Seems to be a pattern here. The systematic individual data meta analysis of HIpECT4 and COLoPEC demonstrate strongest efficacy also in right-sided tumors.

The most practice changing trial from #ASCO25 is now live on NEJM .If this was a drug, this would be approved today. Globally relevant and low-cost intervention that is not only delaying relapse but actually improving survival. Perfect case example of a #cancergroundshot trial.
