Patients with locally advanced #rectalcancer now have options— outcomes in the #PROSPECT trial were non-inferior for forgoing radiation ☢️ vs. standard chemoradiation. Kudos to Deborah Schrag and the study team on this important plenary data!!! #ASCO23
Finding the right treatment when living with a health condition like chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) can be challenging. Learn how Al navigated his CML treatment journey and found the right fit for him.

Really enjoyed yesterday’s talk by UT Center for Computational Oncology member David Hormuth during the #ISMRM23 Evaluating Therapeutic Response session: “Effect of chemoradiation on high-grade gliomas can be forecasted by mid-treatment images via image-driven mathematical modeling”. Cool stuff!
Great talk and noteworthy results presented by dr Elena Palassini today at #ASCO2023 #sarcoma oral abstract session.

Meg Madison Thanks!
I hope your chemoradiation is going as well as can be. Very tough days 💙

Squeezebox Best wishes to BOTH of you! I see that by itself, chemo rarely cures esophageal cancer so it is often given with radiation therapy (called chemoradiation); Is that what he's going to be treated with?
