Poor EBRT responders (HRCTV > 30cc) warrants IC+ISBT from 1st fraction. Outcome of 141 LACC pts from TMH. 👍🏼 doi.org/10.1016/j.brac…

Bounce (defined as an increase > 0.2 ng/mL) following ultra hypofrac #radiotherapy, is frequent (36%) & associated with improved prognosis. Data from HYPO RT PC at #ESTRO25 Possible bias (bounces by definition have a decrease in PSA after the rise) role of 3y landmark analysis

🔥⚡️🚀 First prospective comparison of SBRT vs HDR-BT in prostate cancer (SHERBET study): SBRT shows superior long-term efficacy & lower BCF. Two-fraction HDR-BT w/o ADT? Only in trials for intermediate-risk pts. Great work from Sunnybrook team! #RadOnc #GU25 Dr. Andrew Loblaw

Hope this would soon be the SOC for nodal fields too shortly, saving #outofpocketexpenses, #carbonsavings .One should give credit to Prof John Yarnold who STARTed this revolution in breast hypofractionation. #HYPORTtrial TMC Radiation Oncology Tata Medical Center

Big news from #ESTRO25! Nivolumab + CRT shows striking improvement in MIBC outcomes for patients not undergoing RC! BCFFS: 70.3% vs 43.4% OS at 2y: 86.8% vs 60.5% (p=0.005) Well tolerated + good onc outcomes = a game-changer? Time for Phase III trial! #TMT #MIBC #immunotherapy

1/ #ESTRO2025 FAST FORWARD 10 year breast cancer results are out 40 Gy/15 fx vs 27/5 fx vs 26/5 Most women were >50y and T1N0 low risk The recurrence rate at 10y for the 26 Gy arm: 2.0% This is an INSANELY low number for risk of (any) cancer coming back To put in context:
