Big thank you to @arihakimi for visiting us and sharing your insights and energy. Expecting @MTDawidek to build on some of this with clinical and translational programs in #kidneycancer at @VanProstateCtr. Thanks also to @UroOnc for generous support of this visit!
An honour to host exemplary surgeon-scientist @arihakimi at @UBCUrology and @VanProstateCtr as our @UroOnc Visiting Professor. Inspiring work and vision in kidney cancer. A great opportunity for trainees and faculty to interact and exchange ideas across the clinic and lab.

What about all the single-arm registrational trials for BCG-unresponsive CIS? Phase 3 (as I understand the FDA has requested in at least one case) or phase 2? A real dilemma in terminology
🧠 Words matter in science. 📢 In their @EUPlatinum article, Vickers & Inman call for stricter labeling of clinical trials: ❌ Don't call single-arm studies “phase 3” ❌ Don’t mix “registrational” with “phase 2” ✅ Let’s keep trial terminology precise—for better science & patient care. 🔗 buff.ly/Nfff64x #ClinicalTrials #UroOncology #TrialDesign

Need for RCT in this space highlighted also in @theNCI-sponsored clinical trials planning meeting (CTPM) Dec 2022 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4003…
Replying to @tompowles1
Agree; efficacy plus ease of scheduling likely to make this attractive option for patients. Also agree - time to move beyond single arm studies and on to RCTs as we state in @IBCG_BladderCA consensus paper sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @EUplatinum

Thanks @DrJohnSfakianos for spending 2 days with us talking all things #bladdercancer! To think we were hosting an AUA young urologist of the year and we didn't know it! Well deserved!!👏👏
Had an amazing trip @UBC visiting @marty_gleave @pcvblack and team. Amazing program with exceptional science. Thoughtful conversations with all the scientist and residence. More importantly the food and wine were fantastic 😀. Thank you and looking forward to collaborating.
