This pivotal study is a move away from current ‘one size fits all’ treatment approaches through the testing of a vulvar cancer patients’ tissue to determine the best treatment options. Researchers want to evaluate if the molecular features in tissues removed in the first surgery can direct the need for additional surgery versus a close follow-up for patients with vulvar squamous cell cancer.
CCTG is heartbroken to share the news that, following a long and courageous battle, Suzanne Wood the GI patient representative has passed away. She died at hospital in Toronto with family by her side at the age of 48 on February 9, 2025.
The CCTG SC30 (RATIONAL) trial has been successfully funded through the CIHR fall competition for nearly $1.2 million over four years. The study will investigate treatment options for patients with blood cancers and low antibody levels to determine the best supportive care interventions to prevent serious infections.
The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) has announced that the recipient of the 2025 TAT Honorary Award is Philippe Bedard, Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto, Staff Medical Oncologist in the Division of Medical Oncology, Director of the Cancer Genomics Program, and a Principal Investigator in the Bras Drug Development Program at the Princess
The Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) has been awarded $742,052 for the PAC5 clinical trial in the CIHR Fall 2024 Project Grant competition. This phase III trial will test lanreotide for the prevention of one of the most severe complications of pancreatic surgery, postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF).
“The PAC5 clinical trial has the potential to change the standard of care for postoperative pancreatic fistula prophylaxis, significantly benefiting patients and reducing healthcare system costs,” says CCTG Senior Investigator, Chris O’Callaghan.
