Dr Samuel Kareff, speaks to ecancer at the Best of ASCO®️ 2024 Miami Symposium about the updates from ASCO 2024 discussed in a panel for gastrointestinal tumours.

He first highlights the ESOPEC trial which showed that perioperative FLOT was superior in overall and progression free survival to neoadjuvant chemoradiation for oesophageal adenocarcinoma.

Dr Kareff then discusses the next steps for gastrointestinal tumours touching on an over reliance on ctDNA guidance of adjuvant therapy for locally advanced colorectal tumours and hoping for more progress in other tumour types.
