@mtahirMD @GiJournal @AGA_Gastro @samirguptaGI @8pm Excellent summary. Imp to note this is one of the studies which contributed to the new USMSTF guidelines.
Q1.Almost the same number of participants ~6k had conventional adenomas and serrated polyps. What accounts for the higher than expected rates of SSPs ? #GIJC @samirguptaGI
@mtahirMD @GiJournal @AGA_Gastro @samirguptaGI @8pm Q2. Following up on the 1st question.
How does lumping HPs and Serrated lesions together affect the validity of the study? #GIJC @samirguptaGI
@mtahirMD @GiJournal @AGA_Gastro @samirguptaGI @8pm Q3. How do we know that the low risk of CRC in 1-2 tubular adenoma group is not because of treatment effect/polyp removal?
Wouldn’t this mean that early surveillance is working? #GIJC @samirguptaGI

@GiJournal @AGA_Gastro @samirguptaGI @SultanMahmoodMD @8pm Before we move forward, lets define the polyps: #GIJC
@GiJournal @AGA_Gastro @samirguptaGI @SultanMahmoodMD @8pm Post-polypectomy surveillance guidelines (for conventional adenomas/SPs) vary widely, and LOE is low. Therefore, the authors performed a prospective study (3 large cohort studies) to correlate the CRC risk with index screening precursors lesions. #GIJC

For #GIJournalClub – we will discussing the @NEJM article:
Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab in Unresectable HCC (IMbrave150 trial) by Dr. Richard Finn et al.
Expert opinion: @SeragHashem
Moderators: @AtoosaRabiee @jturnesv

nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

#livertwitter #GIJC #hpbcsm
Background:
- Sorafenib in 2008: improved OS + longer time to radiologic progression vs placebo
nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Single agent PD-L1 inhibitor w/o improved OS
- Nivoumab vs sorafenib: No statistically significant improvement in OS w/nivolumab
sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Background – drug mechanisms:
- Atezolizumab: a programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor
- Bevacizumab: a monoclonal antibody targeting the VEGF
- Sorafenib: multikinase inhibitor
