Radiation dose in SBRT vs. Y90 in HCC. This confused me for the LONGEST time. Both measured in Gy, but clearly not the same – Y90 doses often reach 400Gy+, SBRT doses much lower (<50 Gy), yet both efficacious. Explained below. Bottom line is Y90 Gy ≠ SBRT Gy. @OncoAlert

Holy smokes, MATTERHORN hits OS! 🏔️🔥 We’ve been waiting for this one. After FLOT became standard for resectable gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma, everyone wondered if adding immunotherapy could move the bar. Earlier this year, MATTERHORN showed a big EFS win for DFLOT, along with
