The second is about potential fitness costs of cancer drug resistance, and how we might exploit them using approaches like adaptive therapy. (building on our work with @mlockley.bsky.social in ovarian cancer: aacrjournals.org/cancerres/ar...). Description here: www.icr.ac.uk/study-and-ca...
Adaptive Therapy Exploits Fitness Deficits in Chemotherapy-Resistant Ovarian Cancer to Achieve Long-Term Tumor Control
Carboplatin adaptive therapy improves treatment efficacy without increasing daily dose due to reduced fitness of drug-resistant populations, which can be tracked using cfDNA and could direct adaptive ...

Next, Rosa Fernández ( @rosafernandez.bsky.social ), from the EvoMG Program and @ibe-barcelona.bsky.social, gave her flash talk about genome evolution in annelids and how they could be novel models to understand genomic instability events in cancer.
