Are high dose steroids for immunotherapy related toxicity harmful in the long run? This paper suggests they are for #Cancer. But was the dose of the steroid proportionate to the severity of the IO toxicity? 🤷🏻 @anmwongNZ, @SpainLavinia #Melanoma ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…


Please support Dr Dave Lau @PeterMacCC and Prof Ramsay who are walking this weekend for this great cause to raise funds for cancer research. @GICancer

Tomorrow, our incredible team of Gutsy fundraisers will begin their 4-day trek through the Grampians. Led by AGITG Board Member, Professor Rob Ramsay, they have raised over $21,000 for GI cancer research! Will you support them on their trek? Visit: …iansgutsychallenge.gofundraise.com.au



So pleased to be working with @DrJonasANilsson and Dr Zlatibor Velickovic in bringing cell therapy to Perth. There is much more work to be done! perthnow.com.au/local-news/per…


is making a Swift exit from Sydney 😝


Big news today with the FDA approval of lifileucel: a cell therapy for immunotherapy resistant melanoma. A genuine game changer for patients in the US but will be interesting to see how other countries adopt it. fda.gov/news-events/pr…


Datopotomab-durvalumab looks very promising for triple negative breast cancer. Nearly an 80% response rate. Early days but encouraging. Looking forward to seeing more data for this ADC-IO combination. #bcsm

The BEGONIA ph1/2 trial ages like good wine. At #SABCS22, with 7 months of follow up, Dato-DXd+durva had shown an ORR of 73% for 1L TNBC. In the updated abstract at #ESMO23, ORR increased to 79%, median PFS exceeded one year (13.8 months). Only 3 cases of ILD (max G2). #bcsm

Terrific news for Australian uveal melanoma patients with the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC) positive recommendation for tebentafusp to be listed on the PBS. pbs.gov.au/info/industry/…


So long until next time Adelaide. Learnt a lot about lobular breast cancers, HER2 IHC 0-3 and ADCs at the Australian Breast Disease ASM 2023. Had a great time with old friends and new.

Congratulations to Dr Sam Bowyer and @LinearClinical for their work in this promising new G12C Inhibitor Divarasib. Response rates of 53% and mPFS of 13.1 months in G12C NSCLC looks promising amongst other tumour types. Well done! nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…


This paper on the negative impact of THC and immunotherapy responses will no doubt be cited in many doctor-patient consultations.

Had the ❤️ feels when a colleague sent me this photo from a meeting back in Melbourne yesterday. So nice to know one hasn’t been forgotten from a great team in a terrific organisation!

Never thought to refer to Star Wars or Taylor Swift in a scientific paper title! 🤗

I know Perth is on the opposite side of the Earth to Chicago, but to my surprise this arrived in the mail yesterday. 😝 #ASCO #betterlatethennever

Absolute pleasure to present CHARLI: A Phase 1b/2 study of nivolumab-denosumab or ipilimumab-nivolumab-denosumab in metastatic melanoma. Please stop by poster board 288 in the melanoma session at #ASCO2023 Thank you @PeterMacCC @MASC_Trials #melanoma meetings.asco.org/2023-asco-annu
