ASTRO is deeply disturbed by the inaccurate, inappropriate, and irresponsible NBC News piece on IORT. We feel this story harms care for breast cancer patients & have strongly rebutted it through our Breast Cancer Resource Panel & a letter from ASTRO CEO, Vivek S Kavadi, MD to NBC

Kudos to ASTRO for pushing back on mainstream media misinformation about radiation therapy. This is the exact type of leadership we need at this time in history. Neha Vapiwala astro.org/news-and-publi…

Digital oncology is here to stay. Randomized trial of smartphone assisted follow up shows it prevents deterioration of quality of life in head and neck cancer survivors. Stefano Cavalieri at #ESMO25

1/ Our Nature paper on radiation-induced AREG sparked discussion - and some misinterpretation (nature.com/articles/s4158…). We clarify key points in our new Authors’ View in the Red Journal (IJROBP - The Red Journal). 🧵 Here’s what we actually found — and what we didn’t: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🚨Our new paper is out today in Nature! We show that SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines can sensitize tumors to immune checkpoint blockade (ICI) — revealing that clinically available RNA vaccines may act as potent immune modulators. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Ever wondered which patients get GU adverse events after prostate SBRT? Some pointers here eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

I am genuinely fascinated by the xevinapant (X) story. This drug essentially turns off proteins (IAPs, inhibitor of apoptosis) that themselves turn off apoptosis, hence augmenting apoptosis in cancer cells. Xevinapant functions as a SMAC mimetic, with SMAC an endogenous protein

👏#ETHOS #SimFreeSBRT Our team successfully treated a patient with same-day simulation-free SBRT (16Gyx1) to both lesions. The patient was seen in consultation in the morning and went straight to our reserved sim-free treatment slot. This is the future of palliative/oligomet RT!
