It was great to catch up with fellow Cleveland Clinic expat Nate Pennell during his recent visit to Sarah Cannon Research Institute Nashville. Looking forward to his leadership and vision for cancer at BMS.

Impactful @ascocancer.bsky.social @theaacr.bsky.social session on innovations and access challenges for gene therapy. Dr Frangoul from Sarah Cannon Cancer Network/SCRI shared experience with clinical trials of Exa-cel. Jimi Olaghere shared experience as patient #16 on a trial. #ASCO25

@daxmd.bsky.social presents on multi-cancer early detection at #ASCO25: Highlights positive predictive value & sensitivity of reflex ctDNA methylation MCED for several cancer types in individuals with obesity. With its footprint in 20 states, Sarah Cannon Cancer Network is a pioneer in MCED studies.

Grateful for Sarah Cannon Research Institute colleagues all over the country who work hard and collaborate to advance cancer therapeutics. Learn more about #SCRI research that is being presented at #ASCO25 #ASCO2025 www.scri.com/asco/

Huge loss for the cell and gene therapy community. Dr Marks had been at the forefront of innovating US’s regulatory framework to ensure access to these transformative therapies.

Is that 1/10 centers that already offer cell therapy? We onboard new CART companies and products all the time - would love to hear what the discussion was around why centers who can do this are not getting on board with the TCR product for synovial sarcoma.
