@annaminchom.bsky.social on newer small cell therapeutic strategies and management of CRS and ICANS as specific TRAEs With thought around timings of dose delivery and education of AOS teams and patients, safely deliverable within the NHS

With the successful role out of the TLHC programme, we now have a growing cohort of stage 1 SCLC patients. Hopefully this will become even more common, and work needed to understand optimal patient management @drjnaidoo.bsky.social #BTOG25

Small cell in never smokers. On the rise for unknow reasons and a different biology. Having recently encountered my first patient who’s a never smoker(and no alcohol or recreational drugs), with extensive stage disease this insight is fascinating @stephenvliu.bsky.social #BTOG25

@drjnaidoo.bsky.social on the limited stage small cell space and the excitement around CCRT-Durvalumab. EAMS currently open in England… #BTOG25

@stephenvliu.bsky.social on excitement in the Small Cell arena. PDL1/PD1 inhibition a practice changer, but so many potential game changers on the horizon from BITES To ADC, it’s exciting to see new drugs for an area of unmet need #BTOG25

Debra Montague on ensuring the patient voice is not lost. The most important person in the room after all!

We haven’t lost the patient voice but we all need to be better at listening!

Caught the most amazing sunrise en route to the #BTOG25 5km… there are some benefits to wandering the streets at 6:30am 🤣

Sandi Deans in delivering a 14 day genomics service, and the impact of the ctDNA pilots and roll out in potential time saving. CtDNA now pending addition to the Directory @BTOG25

In 2018, with Tom Newsom-Davis, I wrote a chapter on novel immune check point targets for the ACP book ‘Problem Solving In Cancer Immunotherapy’. It’s fab to sit here and know my research wasn’t too far off and these targets now have drugs! Shobhit Baijal on ‘beyond PDL1/PD1 #BTOG25

Nicola Steele on the radical EGFRm arena - ADAURA-NEOADAURA-LAURA and a cheeky bit of PACIFIC. Targeted treatment sees gains across the board, and given PACIFIC data, LAURA a key trail. Needs desecration criteria to aid reimbursement? #BTOG25

Jan von der Thusen on the challenge of ADC biomarkers

Biological validity: expression levels. What about tumoural heterogeneity? The impact of initial therapy on target antigen levels?

Prof Samreen Ahmed on ADCs and why they fail (or succeed - the utility of bystander functionality interesting) #BTOG25

The HER2 TKIs - EGFR TKIs not especially efficacious. First more selective HER2 TKIs - similar with high risk of grade 3 toxicity, aligned with what we saw with 1G and 2G EGFR TKIs. Zongertinib looking interest g from a response and TRAE point #BTOG25

Please do check out Roxane Chen’s (my iBSc student - a medical student) poster on pan-immune inflammation scoring and outcomes in ALK positive lung cancer.

She worked so hard, and has been rewarded with the first abstract in the book, so no excuses not to engage, people! ❤️

No 1!! 🏅

@drpeedell.bsky.social I hope you’ve got your @btog.bsky.social on! And I hope it’s mostly fluorescent pink!!

I love @btog.bsky.social I am absolutely NOT telling Mr11 though… he has school!!!

Small things help break down barriers for working parents! Kudos!

I just had a panicked 5 minute hunt for my favourite vegetable peeler.

Let that sink in.

That’s how rock and roll my life is… 🤣😂🤣

Here’s Mr11’s Christmas Cake all ready for tomorrow…

Happy Christmas, BlueSkylets!

Today’s ward round was just incredibly zen. I can’t quite put my finger on why… ❤️🎼🎵❤️
