This year, Michael and Josh have gone to great lengths to bring you ASCO 2025. This year, we are doing things a bit differently, but rest assured, we are going to bring along with us a global host of experts to give you the very best out of the practice-changing, thought-provoking, design-defining trials that you know and love from this podcast.

This episode focuses on adjuvant atezolizumab in the colon cancer space and the use of perioperative durvalumab in the gastric cancer space. Both are highly interesting spaces, and both are potentially practice-changing

This week, we talk about metastatic bladder cancer. The last two years have seen drastic changes in this space, with the addition of immunotherapy and ADCs in a first-line setting. While exceptionally effective, toxicity and patient selection remain challenging. The other big issue with what's best for the second line? That's the golden question.

This week, we explore muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). This space has made significant progress with the completion of two pivotal trials. The first was VESPER, comparing two chemotherapy regimens. The key to this trial may be the amount of cisplatin delivered, but there are some unknowns in a real-world setting. It also compared the neoadjuvant to the perioperative space. The second trial utilises immunotherapy in the perioperative landscape and is the first trial to so but only used one chemotherapy regimen.

A must-listen to episode comparing the complexities of early bladder cancer and the options available.
