🚨 New #SARCTalk Alert! 🎧 We’re talking all about the #Sarcoma Centers Directory- what it is, why it matters, and how it’s helping patients and families find the support they need. 🎙 Tune in now: open.spotify.com/episode/42p3aE… #SarcomaAwareness #SARCTrials #SarcomaCommunity
1. Some history: AFAIK, the @SarcomaAlliance & @CureSarcoma were the first to list #sarcoma centers on their website. Patient advocate Dave Murphy worked on the Alliance's list, and then I added to it.

Excited to share that @sidmahajan11 (@MacNealHosp) @SuriyaBaskarMD @official_tbhc) & Matt Gao (@IowaMed) had abstracts accepted for poster presentation at @ASCO Qlty Care Symp #ASCOQLTY25 @TimothyJBrownMD @UGrewalMD @GIMedOnc @Deebacca @sawyer_bawek @BRoseMDMPH Phenomenal work 👏
Two of our fellows presented at the @OncLive Fellows Forum - highlighting the emerging role of tarlatamab and the changing burden of lung cancer in AYA population! Promoting research and presentation opportunities is a vital part of academic oncology training @SylvesterCancer
💡 Can less be more? A new study from City of Hope shows that a reduced starting dose of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) floxuridine (0.08 mg/kg/day) significantly lowers hepatobiliary toxicity without compromising survival in patients with completely resected colorectal liver…
Congrats @JTrentMDPhD and @TiansterZhang
😍So happy to see @JTrentMDPhD @SylvesterCancer @univmiami on this list of newest #FASCO recipients for his contributions to #sarcoma research @ASCO #TrentSelfie
💥New paper out! We reanalyzed raw sequencing data from 18,558 standard-of-care Guardant360 ctDNA assays in advanced #colorectalcancer using a partner-agnostic fusion caller. 🧬 Fusions in 1.3% of patients 🧪 93% were subclonal — enriched after EGFR therapy 🔗 Clonal fusions…
#FLAURA2 Catching up with the press release medical literature. Chemo+osimertinib for 1L EGFR+ NSLC now has OS advantage over osi monotherapy. ➡️Magnitude of OS benefit not reported yet , PFS 29.4 vs 19.9mo (HR 0.75) ➡️ Who gets chemo+tki vs amivantamab+TKI is the ?? ➡️ Weigh…
It’s my great honor to write the editorial for the pivotal MATTERHORN study @NEJM @YJanjigianMD @ASCO More global collaboration is needed to further improve outcomes for our patients with gastric/GEJ cancer.@OncoAlert @oncodaily nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
Today is National Leiomyosarcoma Awareness Day, for this rare cancer that affects approximately 10 in 1M people worldwide. Together, let’s raise awareness, encourage early detection, and support research efforts. 💜 #LMSawareness #CancerAwareness #TogetherForACure
Just resharing this now that I’m a heme/onc fellow. 1944 Spencer Buffalo microscope. Can I actually see blasts on this? We will find out when I’m on consults in September. Very old box but when you take it out you can’t tell how old it is.
Every hematologist oncologist needs a vintage microscope! I was given this by a family friend several years ago. Anyone know how old a Spencer Buffalo 197082 microscope is?
I spent WAY too long last week in oncology clinic manually generating chemotherapy dates and appointments for schedulers. So, in a fit of rage, I vibe-coded this simple app to forever do this for me... and you! #rstats 👨💻 @TheCodingDocs 📊 Free app --> thecodingdocs.com/clincal/chemo-…

Sarcomas everywhere are shaking in their boots! 🤠
Today is my first clinic as attending physician at @MDAndersonNews #endcancer #sarcoma
A quick 3-minute video on the steps to getting a cooperative trial approved – using our Phase III pancreas cancer RCT as an example. It took ~4+ years. Hope this is helpful to anyone going through process or just wanting to learn more about it!
This was a bit of a passion project... 🧐 Trying to share all the random things I do with #RStats. This was made using the raw data from the NCI and visualized with plotly and rmarkdown. The photo doesn't do it justice. Check out the interactive elements on the actual site.
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) has 26 categories for 837 terms, and 3,185 options when you account for Grade 1 to 5 🤯! I wanted to be able to interactively visualize CTCAE so I some wrote code 🧑💻 @TheCodingDocs Take a look at --> thecodingdocs.com/clincal/ctcae

First day of fellowship @UTSWHemeOnc and I just gotta say… I chose the best specialty there is 🤷
