Congratulations to Dr. Simron Singh who was named as Chair in Neuroendocrine Medical and Systemic Cancer Care & Research, jointly shared by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and the University of Toronto’s Temerty Faculty of Medicine. As Chair he will support a combination of clinical trial innovation, precision biomarker discovery, and translational research integration at Sunnybrook.
The 2026 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancer Symposium was held on January 8-10, 2026 in San Francisco, California see all the CCTG Abstracts below.
The results of the BR.31 global Phase III study, testing adjuvant durvalumab in patients with completely resected non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and led by Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG), were published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
This phase III trial compares perioperative chemotherapy (given before and after surgery) versus adjuvant chemotherapy (given after surgery) for the treatment of pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery (removable/resectable).
Please join us in welcoming Darren Frew who will be supporting the CCTG Gastrointestinal disease site committee. He resides in Burnaby BC and was treated successfully for colon cancer via surgery and chemotherapy in 2019/ 2020. He is grateful the treatment went well and continues in the right direction.
