Timely work from @GavittWoodard & team! I think this fits with what many of us are seeing.
One question (among many) which our #radonc colleagues will ask is What dose of RT was used?
Unless risk of pneumonectomy, I’ve worked on teams that have used full definitive RT dose as neoadjuvant.
Do you think this makes a difference?

These are our real world data from Yale out now in @JTOonline comparing retrospective outcomes between patients treated with neoadj chemo-ICI to neoadj chemo (+/- XRT).

Improved survival in the chemo-ICI cohort driven by pts with MPR and pCRs.

Excellent points including technical tips on Dor fundoplication (3-stitch)

At the end the day, selection is key!
