I highly encourage you to watch this video where I chat with @marathonofhope Patient Working Group members Beverley Riediger and Dan Murphy about some very patient-centric issues such as dose optimization, precision medicine, improving quality of life, and questions to ask your oncologist if you have cancer.

Trio of studies, including this, ours & @rosslevinemd group. Tumor-infiltrating clonal hematopoiesis (TI-CH or CH-Tum) leads to:
-worse cancer outcomes
-inflammatory TME shaped by CH myeloid cells
-potentially targetable changes

New evidence today @NEJM that age-related clonal hematopoiesis (CHIP) has a driver role in evolution of solid cancers

Circular RNA in aggressive tumours
Abundant circRMST molecules were found in aggressive prostate and lung cancer, interacting with transcription factors SOX2 & NKX2-1 to drive oncogene ASCL1 expression, reported by @UHN @pmcancercentre & @DanaFarber.
