The personalised vaccine, intismeran autogene, is being tested alongside Merck’s Keytruda in melanoma patients. The combination reduced the risk of recurrence or death by 42% compared with Keytruda alone. It also cut the risk of the cancer spreading to distant parts of the body or death by 38%. After two years, about 82% of patients given the vaccine and Keytruda were alive…

Stevie Wonder is suing Carmen Efferson in an attempt to evict her from a Los Angeles property he owns, alleging she has lived there rent-free for almost four decades. Court documents state that Ms Efferson moved into the home in July 1988 under a verbal arrangement with no written lease and no monthly rent. Wonder claims the agreement has now ended. The singer’s legal team allegedly tried several times during the summer to enter the property for an insurance inspection, but says Ms Efferson refused to allow access. Lawyers for Wonder say the lack of access put the property’s insurance…

Judi Dench has said her worsening eye condition means she can no longer read, act on stage or make films. The 91-year-old Oscar-winning actor, who was diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in 2012, made the comments during an interview with BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. “I can’t be on stage. I can’t do a play anymore. I can’t do a film anymore. I can’t read anymore,” Dench said. AMD affects the ability to see directly in front of the person affected.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has urged Vivek Ramaswamy to withdraw a campaign ad featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic rival, Amy Acton, calling her daughter a liar. Mr DeWine, a Republican who is barred from seeking another term, said the advert was “on its face, deeply, deeply troubling”. He added that knowledge of allegations of abuse and neglect in Ms Acton’s family background made it “even more wrong”. “It’s wrong to run this ad,” Mr DeWine told reporters. “I would urge Ramaswamy’s campaign to take this down.” He declined to say whether he had spoken directly to the Ramaswamy…

Ross Kemp was murdered in plain sight on Celebrity Traitors after falling into a yawning trap set by Maya Jama and James Acaster, before Jerry Hall was banished from the castle hours later. The EastEnders actor and the American supermodel had been caught in the Traitors’ latest scheme, which required them to make a Faithful yawn by subjecting them to deliberately dull conversation. Ross was the first to yawn. After inhaling the show’s ‘deadly sleeping powder’, James confirmed the murder by asking: “Sorry Ross, am I boring you?” Ross then opened an envelope which stated: “Dear Ross, by order of…

Donald Trump has backed Vivek Ramaswamy after the Ohio governor candidate faced bipartisan backlash over an attack advert targeting his opponent, Amy Acton. The advert features Acton’s estranged mother calling her a liar over allegations of abuse. Acton’s stepfather was charged with raping her when she was a child, while her mother was married to him, according to the claims outlined in the campaign controversy. Trump said the criticism of the advert amounted to a “concerted and well-coordinated attack” by the press. He urged Ramaswamy to continue broadcasting the mother’s comments. Writing on Truth Social, Trump said: “I suggested, on…

Ryan Gravenberch could be deployed at right-back when Liverpool return to Premier League action against Brighton this weekend, with manager Andoni Iraola weighing up his options after Tuesday’s 4-3 Champions League win over Villarreal. The Netherlands international is available again after serving a domestic suspension and started in an advanced midfield role against the Spanish side. However, Florian Wirtz is expected to return to the number 10 position after making a significant impact in the second half. That could force Gravenberch to compete for a deeper midfield place or move into the backline. A report has suggested Iraola is considering…
