This is well worth a read. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Patricia.

My observations and disappointments as a Patient Advocate for Bowel Cancer/Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Patients in Ireland lynchsyndromeireland.com/2024/03/05/my-… via @lynchsyndromirl

Great news Shirley 👏🏻👏🏻 fantastic to have another clinical trial open to melanoma patients.

Giving this great patient involvement project another run across the X-Verse

Very worrying for anyone based in the north west. Ridiculously overstretched service in a time of increasing incidences of skin cancers including melanoma

And that’s a wrap. Thanks to the patient advocates track ESMO - Eur. Oncology for making this possible. Will spend the next few weeks distilling all I’ve learned and turn it into action MPNE Melanoma Support Ireland 🖤 #esmo23

The importance of managing toxicities and highlighting them, delving beyond the overarching (& almost useless?) global QOL index and reducing over treatment. Hugely important and wonderful session. Thanks Teresa Amaral, MD, PhD David McDermott & team for a great discussion #ESMO23

Findings from Myeloma Patients Europe presented by Kate Morgan at #ESMO23 . I suspect these findings are common across multiple cancers Melanoma Support Ireland 🖤

The Low Risk #Melanoma paradox- early stage Melanoma have the best prognosis but make up the largest proportion of deaths #MelSM MPNE #ESMO23 @dirk_schadendorf

And we *finally* put to rest ⚰️ CLND in #Melanoma @Akkoi (my words not his) #ESMO23

Another great session at #ESMO23 with debate around adjuvant immunotherapy for stage IIB/C. Agreement that it has benefit for some, but can’t be offered unless it’s reimbursed Melanoma Support Ireland 🖤. Great presentation Becki Lee Professor Georgina Long AO & Dirk Schadendorf

Lots of questions for Ines Pires da Silva from Melanoma Institute Australia on identifying and overcoming primary resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Really interesting presentation & discussion #ESMO2023 Melanoma Support Ireland 🖤

What’s my first line therapy in advanced melanoma. A really interesting discussion on the options with evidence presented for each. As always it’s never straightforward. Thanks to Teresa Petrella, Reinhard Dummer and Ana Arance for a great session #ESMO2023

Landed at #ESMO2023 . My mind is somewhat blown by the sheer size

Our patient-led survey asking people with metastatic breast cancer about their needs will be closing soon.
