@DrEdKim @modrnhealthcr @cityofhopeoc Congratulations!

The COVID numbers continue to get worse.

Shown here, an illustration combining Atrium Health, @CaroMontHealth and @NovantHealth hospitals in the Charlotte area. We, along with healthcare system across the country, ask you to please get vaccinated. https://t.co/sFYESAYBpH

Immunotherapy works for a subset of pts with angiosarcoma. Thanks to the pts and to the overall DART leaders @Dr_R_Kurzrock @PatelOncology @SWOG for making this study happen! @jitcancer @fredhutch @SeattleCCA

[SPAGN @sarcomapatients]

#PatientInvolvement in #research, especially in rare diseases like sarcomes, is important! Why? Let Roger Wilson and Dr. Olga Husson explain! Watch our video and learn more here: https://t.co/7SPvlxLO9O

There are between 50 and 100 documented subtypes of sarcoma. This makes an already rare cancer even more challenging for drug development and research. Post a picture holding a sign with your subtype so we can spread awareness about the many different subtypes. #CureSarcoma

Today is Leiomyosarcoma Awareness Day. Leiomyosarcoma is a rare type of cancer that affects smooth muscle tissue. Learn about pathologic findings, patterns of growth and common imaging features of retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma in @RadioGraphics. https://t.co/ePHZtdnQt7

[Susan Udelson @SusanUdelson]

@Sarcoma_UK Did you do your own survey to determine that 75% people don’t know what sarcoma is? Or did you find that statistic elsewhere? Interesting but not shocking either!

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

Happy #Sarcoma Awareness Month! Wear your T-shirts and sunflower jewelry. Maybe we need pins that say, "Ask me about sarcoma."

2. People with ASS1 negative tumors were the most likely to respond. "The activity is tantalizing," Dr. Bob Benjamin said. 3 people with #leiomyosarcoma got a complete response. A phase 3 trial is in development. #ASCO21 #sarcoma

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

1. @bvantine1's phase 2 trial of ADI-PEG20 found it can be safely & effectively given with a dose of 600mg/m2 #gemcitabine + 60mg/m2 #docetaxel to patients with soft-tissue #sarcoma. #leiomyosarcoma #ASCO21 https://t.co/W3teulhzIX https://t.co/DGUEkdCUGL

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

.@OhioState researchers looked at the #microbiome in #sarcoma tumors. They found microbes associated with worse survival, including ones particular to #leiomyosarcoma & dedifferentiated #liposarcoma. #ASCO21 https://t.co/9EEdFtDTeO

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

I'm so glad the paywall has been removed from this important study by @Thalcin @ProfDMThomas & colleagues on global #disparities in #sarcoma. https://t.co/HYKWFNGqIP

The #CTOS2021 meeting will be Nov 10-13 in Vancouver. It will be virtual, but @ctosociety hopes to have an in-person component. @WinanvanHoudt is program chair, with co-chairs: Liz Demicco, @ylc2001 & @ManuPalmerini. Abstract submission is open: https://t.co/DURjwioHE1 #sarcoma

The @SarcomaAlliance is upping its grants from $500 to $1,000 to reimburse people who get a second opinion from a #sarcoma specialist. https://t.co/0aYVNaupJZ

[Broad Institute @broadinstitute]

Broad, @DanaFarber, and @count_me_in launch research projects in two rare cancers, with focus on optimizing patient engagement; efforts aim to reveal rare cancer's genetic roots, mechanisms of drug resistance, and potential new treatment strategies. https://t.co/8XyVBV6Hj1

@NCEmergency

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

Is it OK for a woman with uterine #leiomyosarcoma to see only a gyn oncologist? @breelynwilkyMD recommended at least 1 consultation with a #sarcoma medical oncologist. She said @CUCancerCenter lets women see both. (I think that should be true everywhere.) #WomenInSarcoma

[Suzie Siegel @SuzieSiegel]

This paper calls for more involvement of patients to understand side effects from #immunotherapy. #Sarcoma patients: Please report any problems! You're not bothering doctors & nurses. They need to know what's up.

[CTOS @ctosociety]

At #CTOS2020 we’re excited to introduce LIVE multidisciplinary discussions of clinical cases in GIST, Soft Tissue Sarcomas, and Bone #Sarcomas in our “Meet-the Experts” sessions. Counting down the weeks until annual!
