Really great research involving some of my Concord oncology colleagues: improved DFS and OS from a structured exercise program in colorectal cancer.

Exercise ‘better than drugs’ to stop cancer returning after treatment, trial finds
First clear evidence that structured exercise regime reduces risk of dying by a third, can stop tumours coming back or a new cancer developing

A lot of buzz around Open Evidence, an AI for HCPs. Performs reasonably well for a few questions on VTE, lymphoma and pregnancy… Curious if anyone can find answers which are wrong!

This is good news. But I’m reminded each time about how lucky we are in Australia to have public healthcare.

Like we didn’t have enough great reasons to donate blood!

Giving blood linked to lower risk of pre-cancer gene
Frequent donors were more likely to have different genetic changes in their blood stem cells, scientists found.

Fresh update on ET from Tefferi. Would be nice to hear more about pegIFN. Perhaps trickier to introduce but pregnancy-safe and fewer tablets.

Since we’re in the middle of another mass-migration event 🛶 , it’s time for my usual plug for “Sky Follower Bridge”. Useful tool if you want to try and find your erstwhile Twitter follows here on Bluesky.
