Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 201: Bladder Cancer Reimagined - Part 3 - Muscle Invasive Perioperative Approach With Associate Professor Will Ince
Q: Is there a practical path to avoiding cystectomy for some patients if biomarkers and imaging all look good?
There is a hypothesis that if neoadjuvant therapy leads to CTDNA and UTDNA negativity and imaging/microcystoscopy are clear, some patients might avoid cystectomy, but definitive evidence and consensus are still developing, so it's not yet standard of care.
Episode 201: Bladder Cancer Reimagined - Part 3 - Muscle Invasive Perioperative Approach With Associate Professor Will Ince
Q: Can CTDNA data be used in real-time to guide perioperative decisions, or is it primarily a research tool right now?
Right now, CTDNA data is not yet ready for real-time clinical decision-making in the perioperative setting; it's still largely investigational, though Niagara provides encouraging signals about converting CTDNA positive patients to negative and correlating with responses.
Episode 196 : The role of Supportive Care in optimising immunotherapy and cancer outcomes Part 1 with Dr Dan Monnery Clatterbridge Cancer Centre
Q: What evidence supports delivering palliative care skills in generalist settings rather than always referring to specialists?
Evidence from population studies suggests that providing advanced care planning and symptom management in a generalist setting can lead to better end-of-life outcomes and patient preferences being achieved, reducing unnecessary reliance on specialist services when not needed.
Episode 196 : The role of Supportive Care in optimising immunotherapy and cancer outcomes Part 1 with Dr Dan Monnery Clatterbridge Cancer Centre
Q: How should clinicians introduce and navigate the transition to involve palliative or supportive care without causing alarm?
Be upfront about symptom management and the goals of care; explain that you are bringing in expert colleagues to manage complex symptoms and improve quality of life, not to imply a change in prognosis, and frame referrals in terms of specific needs and collaborative care.
Episode 196 : The role of Supportive Care in optimising immunotherapy and cancer outcomes Part 1 with Dr Dan Monnery Clatterbridge Cancer Centre
Q: What is the practical difference between supportive care and palliative care?
Supportive care is a broad, multidisciplinary approach that wraps around the patient as they undergo cancer treatment, while palliative care can be more specific to complex, advanced, or end-of-life needs; many teams use a threshold to determine when specialist palliative care is needed, otherwise generalist palliative care roles address non-complex needs.
