Adriatic is the new Pacific as durva improves PFS and OS in LS-SCLC! So proud of my mentor Prof. Suresh Senan who lead this effort - lots to unpack here on PCI, RT schedule, and choice of platinum chemo #LCSM #RadOnc David Palma, MD, PhD Ben Slotman Shankar Siva Drew Moghanaki

"What is 'too old' for spine SBRT re: risk of vertebral compression fracture (VCF)?" is something colleagues and I debated at tumor boards on many occasions.

To help the more than 247,000 Canadians this year alone who will be diagnosed with cancer, I was proud to announce an ambitious plan to

Nasser Altorki's team publishes new data investigating the role of preop SBRT for NSCLC. This time, reporting their institutional data comparing preop SBRT-IO vs Chemo-IO. The results demonstrate a significant association with improved RFS at 2 years with SBRT delivered BEFORE

☢️ Finally published the High-Dose Versus Standard-Dose Twice-Daily Thoracic Radiotherapy for LS-SCLC. ✅OS 43.5 versus 22.5 mo, (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.48–0.98, p = 0.037) No more acute or late onset toxicity. ✅ Would you now consider 60 Gy bid the new standard of care? #LCSM
