Accelerated 177Lu-PSMA-617 protocol tested in #STAMPEDE2. @minal_pm & @Prof_Nick_James join @zklaassen_md to discuss the STAMPEDE2 trial Arm P, exploring upfront accelerated lutetium-PSMA-617 for #mHSPC. This trial could reveal crucial insights into dosing, PSMA expression, and biomarkers, with key endpoints of rPFS and OS > https://t.co/KgHM7tSdg4

@ally_bally1 @implausibleblog I really like how he owned the claims and invited them to attend his coffee mornings. Agree @implausibleblog I think he keeps it honest and cordial. It’s a really refreshing and elegant approach.
Highlighted to watch the LD political broadcast by @GeorgeOsborne@edballs on their podcast, political currency. It’s refreshing to watch a different kinder way of doing politics. Ed Davey seems like a genuinely nice man. And agree whoever wins, needs to support our social care.
Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.
Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.
Very interesting data - risk of increase in CV events not restricted to abiraterone - is a class effect with AR targeting, over and above the known risks with ADT alone
@RhonddaBryant Sorry to hear this Chris! By far one of my favourite politicians and I hope you can use this as motivation to support the people in the NHS and cancer research when you are better. Really amazing to see such honesty, passion and energy in your posts. It’s truly refreshing.
Big milestone for STAMPEDE2 - our first Site Initiation Visit @royalmarsdenNHS. Behind the scenes look at how we do these important projects @MRCCTU @ICR_London@TrialsTribsPod
As long as the community, which often is medoncs discussing radiopharm, as ‘dose’ we are doomed to not make progress. Pains me this basic rad physics 101 terminology is not even known. Now nuc med, who 100% knows the difference, is saying ‘dose’ to over simplify, when they know it is ‘activity’.
End of the day this is ionizing radiotherapy and dose to tumor matters for cell kill. Giving same activity for someone with 2 bone Mets vs 100 bone Mets is giving very different doses to normal and tumor.
These are not simple drugs like ARPI or chemo. @US_FDA needs to have greater flexibility for more personalized activity and dosimetry.
I encourage @DrMHofman@thomashopemd Herrmann, Emmett, and others to force the clinical community to adapt to appropriate terminology so we can make progress. If the ordering providers of RLT can’t understand this difference they shouldn’t be giving it.
