neo-AEGIS Trial

Hi Pehu. I don’t normally post but thought I would here. This trial aims to compare the best groups of 2 previous trials. It’s very difficult to compare trials so this often happens to set he record straight. A colleague of mine who is a professor of oncology recommended my dad take this opportunity. Being on a trial has some good benefits - he is scanned every 6 months. My dad was randomised to chemotherapy and radiotherapy prior to surgery and no post surgery chemo and he’s still going strong over 3 years later- I think after all staging he was T2/3 and N0 M0 before the trial. Obviously this is one person and you can’t interpret from this. Might there be any interim data from this trial - my dad’s surgeon hinted at some data to him a while back on an open evening? Hope that’s helpful. Private message me for anything more x

Thank you for your reply. This trial is randomised between standard chemo and chemo + radiotherapy. Unfortunately I got the standard chemo, EOX, epirubicin, oxaliplatin and capecitabine. I am not looking forward to it. Reading some of the comments on this site about EOX, it sounds awful.
