Congratulations to Prof @aislingbarryro & the @CUH_Cork team.
The SIMPLIFY-SABR-COMET trial, sponsored by @BCCancer, has expanded in Ireland with a new site at Cork University Hospital, led by Prof @aislingbarryro (National Lead Investigator).
This study is comparing different SABR approaches for patients with limited secondary tumours, focusing on outcomes, side effects & quality of life: bit.ly/3JF05IY

Congrats to St. Luke's Hospital for randomising the 2nd pt in Ireland on the Samurai Trial. @NRGOncology
1st pt was enrolled in Beacon Hospital.
Does adding kidney SABR to immunotherapy improve outcomes for patients whose ca has spread beyond the kidney:

Great to see such progress, but we have a lot of work to do for patients with lung, oesphageal, liver and pancreatic cancers.
Reflects the absolute importance of #ClinicalTrial in improving outcomes
@cancertrials_ie @CancerInstIRE @IRROGTrials @IrishCancerSoc
Great graphics and global overview on cancer prevalence and therapeutic improvements in this article. Overall cancer survival rates have moved from 50% end of the 70s to 67% in 2013.

March 3-7 is Lymphoedema Awareness Week.
Secondary lymphoedema can be caused by cancer treatment like lymph removal or radiotherapy.
It can develop long after treatment, typically in the arm, breast, leg & groin.
