@HKhosroyani Hi Homma! I came across a recent paper you were on in Nature Reviews on GIST treatment and had a question - in the past few years, how often do patients progress to later lines of therapy? (3L+)

[Sonia Rao, PhD @Thesrao]

@drymtn @OHSUsurgery @ThomasSuttonMD @OHSUKnight @GistLab @ctosociety @AnnSurgOncol @Liferaftgroup @GISTNetwork This is really interesting. I wonder, is it more likely now compared to 2-3 years ago that a GIST patient will only receive two lines of therapy during their care?

[Sonia Rao, PhD @Thesrao]

The answer is yes

What is most appealing about switching to Carvykti in 5L+ RRMM? #MMSM @VincentRK @HenrychihangFu1 @End_myeloma @SagarLonialMD @bdermanmd @RahulBanerjeeMD @mvmateos @ManniMD1 @ninashah33

[Sonia Rao, PhD @Thesrao]

@DrPaulyDeSantis every time I look at either, I feel like I have to re-read the whole study

[Sonia Rao, PhD @Thesrao]

Congrats to my former lab! Really cool stuff, nice job Jim!

The historic building on South Rampart that housed the Karnofsky pawn shop, where a young Louis Armstrong was employed in the 1910s, has collapsed under the strain of #HurricaneIda .

Gut wrenching video out of Grand Isle Louisiana just minutes ago as Hurricane Ida approaches landfall. Winds absolutely screaming and hearing reports of 140+mph gusts. Significant storm surge occurring and water is rapidly rising. Vid Credit John Humphress/Severestudios.com

Not gonna lie, I didn't have high hopes for plinabulin. Glad I was proven wrong
