If you have extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and you haven’t started initial treatment, ask your doctor about study S2409 (PRISM). It tests the cancer for certain features to match patients with treatments. SWOG.org/S2409. 1-800-4-CANCER. #LCSM #SCLC

Study S2213 asks if a drug combination known as Dara-VCD or stem cell transplant is better for treating AL #amyloidosis. It tests how well the treatments work, and how they affect quality of life. Learn more at SWOG.org/S2213. Or call 1-800-4-CANCER. #raredisease #clinicaltrial

Are you getting treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer? Ask your doctor about S2427 (BRIGHT). It’s a #ClinicalTrial testing whether an immunotherapy drug plus radiation therapy can help patients keep their bladder. SWOG.org/S2427. 1-800-4-CANCER. #MIBC

What’s the best consolidation tx for patients newly diagnosed with #ALamyloidosis: #StemCellTransplant w melphalan? Or daratumumab + VCD? Trial S2213 also compares minimal residual disease negativity rates.

S2427 (BRIGHT) is a study for people who were treated for muscle invasive #BladderCancer — and the cancer shrunk or can’t be found after treatment. The study asks if a drug plus radiation can help prevent bladder removal. Visit SWOG.org/S2427. Or call 1-800-4-CANCER.

S2409 (the PRISM trial) is a study for people with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). The goal is to match different #SCLC subtypes with the best treatment. Visit SWOG.org/S2409. Or call 1-800-4-CANCER. #LCSM
