GALAXY study (resected liver-limited mCRC analysis):
👉 upfront surgery cohort: ctDNA (+) patents derived OS benefit from ACT, ctDNA (-) showed favorable OS without clear benefit from ACT
👉 “neoadjuvant” cohort: ctDNA (+) remains prognostic

“Will it work?”

“I don't know…

But we have a plan.”

“I don't know” does not mean “I have nothing to offer.” It means “I will not pretend to know when I don't, and I will stand with you in the uncertainty.”

🚨 TIME TOXICITY in Cancer Care ⏰

How much of a patient’s remaining life is spent in hospitals instead of at home? 🏥💔

A first-of-its-kind prospective Indian study (CTRI/2023/05/053281) finds:

🧬 92 patients with advanced cancers
🕰️ Mean time toxicity = 226 hrs / 2 months (~9 days)
⚖️ 17% of life spent in healthcare-related activities
🚗 Travel & waiting time = 🔝 contributors
💉 Only ~1/8 of time adds real treatment value
💡 Higher QoL → lower time toxicity

🎯 Implication: For many with limited survival, time may be the most precious currency.
👉 Oncologists must weigh not only drug toxicity… but time toxicity.

Sometimes we use 30Gy/5, regardless of the reason.
Here’s a great paper showing what kind of local control we can expect in that setting.

Reirradiation (reRT) is reshaping cancer care—offering hope for recurrent tumors w/ advanced precision techniques like IMRT & SBRT. Multidisciplinary care, imaging, and innovation are key.
