In May 2019, Dr. @rschilsky & I co-chaired the #AAADV19 Workshop Plenary Session "Decentralized #ClinicalTrials: The Future is Now." An incredible group of panelists from academia, industry, govt, & patient #advocacy 👇discussed the rationale, challenges, & opportunities of DCTs.
No one knew yet that the #COVID19 #pandemic was just around the corner. In Mar 2020, FDA released a guidance on conduct of #clinicaltrials during the pandemic: fda.gov/media/136238/d…, & colleagues wrote about the impact on #OncTwitter trials: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…. /2
FDA has now released a draft guidance on decentralized #clinicaltrials for drugs, biological products, & devices covering #telehealth, remote assessments, consent, shipping of IP, & more: fda.gov/media/167696/d…. #MedTwitter #regulatory #drugdevelopment

🧬🎯Lurbinectedin, a selective inhibitor of oncogenic transcription, in patients with pretreated germline BRCA1/2 metastatic breast cancer: results from a phase II basket study 1/4 @myESMO @ESMO_Open @OncoAlert #bcsm esmoopen.com/article/S2059-…
Lurbinectedin has antitumor activity against homologous recombination repair-deficient (HRD) cell lines. The mechanism involves irreversible stalling of elongating RNA polymerase II (Pol II) on DNA template and its specific degradation by the ubiquitin/proteasome machinery 2/4
Subsequently, recruitment of DNA repair factors including xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group F nuclease induces the accumulation of double-strand breaks and apoptosis as downstream events. These effects are increased in HRD cells 3/4

I got into a screaming match with a jerk oncologist who sold out by working for insurance companies to deny claims today. My whole office stopped and stared. But then they clapped after they realized why I was yelling. @premera is denying my patient’s Keytruda for her #TNBC
I asked the oncologist on the line why he was doing what he was doing and he had no answer. I then asked him if this was really the hill he wanted to die on, denying potentially life saving therapy for a young women with bad breast cancer. Again no answer. #MedTwitter #bcsm
He started with some nonsense about how the data wasn’t yet clear if patients really need adjuvant Keytruda and that if I had wanted adjuvant Keytuda she shouldn’t have been treated on the I-SPY2 trial in the neoadjuvant setting😡🤬. This man is not a breast oncologist.

📌 Many providers think local control of the primary tumor in the setting of M1 dz is akin to “closing the barn door after the horse has bolted”

She has 3👨👦👦,🚭, no comorbidities
FMHx: maternal aunt had gastric cancer & paternal cousin had CRC
Tx with neoadjuvant AC ----> T with some response but significant residual disease. 😥
What info would you need to treat this patient?

1/14 🆕 🚨Accelerated article on #breastcancer just out in @nature! #bcsm
We asked:
1️⃣ What drives response to #chemotherapy in #breast #cancer❓
2️⃣ Can we use #machinelearning to predict response to chemotherapy❓

2/14 We are unable to #predict #response to treatment in clinic…
✅Good response ➡️treatment very effective ➡️better survival
❌Poorer response ➡️treatment less effective ➡️worse survival
Being able to forecast response would be a landmark advance!

3/14 We ran a study in women with #breastcancer @CUH_NHS+@CRUK_CI:
1️⃣who had a #cancer biopsy (which we analysed)
2️⃣received 18 weeks of chemo+/-targeted therapy
3️⃣had surgery (and we measured how much cancer remained)
We associated PRE-therapy profiles↔️POST-therapy response👇

2/ First up, Dr. Ferreri presented an interesting article evaluating the potential to classify tumor microenvironments into one of four subtypes to predict response to immunotherapy ⚡️ 🔗pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34019806/
3/ Next, Dr. @FasaAgbedia presented the results of the phase 3️⃣ ASCENT trial that demonstrated ⬆️ OS and ⬆️ PFS w/ sacituzumab govitecan vs standard single agent chemotherapy in pretreated metastatic TNBC #bcsm 🔗pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33882206/
Delighted to share our new study nature.com/articles/s4158… introducing PhasED-Seq out today @NatureBiotech.
A fantastic collaboration from @StanfordMedicine led by Dave_Kurtz & Joanne Soo with @max_diehn to help transform #cancer interception & monitoring by improving #LiquidBiopsy #ctDNA detection of #MRD.
@DrAttai T2. Let’s talk now about radiation specifically for breast cancer. We’ll start w/ breast conserving therapy (BCT) – a term for breast conserving surgery w/radiation as a combined strategy with similar results to a mastectomy. #bcsm #radonc 1/
@DrAttai T2. Vera Peters, whose mother had breast cancer, was a radiation oncologist advocating for smaller surgery w/RT in the 1960s-1970s. Amazing researcher and helped push us toward BCT as an option thefoldingchairhistory.com/2018/03/23/dr-… #bcsm #radonc 2/
@DrAttai T1. Radiation therapy (RT) is the use of ionizing radiation as way to focus subatomic energy to interact with a particular part of body in order to treat a disease. #bcsm #radonc 1/
