I have been renting cars from @SixtUSA lately but I am noticing a scam to get you to buy insurance and assigning scratches that are preexisting to customers who do not buy such insurance. Time to stop using SIXT #rentalcar #rentalcarinsurance

Updated analysis of EV201 Cohort 2 (cisplatin ineligible mUC pts post IO). Enfortumab vedotin showed a 51% ORR with 22% CR, and mDoR of 13.8mo, which is very reassuring of the benefit of EV in this population. #ASCO21

Zenocutuzumab in tumors with NRG-1 fusion,especially in pancreatic cancers, is promising. Another tissue agnostic target in cancer with an active agent? #nrg1 #ASCO21 #ASCO2021 #zenocutuzumab

I’m incredibly proud of our Foundation Medicine team! Receiving FDA-approval on the broadest #LiquidBiopsy test represents a monumental step in providing more advanced #cancer patients with the #genomic insights that can lead to more personalized care.

I am not sure that this is a major step forward-suggests that oral tesetaxel provides benefit in previously taxane exposed patients and may become a new backbone for future studies. Will review the data when published.

Positive data for tesetaxel (oral taxane) in metastatic HR+ breast cancer announced! The CONTESSA trial Achieved its Primary Endpoint – Tesetaxel Plus a Reduced Dose of Capecitabine Significantly Improved PFS Versus Capecitabine Alone (Hazard Ratio=0.716; p=0.003; 9.8 vs 6.9 mo)

After 19 years, I’ve left Stanford. The accumulated gender discrimination and harassment had taken their toll. I shared my story with @kate_selig and @StanfordDaily because I think it is important and hope it will empower others to speak up. THREAD 1/ stanforddaily.com/2020/06/10…

all our preventative screening needs are put on hold... scheduling mammographies, colonoscopies, pap smears, psa's anyone? i'm personally not willing to go near any health care facilities unless it's for an emergency. #COVIDー19

I’m wondering whether it was already here by that time. Is it not possible to check earlier flu cases? I heard samples are discarded but perhaps when an ab test available, we can check recovered ppl.

In my 7 days on one of our (now 12!) non ICU #COVID19 units, I admitted 58 patients for COVID rule out, of whom 50 tested positive. Two died (DNR), 2 went to hospice, and 5 went to the ICU. That is… not my typical gen med service week. Following, some clinical observations.

Very exciting time in #CancerResearch, and @CancerResrch is spearheading a large collaborative study on #liquidbiopsies to understand its role & seek the implementation of #ctDNA as a monitoring tool for treatment response
