What’s the role of the extent of resection in grade 2 IDH-mutant glioma? I’m delighted to see this work published in @TheLancetOncol — thanks and congratulations to the team!

In this week’s @JAMAOnc - full published paper of a randomised trial of craniospinal vs involved field RT in treatment of leptomeningeal metastatic disease

➡️ PFS 8.2 vs 2.3 months, p<0.01

First trial that has really shifted the dial in this difficult clinical setting. #RadOnc

Another study supporting efficacy and safety of reirradiation... Many data indicate similar scenario for Primark brain tumors and metastasi.. waiting for @Legato_Horizon results on GBM reirradiation and lomustine vs lomustine alone

🔥 Can SABR work twice?
Meta-analysis shows in-field #SABR reirradiation offers 78% 1-year control with low toxicity—especially for small tumours, high BED (≥200 Gy), &amp; long intervals.
💡 A safe, effective salvage option for recurrent #NSCLC.

Pleased to share our latest work in @RO_GreenJournal

In-field lung re-SABR achieves excellent outcomes with low toxicities.

Size, dose, timing matters. Best results seen in recurrent tumours &lt;2cm, cumulative BED ≥200 Gy, and interval &gt;12 months.

Replying to @kevjang_
So what predicts better outcomes?

✅ Tumor size &lt;2 cm
✅ Cumulative BED ≥200 Gy
✅ Interval &gt;12 months between SABR courses

Size. Dose. Timing. All critically influence local control.

What about toxicity?
Pneumonitis ≥ Grade 2: 6.4%
Grade 3 events: rare
Grade 4–5 toxicity: only in central tumors
➡️ Peripheral lesions had excellent safety profiles.

Key takeaway: location matters for reirradiation safety.

📢🚨 Hot off the press @TheLancetOncol for #kidneycancer! shorturl.at/kAGVd. SABR vs thermal ablation;
- Despite ⏫age, ⏬worse GFR, and ⏫tumours for SABR
- SABR ⬆️effective than TA (at 1, 2 and 5 yrs)
- esp for RCC &gt;4cm
- same renal decline (p=0.75)
- similar F/U #radonc

Fellow lung cancer providers:
Who’s ready to try and memorize the 9th Ed staging which is now in place?!

Some notable changes:
-N2a &amp; N2b
-Not all N2 = stage III
-M1c1 &amp; M1c2

Ready or not…here it comes…

📊 An International @EORTC Survey on Stage III NSCLC resectability:
✅ Resectable:
Smaller tumors, w/ single-station N2
Larger tumours, w/ max N1
❌ Unresectable:
Bulky/invasive N2, N3
T4 tumours, w/ multi-station N2
