as well as faith-based and community leaders to help them provide comfort and support to anyone in their network who may be dealing with this difficult disease.”

SOTOL ROMO OFFICIALLY LAUNCHES DURING SUPER BOWL WEEK IN SAN FRANCISCO

Sotol Romo Bottle

An ultra-premium sotol made from 100% Dasylirion debuts as industry buzz builds around sotol as the next major Mexican spirit after tequila and mezcal.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Sotol Romo, an ultra-premium Mexican spirit made from 100% Dasylirion (sotol), will make its global launch during Super Bowl Week in San Francisco, introducing what experts describe as the third pillar of Mexican spirits: tequila, mezcal, and sotol.

Sotol Romo Bottle

Produced in Chihuahua, Mexico, and crafted as Sotol 100% Puro, Sotol Romo is made from 100% Dasylirion cedrosanum, a wild desert plant native to the Sierra Madre that takes 15–20 years to mature. During this slow growth, the plant develops its sugars naturally, requiring far less manipulation or correction after distillation and no additives.

The spirit is organic, sustainable, artisanal, kosher, and additive-free, crafted with just plant and water, resulting in a cleaner, leaner, and more precise profile.

“Sotol Romo is a treasure of the Sierra Madre,” said Claudia Romo Edelman, Founder and CEO of Sotol Romo, a globally recognized marketer, mobilizer, and brand builder. “It comes from a plant that survives where little else does and grows slowly under the harshest conditions. Like great wine or diamonds, the more challenging nature is, the more exceptional the result. I’m proud to introduce a pure, elegant spirit from northern Mexico to a global consumer who wants the best — and what comes next.”

The liquid profile was perfected by Richard Betts, one of the most respected figures in modern Mexican spirits. “Compared to mezcal, sotol is lighter, more elegant, and less smoky or forceful. It allows more space for subtle flavors and balance. Compared to tequila, it feels more aromatic and refined, with a clearer expression of the land. Mezcal was the dress rehearsal. Sotol can be bigger, faster,” said Betts.

The brand will be unveiled in full on Friday, February 6, with the first public presentation of the bottle, liquid tasting, and the launch of SotolRomo.com, featuring a comprehensive sotol educational library and the trailer for The Ascent, a new podcast by Sotol Romo spotlighting leaders in sports, fashion, music, and business as they reflect on their personal ascent.

“Sotol Romo is entering a burgeoning category experiencing rapid growth with a number of unfair advantages,” said Joe Marchese, co-founder of Casa Komos Brands Group. “Beyond an exceptional liquid and a beautiful bottle inspired by the Sierra Madre, Sotol Romo has the infrastructure to scale, capital raised, and a built-in global network and marketing expertise to accelerate growth and become the category-defining expression of sotol.”

The Super Bowl — headlined this year by Bad Bunny — provides a powerful cultural moment for the launch, following early buzz generated in Davos, where Sotol Romo was poured daily among global CEOs and decision-makers. Sotol Romo will also be served across multiple private events throughout Super Bowl Week.

Sotol Romo will be priced in accessible luxury, with a suggested retail price of $79 for Blanco and $89 for Reposado. Market intelligence estimates the global sotol market revenue at $1.2 billion, with expectations to triple by 2033 at a CAGR of 13.5% (Market Info).

“My dream is to make Sotol known around the world — not in decades, but in years — and to help bring jobs and opportunity to little-known and still undiscovered regions of Northern Mexico, the way tequila and mezcal did for the south,” concluded Romo Edelman.

Commercial market entry is planned for New York and Texas in Spring 2026.

About Sotol Romo

Sotol Romo is an ultra-premium expression of sotol made from 100% Dasylirion cedrosanum and bottled as Sotol 100% Puro. Additive-free and crafted with just plant and water, Sotol Romo represents Mexican modern luxury. Sotol Romo, produced in Chihuahua, Mexico, is founded by Claudia Romo Edelman and created as a joint venture with Casa Komos Brands Group, whose distribution footprint spans 50 states and 40 countries.

Nation’s First Cardiac Arrhythmia-Focused Healthcare Network Launches with New Mexico’s First ASC-Based Ablation Procedures

Current Clinic launches specialized care model for AFib patients; completes inaugural cardiac ablation procedures in Carlsbad ambulatory surgery center

CARLSBAD, N.M., Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Current Clinic announced Thursday last week the successful completion of its first cardiac ablation procedures, marking a historic milestone as the nation’s first healthcare network focused on cardiac arrhythmia care. The procedures performed January 28-30th, 2026, at Current Clinic’s Carlsbad, New Mexico location, also represent the first cardiac ablations ever performed in an ambulatory surgery center setting in New Mexico.

Current Clinic’s innovative model centers specialized arrhythmia expertise within comprehensive cardiovascular care facilities, enabling patients to access the complete continuum of AFib treatment—from initial diagnosis through advanced interventional procedures and ongoing management—in an efficient, cost-effective ambulatory setting.

The inaugural procedures utilized Boston Scientific’s FARAPULSE system, which employs pulsed field ablation (PFA) technology to treat atrial fibrillation. Clinical studies have demonstrated that 78% of patients achieve freedom from AFib following PFA treatment, with reduced risks of stroke and heart failure when performed early in the disease progression.

By performing cardiac ablation in an ambulatory surgery center rather than a hospital, Current Clinic can offer faster access to procedures and lower costs while maintaining the highest standards of safety and clinical outcomes. The facility’s comprehensive interventional cardiology capabilities ensure that patients receive complete cardiovascular care when needed, all within the same specialized network.

“Southeastern New Mexico has never had local access to cardiac ablation,” said Dr. Amanda Ryan, Current Clinic Carlsbad’s Medical Director and Interventional Cardiologist. “Our patients faced hours of travel to Albuquerque, El Paso, or Lubbock for treatment. We’re not just bringing this procedure closer to home, we’re building a complete arrhythmia care program that follows patients through their entire treatment journey.”

Current Clinic’s Carlsbad location serves as the flagship for a planned national network of arrhythmia-focused care centers. In addition to the main facility, Current Clinic operates outreach clinics in Hobbs and Artesia, New Mexico, ensuring comprehensive access throughout the region. Each location combines specialized arrhythmia expertise with complete interventional cardiology services, creating a sustainable model for delivering advanced cardiac care in communities of all sizes.

The ASC-based approach represents a fundamental shift in how advanced cardiac procedures can be delivered. Historically, cardiac ablation has been confined to hospital settings, creating access barriers for patients in smaller markets and driving up healthcare costs. Current Clinic’s model proves that specialized arrhythmia care can be delivered safely and effectively in an outpatient setting, opening the door for expansion into underserved markets nationwide.

“This is about changing the economics and accessibility of advanced cardiac care,” said Kai Worrell, Current Clinic’s founder and CEO. “We’re proving that an arrhythmia-focused network can deliver excellent outcomes in an ASC setting. Now we’re ready to replicate this model in communities across the country that deserve access to specialized AFib care.”

Current Clinic’s care model integrates state-of-the-art cardiac catheterization labs, advanced imaging capabilities, and electrophysiology equipment with streamlined pre- and post-procedure workflows optimized for the ASC environment. This combination of specialized focus, comprehensive capabilities, and operational efficiency enables clinical outcomes comparable to major academic centers while maintaining the cost and patient experience advantages of ambulatory care.

About Current Clinic

Current Clinic is the first healthcare network in the United States focused on atrial fibrillation and cardiac arrhythmia care. Through its innovative ambulatory surgery center-based model, Current Clinic provides patients with access to specialized arrhythmia expertise, the most advanced cardiac ablation technologies, and comprehensive cardiovascular services in a convenient, cost-effective outpatient setting. Founded on the principles of evidence-based care, patient accessibility, and healthcare affordability, Current Clinic is expanding its network of specialized cardiac care centers to underserved communities across the country.
