“New European Urology Oncology Pooled trials Peter Mac Cancer Centre/UT MD Anderson shows adding Pembrolizumab to MDT for oligometastatic kidney cancer PFS (28 vs 17 mo; HR 0.57), esp. after prior therapy. Correlative data confirm MDT+ICI-evoked immune activation”

“Amazing collaboration with Shankar Siva, spearheaded by Alex Sherry. Improved pfs with pembro after MDT and improved immune activation. This is being tested now in the prospective randomized ASTROs study.”
