First ever #ASCOGU, and I feel so excited to have presented our analysis of RCC clinical trial availability in the U.S. As the treatment landscape advances, which populations are being represented? So much love to all of #TeamPal @cityofhope for their support ❤️ @ASCO #GU26

Great overview by @_ShankarSiva at #ESMO25 on the role of SABR/SBRT in oligoprogressive RCC SABR is safe, non-invasive, and allows continuation of systemic therapy without interruption Ongoing trials are actively exploring its synergy with systemic therapy @urotoday @OncoAlert @yunroseli

🚨 Thrilled to share our new manuscript in @Cancers_MDPI! 🚀 We evaluated clinical & pathologic predictors for pUS at cystectomy in pts with MIBC. Huge thanks to the team at @cityofhope @CityofHope_GU and to incredible mentors @AbhiTrip87 @montypal @WesleyYipMD @ClaytonLauMD 🙏 👥 Pts cT2-4N0M0 grouped: 1️⃣ pUS w/o NAC 2️⃣ pUS w/ NAC 3️⃣ No pUS 📊 277 pts; 38.6% (n=107) had pUS, 37 w/ NAC and 70 w/o NAC 💧 Preop hydronephrosis = higher odds of pUS [OR 2.24] ⬇️ pUS (w/ or w/o NAC) = worse OS & RFS vs no pUS 🏆 Strongest predictor for pUS at: Preop hydronephrosis 🔎 Takeaway: Need better pre-op risk assessment in MIBC! ⚠️ High-risk features like hydronephrosis should prompt closer evaluation due to pUS risk at cystectomy. mdpi.com/2072-6694/17/1…

1/ JUST PUBLISHED at #CGC journal: Evaluating Clinical and Pathological Predictors for Occult Lymph Node Involvement in Patients With Clinical Node-Negative Bladder Cancer Undergoing Radical Cystectomy 🔵Occult LN involvement occurs in 25% of pts with cN0 MIBC. 🔵LN involvement can significantly affect oncologic outcomes, with 5-yr OS rate of approx 32%, compared to 75% in pts without LN involvement. 🔵We leveraged our institutional database to determine clinical and pathological variables associated with pLN+ in patients with clinically node-negative BC (cN0) clinical-genitourinary-cancer.com/article/S1558-…

Excited to share the bulk of my thesis work available online today @CancerCell. We sought to dive into the tumor microenvironment of sarcomatoid renal cell carcinomas to better understand what makes RCC tumors susceptible to immunotherapy: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… 1/n

Proud of @ruchia_upenn, a @Penn undergraduate who spent her summers working with us at @cityofhope. Today she presented her work with @ReginaBarCar @incanMX on international #kidneycancer trial availability - so impressive!

Wonderful presentation by @ruchia_upenn highlighting global disparities in clinical trial availability for RCC. A crucial reminder of the inequities that persist and the urgent need for more inclusive research efforts. #KCRS25

🥗 Powerful diet-focused study at #ASCO25 presented by @SaraKCharMD from CALGB/SWOG 80702: 🔹 Proinflammatory diet linked to worse OS in stage III colon cancer 🔹 Best outcomes in patients with high physical activity and anti-inflammatory diet 🔹 NSAIDs didn’t alter the diet-survival link 🙌 Love seeing nutrition, microbiome, & exercise take the podium spotlight @ASCO! @OncoAlert

🏔️ A standing ovation at #ASCO25 for Dr. Christopher Booth and the CHALLENGE (CO.21) trial. A 3-year structured exercise program post-chemo in stage II/III colon cancer: ✅ Improved OS (HR 0.63, p=0.022) ✅ 1 life saved for every 14 patients 💬 “Exercise is no longer just a QOL intervention - it is a treatment for colon cancer.” 📖 Simultaneously published in @NEJM today. #ColorectalCancer @CDNCancerTrials @ASCO @OncoAlert

#AACR25 In our study high baseline CD5 B cells linked to worse outcomes in mRCC patients treated with cabo/nivo. ➡️CD5+ B cells may be a prognostic biomarker—and potential target—for ICB response Thank you @montypal @kortylmt @EbrahimiHedyeh and @AlcantaraMarice!
