Somnath Mukherjee discussing the results of the SCOPE 2 PET-CT phase 2 study at #ESTRO23. A switch from Cis-Cap to carbonation paclitaxel in day 14 PET metabolic non responders was associated with inferior outcomes. Proud my job enables me to take part in this trial.

@ClareLivesey @SamanthaBostoc3 Yes - flight overbooked and they couldn't guarantee me a seat until 45mins before take off!

A very early flight followed by a lovely afternoon with @SamanthaBostoc3 exploring Vienna. Looking forward to #ESTRO23 starting tomorrow.

Great 1st evening at #ESTRO23 especially Prof Grau discussing proton trials. Really interested to find out more about the PROTECT trial comparing photon vs proton outcome for oesophageal tumours.
