Presenting the UK’s SARON study Dr @fifimcdrmh to a full hall at #ESMO26
In patients with de novo oligometastatic mutation driver negative #NSCLC , consolidation radiotherapy to the primary and metastases improved PFS but no OS
No significant difference in QOL or AEs
Huge thanks to all the patients and trialists involved
Final day #RANZCR26 There's a great #FROGG session on bladder cancer Dr Ashutosh Dixit shares the #Christchurch experience of implementing #BCON 👏🏽🥳
Now all bladders have option of radiosensitisation @syeepei #WhereisHoskin @MCRCnews @RT_physics @RANZCRcollege @FacRadOncology

Every cancer organ gets the same sequence: surgery is the standard, then trials show you often don't need it, then surgery becomes the salvage.
Breast, larynx, limb, rectum, esophagus, mesothelioma.
Bladder is next. Patients want their organs. 🧵

Could changes in local bacteria and immunity be to blame for the development of colorectal cancer? This new study examines this relationship.

#ASTRO2026
What if radioresistance in bladder cancer is dynamic, shaped by tumor-intrinsic biology, hypoxia and the TME? @achoud72 presented pre-clinical work challenging this paradigm:
🔹Acquired resistance implicated RAD51C, VTN & MYL9
🔹Hypoxia screens identified STAMBP & YAP1 as response modifiers
🔹 Hypoxic tumors showed substantial CNV burden, particularly on chr9
🔹3D tumor-like models are integrating matrix stiffness, tumor genomics & immune cells to better recreate RT response

Pick any medical specialty other than your own. Who’s the most famous physician in it? You probably can’t name one.
Almost none of us will be known outside our field, and even those who achieve real professional fame are mostly forgotten within a few decades.
Fame is a poor reason to devote your life to medicine. The work itself matters more: caring for patients, discovering new knowledge, and teaching the next generation.

The GRAIL NHS Galleri randomized trial with over 142,000 participants was published today @NEJM
"In this trial, we did not observe a lower incidence rate of stage III or IV cancers [the primary endpoint] across 12 prespecified cancers after three screening rounds with multicancer early-detection testing plus usual care than with usual care alone."
