22/10/52 - 25/12/2009 15 years have passed since Philip died. I’m thankful for the memories. Thankful for the inspiration to live life to the full. Thankful for the motivation to improve cancer outcomes for cancer patients and their families with @CR_UK and others

STAMPEDE update at #ESMO25today at noon. Landmark analysis of 7,129 pts shows PSA ≤0.2 ng/mL by 6–12 weeks strongly predicts OS in HSPC. Prognostic value modified by metastatic volume & nodal status. Abiraterone ± enzalutamide delivers deepest PSA responses & best survival.

Multidisciplinary team working will be increasingly essential as cancer care becomes more complex. We're urging the Government to use the upcoming National Cancer Plan for England to kick-start reform of how cancer MDTs work. Read the briefing: rcr.ac.uk/news-policy/policy…
