Updated IO combo table after #ASCO2023 IO/TKI presentations. VEGF tx provides early disease control while Ipi provides durability. We need a way to harness the benefits of both approaches. @montypal @DrChoueiri @tompowles1 @motzermd @HHammersMD

Flere kvitter, når prisen på cigaretter ryger i vejret. Men prisen skal hoppe, så det kan mærkes - ellers har det ingen effekt. Så hjælp @sophieloehde og sundheden, @JeppeBruus: Sæt prisen højt op, så vi kan få en #røgfrifremtid #dkpol #sundpol altinget.dk/sundhed/artikel/… – at Copenhagen, Denmark

About the smile: the standing ovation also meant that people saw what I knew: behind every one of these bars is a patient. I know every name and have seen almost everyone. I know their stories and their children. And I believe many are cured because of this. #ESMO22 #ChalabiPlot
