I had a fantastic experience presenting the findings of the pivotal phase III results from the PARTIQoL trial at #ASTRO24! I was honored to share insights into the trial on the quality of life impacts of proton therapy vs. IMRT for localized prostate cancer.

Thank you for sharing and highlighting this important work, Leanne Woods-Burnham, Ph.D. Prostate cancer studies need more diversity, particularly Black men who typically have a higher prevalence of HER2 overexpression!

Special THANK YOU to Kimberly-Clark, their team at the Depend brand and Dallas Cowboys Pro Football Hall of Famer, Emmitt Smith, for your support of the Prostate Cancer Foundation for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. And while this prevalent disease can have a 99.9% survival rate if detected early, many men avoid taking action because of the "taboos" surrounding the subject of screenings and side effects. Your efforts are helping to normalize the conversations around men's health, motivating more men to get checked and helping to raise money for PCF to continue to do its groundbreaking research. Y’all rock! 👊🏻 Note: You can learn more about how to support the campaign here: https://lnkd.in/ea3bs9sw #marketing #advertising #branding #causemarketing #sportsbiz #nfl #cancer #prostatecancer #prostatecancerawarenessmonth

Life comes at you fast. Romain Grosjean knows all too well from his near death experience and so does Clayton Chitwood, a #prostatecancer patient. More men need to start the conversation to get screened early. #ItsYourLife #PCF Take our screening quiz today or send it to a loved one: https://lnkd.in/gCmX9PNu
