Doctors cannot ignore the social, economic and political aspects of health - this has been proven over and over again. This is our lane.

Our paper got rejected by a journal because the reviewers felt we used a sub standard comparator arm. The NCCN guidelines recommends the comparator arm as a standard of care (level 1) and this is most widely used in LMIC. Is the NCCN recommending sub standard regimens? #ASCO23

Over time I’ve tweeted a lot about evidence-based medicine. But oncologists are often in situations with little or no evidence to guide them. In these situations we go to “first principles”. But what are the first principles? Here’s a thread outlining those I think are key.

We've been working on this table as each drug has its own approved IHC Assay & their own scoring method. Would love everyone to contribute to ensure its as comprehensive as possible #GISM #LCSM @HemOncFellows #BCSM @NarjustFlorezMD @JackWestMD @ADesaiMD #MedTwitter @MPishvaian

📖 Our multi-centre study: 2 drug vs 3 drug induction in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia nature.com/articles/s4140… ✅ No benefit in survival with addition of 3rd drug etoposide (ADE) to dauno and ARAC (3+7) ✅ Similar toxicities ✅ First INPHOG RCT ✅ First RCT on AML from LMIC

✅ 80% of pediatric cancers occur in LMICs 20% in HICs ✅ 20% of pediatric cancer survive in LMICs 80% in HICs ❌ 80-90% of oral presentations in conferences are from HICs 10%-20% from LMICs How will we improve survival in LMICs to 60% by 2030 if their voices aren't heard

Today is #WorldLungCancerDay! IARC estimates #LungCancer to be the 2nd most common cancer in the 🌏, accounting for approx 1 in 8 of all cancer cases. The risk of lung cancer is 20-25 times as high in men and women who smoke compared to those who do not smoke.

Oncologists in LMIC should stop prescribing a neutropenic diet to cancer patients. Our study shows it does not reduce infection. @BMJ_SPCare @CI_WIA Neutropenic versus regular diet for acute leukaemia induction chemotherapy: randomised controlled trial spcare.bmj.com/content/early/…

"The most important drug for improving survival in pediatric oncology in resource limited settings and LMICs is NUTRITION." Quote: self. Our data has consistently shown across all pediatric cancers, malnutrition reduces survival by 10-30% #oncology #nutrition

Reason for rejection of a RCT manuscript done in India. Reviewer. 1. Reported survival is low (which is the reality). 2. Hi fi molecular testing not performed (expensive and not available). When will 10% of the world realize the reality of 90% of the world. #GlobalOncology
