He had a quick wit and a knack for saying just the right thing. 'It's all part of the master plan,' he'd say. His humor and wisdom were his gifts to us. CT elevated everyone around him, without asking for anything in return. Above anything else he believed in "good people”

CT took me under his wing as a clueless medical student from across the world and made sure we had family here in the US. He believed in me and

Since meeting him for the first time, he had a presence to him. He can uplift any room with his infectious energy. His face lit up when talking about his family, his famous brisket, or his love for mitochondria. Food was truly his love language, but he was a storyteller at heart.

He had ideas for days and he'd giggle with excitement over fresh data or papers, always urging us to 'think bigger' without fretting about the 'how.' His red pen on our papers was enlightening, revealing his fondness for detail and, notably, Oxford commas.

While the use of PMWs might contribute to better quality (abiding by CONSORT...) their disproportionate use among industry funded successful trials raises questions of potential COI and spin. We call for continued and increased reporting of the funding, use, and role of PMWs

A must listen. Are we overhyping PFS? Does it matter clinically to patients who want to live longer (OS) and better(QoL)? Long story short, patients don’t really care about an arbitrary number that does not always translate to their care expectations.

Successful trials were also more likely to have utilized PMWs (53.4% vs 32.9%, p< .001).
Interestingly, the use of PMWs increased significantly over time (OR=1.11, p <.001)

This is a step in the right direction towards more inclusive trials. Hoping to see more buy in from different stakeholders esp. the industry.

Thanks for amplifying our work

! Quantifying the acute GI outcomes during treatment of patients with anal cancer will definitely help with setting treatment expectations and patient-physician interaction.

Not only was lab work affected, but many clinical trials stopped accruing patients and other patients were switched to standard of care therapies to minimize exposure.

Check out our recent work on
#FDA
approvals in oncology. The majority of trials that led to FDA approval had a surrogate primary endpoint. We owe it to our patients to measure what actually matters to patients and we expect our regulatory bodies to uphold that.
FDA approvals play a major role in shaping

Really excited to hear about project patient voice which will allow healthcare providers to access PRO data collected from cancer trials. This will allow providers to be armed with information that can guide treatment expectations

“Do you have children who smile at the sound of your voice? What was the last thing you were allowed to tell them, before you came alone into the hospital, before the breathing tube, the drug-induced coma?” Heavy piece by
@AnnaDeForest
The morning you die, I don’t want to be there — like most mornings now, when I rise against my will and crawl dejectedly into scrubs. I don’t want to be a plague doctor or a hero on TV. I look for hope and find none, but I’m not allowed to admit to total free fall.

With the

underway, many large corporations are receiving much needed aid, but science is not getting its fair share. It seems that we are repeating the mistakes of the past by undercutting scientific research at a time where evidence-based medicine is in high demand

While important regulatory bodies like
@FDAOncology
@NIH
@ASCO
have offered guidance on how to proceed during these unprecedented times. Solutions like no-cost extensions, postponing grant deadlines, and tenure clock extensions are welcome, a lot remains to be addressed.
