Genomically-Guided Radiation Dosing Shows Promise in Solid Tumors

Radiation oncologists Jacob Scott, MD, DPhil, and Javier Torres-Roca, MD, discuss the benefits of using GARD in a pooled pan-cancer analysis and why there is a call to action to integrate GARD-based radiotherapy dosing in oncology.

Dr. Scott and Dr. Torres-Roca discuss their research of a pooled retrospective analysis exploring genomic-adjusted radiation dose–based radiation therapy in solid tumors and what using genomics to guide radiation dosing decisions could mean for oncology practices.

Genomic-adjusted radiation dose demonstrated a significant association with time to first recurrence and overall survival in patients with certain solid tumors who had been treated with radiation therapy, indicating that genomics should be used to guide radiation dosing decisions.

Javier Torres-Roca, MD, discusses optimizing radiation therapy with genomic-adjusted radiation dose–based radiotherapy dosing in oncology.

Jacob G. Scott, MD, DPhil, discusses the incorporation of genomic-adjusted radiation dose–based radiotherapy dosing in oncology.

Jacob G. Scott, MD, DPhil, discusses the rationale to evaluate genomic-adjusted radiation dose–based radiotherapy dosing in oncology.
