The CCTG NE2 STOPNET neuroendocrine study has officially open in Canada. Researchers are investigating whether somatostatin analogues (SSA) are needed after targeted therapy for patients with neuroendocrine tumours.
“NE2 addresses an important question for patients and the healthcare system of whether we can reduce treatment burden by stopping SSAs after PRRT has been completed,” says Dr Jonathan Loree, the NE2 study co-chair and BC Cancer Oncologist.
The Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) at Queens University is currently seeking a visionary cancer trialist for the position of Senior Investigator (SI). The new SI will play a critical role for CCTG, acting as a co-principal investigator of numerous individual trials and a leader within the CCTG program and scientific committees.
As part of our commitment to promote capacity building in the Canadian cancer research landscape, the CIHR Institute of Cancer Research (CIHR-ICR), in partnership with the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research and Terry Fox Research Institute, as well as in-kind partners, the Canadian Cancer Society and Cancer Research Society, is pleased to announce the open call for applications for its annual Early Career Researcher (ECR) Workshop.
