Description

Theodore Roosevelt is famously quoted saying: "It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed." This is what ASCO, oncologists and cancer researchers are faced with daily. As our tour de force of ASCO 2023 ends, and we foresee a future where daily episodes don't arrive, we present our final episode. Michael and Josh have kept three of the most exciting trials until the end.

Today, three plenary sessions are reviewed. The first is in gliomas, the second in adjuvant lung cancer treatment, and finally, Michael and Josh tackle Mount Everest and the confusing world of rectal cancer with PROSPECT, a trial looking at non-inferiority and toxicity.
