Unfortunately, to this point, Father Conference-Leave has not delivered, and 2023 is no different. However, the cold and wind will not stop our intrepid hosts from parsing the avalanche of potentially practice-changing studies, agents and professional development about to descend on the Windy City</p><p><br></p><p>So, consider today's episode what our American listeners would call an \"appetizer,\" a taste of what may be coming from the American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting for 2023. This will be followed by a string of episodes breaking the aforementioned avalanche down and examining it with a fine tooth comb, with one episode dedicated to each tumour stream. So, do not adjust your set, as there will be a huge amount of Oncology content coming your way. As well as some helpful hints about North American geography.</p><p><br></p><p>Many thanks to Merck for supporting this episode. Merck provided virtual access to ASCO 2023, but did not review or approve any part of OftiM's coverage of ASCO.</p><p><br></p><p>For more episodes, resources and blog posts, visit <a href=\"https://open.acast.com/shows/62d20dbcffef490011c8df4b/episodes/www.inquisitiveonc.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>www.inquisitiveonc.com</strong></a></p><p>Find us on Twitter <strong>@InquisitiveOnc!</strong></p><p>If you want us to look at a specific trial or subject, email us at<strong> </strong><a href=\"mailto:inquisitiveonc@gmail.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>inquisitiveonc@gmail.com</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p>Art courtesy of Taryn Silver</p><p>Music courtesy of Music Unlimited: https://pixabay.com/users/music_unlimited-27600023/</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> This podcast is for educational purposes only.
