Oncology Times - Ot Broadcasts From The Ipad Archives

A marked improvement in the outlook for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer has been achieved thanks to a neoadjuvant regimen using standard anti-cancer drugs added to usual therapy.  At the ESMO Congress 2023 held in Madrid, Spain, Mary McCormack, PhD, MBBS, FRCR, Consultant Clinical Oncologist at University College London Hospitals, reported findings from the GCIG INTERLACE randomized Phase III trial of induction chemotherapy. This involved the use of carboplatin with paclitaxel for 6 weeks immediately before standard chemoradiotherapy. After the conference, OncTimesTalk’s correspondent Peter Goodwin visited McCormack to find out more about the clinical implications arising from the INTERLACE study.
