This is a great read. D-FLOT approved for all gastric/GEJ adeno (at least in US), but which subset of patients appear to benefit most? Plus, importance of considering MATTERHORN in context of multiple other negative IO trials. Look forward to more of this on your Substack!
Do check out my post on Substack 🙂👇 about matterhorn Trial https://t.co/vdGEf10nly

@cpeedell @crispinhiley @LungConsultant @DrewMoghanaki @drjamesgood @_ShankarSiva Or no invasive treatment and close observation only. 17.2% of the LND group had tumors with CTR = 0 (ie pure GGO). There’s a good reason why the NCCN guidelines recommend CT scan follow up only for pure GGO

Another 🔑result we’ve been waiting for as 🫁🔪@tssmn @GenThorSurgClub @STS_CTsurgery @GlobalTSRA @AATSHQ Seems like we should start it as soon as EGFR + noted and continue Postop without interruption. IMO
