Proud to see our PhD student, @MostafaIHA, present his work on the single-cell and spatial landscape of RCC brain metastases @OSUCCC_James@OhioStatePIIO@Pelotonia.
Using single-nucleus RNA-seq, spatial transcriptomics, and computational biology, his research explores mechanisms of immune dysfunction and therapeutic resistance in CNS metastases.
Excited to see this work advance our understanding of brain metastasis biology and precision oncology.

What an amazing experience connecting with @AndreaNecchi in our mentor-mentee program! 🌟 Your perspective on the future of precision oncology has expanded my vision in ways I didn’t expect. Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge and opening new doors.
Excited to share our upcoming presentations at #ASCO2026 from the @HasanovLab@OhioStatePIIO and collaborators.
This year, our team will present 12 studies spanning:
https://t.co/jlGQZKe0vq
🤖 AI/ML precision oncology
🧠 RCC brain metastasis biology
🧫 Spatial & single-cell transcriptomics
🌎 Real-world outcomes research with ML models
💻 In silico clinical trial modeling
These projects reflect our 💻 #CodetoClinic 👩⚕️👨⚕️translational framework, integrating computational oncology, multi-omics, and clinical research to advance precision cancer care.
Grateful to our incredible trainees, collaborators, patients, and mentors who made this work possible. https://t.co/8SlON6F4d0

🎯 Paradigm shift in unresectable HCC treatment!
A new editorial by Prof. Masatoshi Kudo @KudoM_Kindai highlights why we MUST rethink stopping treatment at the first RECIST-defined PD (published in Liver Cancer @ResearchKarger).
👉 Continuous sequential Triple Therapy (ICI + Anti-VEGF/TKI + On-demand TACE) is a game-changer.
👉 Don't stop at first RECIST-defined PD! Continue systemic therapy & repeat TACE until "unTACEable progression" occurs.
👉 This strategy maximizes Deep Response (DpR) and opens the door to curative conversion surgery (Cancer-free & Drug-free status!).

It’s that time of the year again! #ESMOBreast26 is only a few days away, and promises to bring new important data in breast oncology. This year’s key themes: tailoring therapy for HER2+ eBC, prospective data with ADC sequencing, use of MRD to guide treatment. See you in Berlin!
🚨 FDA’s take on SERENA-6 is basically this:
“Nice data… but are we helping patients?”
Let’s break it down 👇
🧠 Problem 1: Wrong question
Trial asks:
👉 Switch early vs don’t switch
But real-world question is:
👉 Switch early vs switch later
FDA:
❌ “You didn’t answer the real question.”
⏱️ Problem 2: The PFS illusion
PFS looks great (16 vs 9.2 months)
But… it starts from:
👉 ESR1 mutation detection (not progression)
FDA:
❓ “What does this PFS even mean clinically?”
🧬 Problem 3: Biology mismatch
We assume: ESR1 mutation = resistance
FDA says:
👉 Not so fast
Patients may still benefit from AI + CDK4/6i
even AFTER mutation appears
👉 Early switch = stopping a working drug
🔁 Problem 4: No second chance
Control arm never got camizestrant later ❌
So we don’t know:
👉 Early vs delayed use
FDA:
❌ “This comparison is incomplete”
📉 Problem 5: Where is survival benefit?
OS = immature
Final data → years away
FDA:
👉 “Without OS, paradigm shift is risky”
⚠️ Problem 6: Not risk-free
QT prolongation
Bradycardia
Rare TdP
👉 Not a harmless switch
🎯 FDA’s real message:
“Just because we can act early…
doesn’t mean we should.”

#ASCO26 is coming up!
With abstracts released I put together a top 10 (ok, top 12) GI abstracts I'm excited for.
Some things might fall off (or be added) pending full abstract text, but these are what I'm watching for and might be practice changing or scientifically interesting.

2000’lerin başında Onkolojiye başladığımda met khd akciğer kanseri hastalarının OS ≈ 8-10 aydı. 2010 gibi 1-2 çalışmada sağlanan 1 yıl OS büyük haber oldu. Şimdi en kötü tipinde 2. basamakta PFS>11 ay. En çok ölüme neden olan kanseri, insanlık altetmek üzere, umutluyuz 🤗
Dr. @riess_md at #AACR26 updates RMC-9805 (zoldonrasib) in KRAS G12D NSCLC. Very impressive. G12D is a particular need in lung cancer as many patients have no smoking history and do not fare as well with immunotherapy. Zoldonrasib is a mutant selective, RAS(ON) inhibitor.
RevMed absolutely stole the show at AACR with their Pan-RAS and G12D inhibitors.
First line panc, second line NSCLC, even in early trials this is extremely compelling data.
2L NSCLC anti G12D (early data):
PFS: 11 months
ORR: 52%
G3 AEs: 13%
(Now compare that to 10 months with Osimertinib in 2L NSCLC)…
This can’t be FDA approved soon enough.
