Pleased to share our latest study in @Nature. We identify radiographic thymic health as a tumor-agnostic biomarker, hiding in plain sight, of #ICI outcomes. ⬆️thymic health associates with #ICI efficacy, ⬆️TCR diversity & TRECs. @HugoAerts @Simon_Bernatz

Yet good for boosting creativity
Science is partly inspiration, partly execution
Inspiration thrives when escaping routine: through beauty, art, nature, or meaningful connections.
Execution, instead, demands rigor and tranquillity.
Key is to mix both.

anyone who has travelled a lot knows that even though pics like this look cool, trying to half-work on your laptop in places like this absolutely fucking sucks and you’d be better off just enjoying yourself

Fantastic panel at #NYGU on radioligand, immunotherapy, targets and future #prostatecancer therapy. Combinations hold promise but need rational, scientifically informed trials and cooperation across industry partners

In mBC, not all imaging changes mean your therapy has stopped working and switching too early is a real risk.
1/ RECIST 1.1 sets a clear bar for progression: ≥20% increase in the sum of target lesion diameters (with ≥5mm absolute increase), unequivocal progression of non-target lesions, or new lesions. Not every change on imaging meets this threshold.
2/ Three scenarios commonly and incorrectly flagged as progression: new asymptomatic sclerotic bone lesions, small mm asymptomatic changes in known lesions, and increased SUV on PET without corresponding size change. None of these, in isolation, trigger a therapy switch for me.
3/ Sclerotic bone lesions deserve particular attention. When effective therapy kills tumor cells in bone, the body lays down new bone matrix appearing dense and white on CT. This is a healing response, not new disease.
4/ The consequences of switching too early are real: loss of disease control from a working regimen, premature exhaustion of sequencing options.
5/ My approach: I integrate clinical symptoms, tumor markers, and serial scans together before making any decision to change therapy.
6/ Bottom line: confirm true progression before changing course. When in doubt, a short interval rescan is almost always preferable to an unnecessary switch.
