3/4 Active surveillance resulted in early cohort closure (predefined stopping rule) – with 3/12 patients developing gross recurrence 6 months post-op. Radiographic recurrence was not preceded by a positive TTMV-HPV DNA score.

How often can one say that they had hosted a talk with a Nobel prize winner! Was so excited when I woke up to this news that Prof Shimon Sakaguchi had won this year #NobelPrize2025 for #Medicine ! Despite such nobility (pun intended), such a humble individual who spoke on

👋Fantastic work by @treechairusame @imrtlee @MSK_RadOnc @MSKCancerCenter partial larynx IMRT. ➡️63 Gy/28 fx Tis-1N0 ➡️65.25 Gy/29fx T2N0 Excellent LRC. No contra cord failure.
📜 Led by Dr @Treechairusame & @IMRTLee, we present "Partial vs Whole Laryngeal Radiotherapy for Clinical Stage T1-2N0M0/Tis Laryngeal Carcinoma" in @JAMAOto Further study of partial #larynx RT for selected #patients is needed☢️ 🙏 @MSK_RadOnc team! 🔗 https://t.co/V14UqOetR7

This cohort study found that there were no clinically important differences observed in locoregional control between PLRT and WLRT; however, PLRT may be associated with lower rates of acute toxic...

At #ASTRO25, Nancy Lee, MD, (@imrtlee @MSKCancerCenter) shares findings of the KEYNOTE-689 study, the addition of neoadjuvant and adjuvant (starting concurrently with postoperative radiotherapy [PORT] ± cisplatin) pembro to SOC significantly improved event-free survival (EFS) vs

I think we need to reserve judgement and final analysis until seeing all of the papers from these trials…. … but are these results really so different? - In the US trial, more IMRT patients (40% vs. 27% = 13% difference) received g-tubes. - In the UK trial, more IMRT patients

#Plenary Congrats to TORPEDO investigators led by @DrDThomson Excellent discussion by @VinitaTakiar Lots to chew upon but while not the Main endpoint, there were differences at post- and 6w post-RT in favour of #Protons #IMPT Relevant to patients? 🤔

🚨TOROEDO trial - superbly executed with uniform RT plan QA/no crossover. No difference in either endpoints. What’s next? Refine the strategy. Technology is a means to an end. Reduce volume and dose (gross/elective) with biology based therapy selection. @ASTRO_org #astro25

It was such a pleasure to read the results of this juicy and terrific randomized trial of postop RT dose de-escalation for HPV+ OPSCC from @DanielMaMD and colleagues at @MayoRadOnc. The field has been waiting for the formal results, and this paper does not disappoint.

Reviewing papers is prob the most UnderValued academic activity that is yet crucial to upkeep the standards of transparency and robustness of research and journals So it is a very “neat” gesture by @lachiemcd @sueyom @ASTRO_org @IJROBP @ElsevierConnect to receive this simple
