Congrats to @andyzwang & all fellows inducted to the @AcadofInventors #NAI2026 tonight. Certainly recognizes a lifetime of achievement and innovation for betterment of all humans/society. @UTSW_RadOnc @UTSWMedCenter @OncoAlert @CAHON_hemonc
@asco #ASCO26 — come for the science, stay for the people. Love our connections with friends near & far through the years, tied by common passion to improve outcomes for our patients w cancer. @oncoalert @urotoday @utswcancer @dukegucancer
@PavlosMsaouel @UTMDAnderson w well done investigator initiated study leveraging EGFR expression in #renalmedullary — panitumumab & Abraxane. Very important life work for a rare cancer. @ASCO #ASCO26 @OncoAlert @urotoday
@shilpaonc @ClevelandClinic w #MAINCAV results — Cabo-avelumab vs avelumab in maintenance #bladdercancer. Closed after 10% pts accrued 2/2 EV-pembro landscape changes. Valiant effort from @ALLIANCE_org. #ASCO26 @asco @oncoalert @urotoday
@declangmurphy @PeterMacCC pushes limits of evolution of high risk #prostatecancer as we do space travel. MFS of #PROTEUS is positive &highly powered. Path CR high at 8.9%. May we keep pushing limits of #prostatecancer care. @asco #ASCO26 @OncoAlert @urotoday
#MaryEllenTaplin @DanaFarber_GU with first plenary of the day @asco #ASCO26 — phase 3 of #PROTEUS — >2100 patients w high risk #prostatecancer, adt and apalutamide improved path CR and also a highly powered statistically significant MFS benefit. @oncoalert @urotoday @PCF_Science
Our @utswcancer GU group out in force showing our #CTC work in #bladdercancer! The GU posters are hopping! @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@andyzwang & I look forward to the @ASCO annual meeting each year — learning new cancer data, brainstorming for the future, gathering w friends, & enjoying child free time. Epitome of academic oncology life. Thank you @ASCO #ASCO26 @oncoalert @utswcancer
@neerajaiims @Huntsman_GU with news splashing results of #TALAPRO3, talazoparib-enzalutamide vs enza for metastatic AR pathway sensitive HRR altered #prostatecancer. Practice changing. Concurrent @NEJM pub. Kudos to the team! 👏👏 @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday @oncbrothers
@quimmateo with report of investigator initiated trial of talazoparib-enzalutamide for metastatic #prostatecancer. Even in non HRR altered dz, trend toward improving PFS. Sample size likely too small to show signif. Careful correlative work. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@CaPsurvivorship @DanaFarber_GU reports her many year #ARACOG trial — important objective measures for cognitive changes on darolutamide vs enzalutamide in #prostatecancer. Daro w improved cog fxn vs enza. Important work for ARPI selection. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@AtishChoudhury @DanaFarber_GU reports #ADREAM, a trial of de-intensification for metastatic AR sensitive #prostatecancer. Median 2 years off tx — holding tx is feasible and could be an approach in excellent responders. Sets up #LIBERTAS trial & others. #ASCO26 @oncoalert @asco
@ASCOPres Dr Eric Small delivers a powerful presidential talk — personal tribute to his partner Dr Amy Lin who passed this yr from a rare ovarian cancer. Oncology advancements needed — for every patient. Every cancer. Everywhere. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday @oncbrothers
Opening ceremony @ASCO #ASCO26 Congrats to all the FASCO recipients today!! Saw many Duke, LDP, & GU friends — our cancer field is a great village #strongertogether 🥰 @oncoalert @urotoday @oncbrothers
@Prof_Nick_James with #RAD-IO trial durvalumab added to chemoradiation in #bladdercancer. Great to see the evolution of treatments for bladder preservation. @asco #asco26 @oncoalert @urotoday
Clinical science symposium — toward cures in #kidneycancer #bladdercancer!! Fantastic chairing by @QianJanieQin @utswcancer & @koshkin85 @UCSFCancer @asco #asco26 @oncoalert @urotoday
Fantastic discussion @apolo_andrea @theNCI for past/present/future of nectin4. EV pembro success in #bladdercancer also sets up a new world of challenges for resistance & sequencing approaches. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@IyerGopa @MSKCancerCenter with phase 1 #NEXUS01 of nectin4 delivering topoisomerase inhibitor — ligand is still relevant for some EV-pembro refectory #bladdercancer w responses. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
#YijunShen #FudanUniv (复旦大学)showing periop SHR-A2102 w adebrelimab for muscle invasive #bladdercancer. PathCR rate 48% is close to B15, good to see for the Chinese population. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@RonaldChenMD @KUcancercenter with full quality of life results from #AMBASSADOR trial adjuvant pembro vs placebo. More dyspnea long term but did not affect overall function. Will be monitoring for our patients on adj IO in clinic. @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday
@MVossMD @MSKCancerCenter with comprehensive discussion of bone mets, ctDNA and non clear #kidneycancer. Lots to cover — Well done! #ASCO26 @asco @oncoalert @urotoday @utswcancer
#JunruChen #HaoZeng from West China (华西)share data for non-clear cell #kidneycancer treated w new bispecific cadonilimab w axitinib. High responses in FH deficient #kidneycancer. @asco @oncoalert @urotoday @utswcancer
@DrChoueiri presents first biomarker work from #keynote564 — ctDNA positive group only n=60 treated but poor prognosis begs question who to escalate?? And who in neg-neg group may we de-escalate treatment? @asco #ASCO26 @oncoalert @urotoday @utswcancer
@DrRanaMcKay showcases #RADICAL results — 1st randomized radiopharmaceutical trial in #kidneycancer w bone mets, tx cabozantinib vs cabo-radium223. Closed early but important work for patients. Glad to participate @utswcancer. @asco #asco26 @oncoalert @urotoday @ALLIANCE_org
Good morning Chicago! Kidney/bladder orals today Friday @asco #ASCO26!! Looking forward to seeing the wins for our patients with cancer, networking, and considering new trials that will make a difference. Here for all of it!! @oncoalert @utswcancer @urotoday
