Changing the Face of Cancer

Paxman Scalp Cooling
Changing the Face of Cancer

Chemotherapy is a powerful cancer treatment, but its side effects have a real impact on a patient’s physical and mental wellbeing – so how is oncology care tackling these debilitating effects? We sit down with renowned oncologists, clinical researchers and medical thought leaders, to discuss the development and practice of side effect management, such as scalp cooling, and challenging healthcare preconceptions. This podcast will investigate how cancer treatment pathways can focus on patient-centric care, the barriers faced, and the steps the global oncology space are taking to integrate cryotherapy to improve quality of care for patients.

    What’s Next? The Future of Scalp Cooling Trials and Research

    "We need more peer to peer sharing through conferences and grand rounds. We need to look at research into increasing efficacy in under-served populations, different head shapes, and anthracyclines." Richard Paxman sits down with oncology thought leaders and renowned clinical trial experts, to review scalp cooling trial data and results from the past decade, and consider what needs to be looked at next to improve efficacy within under-served populations.  The group argue that scalp cooling tolerability and efficacy is well established and now is the time to look at more specific determinants of outcome, and push for individuals to identify the gaps that need to be addressed and carry out the trials to address them.    Bullet points: Many areas require further investigation to ensure that scalp cooling can be proven to be effective for more diverse populations, and protocols can be optimized to ensure the findings can be put into practice in clinic  Lab based research to understand chemotherapy and the impact of scalp cooling at a cellular level is the key to unlocking more efficacious treatment, especially in treatment scenarios which are more challenging Shownotes: Visit The Scalp Cooling Study Library.

    Why Equity Matters in Cancer Care

    "Always offer, it is up to patient to figure out whether or not they can afford something, and not up to us to assume whether they can afford something"    Diversity and equity are currently high on the healthcare agenda - however there are still noticeable inconsistencies when it comes to side effect management in cancer care. Maimah Karmo, Founder of Tigerlily Foundation, sits down with oncologists and patient advocates to discuss why having appropriate individualized care is incredibly important for minority populations, with many chemotherapy side effects centred on skin toxicities and hair loss. They ask the questions – are patients of color receiving the same standard of cancer care as Caucasian patients? And what needs to be done to ensure that all patients are provided with equitable and accessible tailored supportive care? Bullet points: Equitable side effect management options, including scalp cooling, should be a viable choice for patients of color undergoing chemotherapy The lack of clinical research that focuses on patients of color is problematic, particularly as there are doubts around the efficacy of scalp cooling for patients with type 3 & 4 hair, despite positive anecdotal patient experiences A lack of appropriate hair care support and guidance from clinicians stems from a lack of education, placing an unnecessary burden onto the patient as a result Bias around financial capability means that patients of color are not being offered scalp cooling    Shownotes: Tigerlily Foundation Clinical Trial Program Scalp Cooling for Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia in Patients of Color: A Clinical and Mechanistic Study Dilawari A, et al.

    Back to Basics: Why Protocols are the KEY to Efficacious Side-Effect Management

    "We talk to our patients a lot about being self-empowered – this is your opportunity to really self-manage this and take some responsibility in terms of the outcome." Dr Lindsay Peterson sits down with a multidisciplinary group of physicians, to discuss the wider picture surrounding protocols within chemotherapy side-effect management. They consider the often challenging integration of practices such as scalp cooling, and discuss their tried and tested approaches, detailed workflows, and the importance of interdisciplinary buy-in within their medical institutions, which has had a real impact on outcomes – and simultaneously empowered their patients as a result.   Shownotes: Peterson LL, et al.

    The Age of the Oncodermatologist: Championing Preventative Side-Effect Management

    "Just about every single patient entering a cancer center who is likely to undergo treatment is a potential patient where an onco-dermatologist has a role" Dr Nicole LeBoeuf, Dr Beth McLellan, and Dr Ian Tattersall, have all chosen to specialise in the skin toxicity side effects of patient’s undergoing cancer treatment. In a discussion led by Dr Corina van den Hurk, they talk about being embedded within their respective oncology units, the side effects they witness daily affecting the skin, hair, and nails of patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and the lasting impact this can have on quality of life. With patients often referred to their services once treatment has finished, they explain why dermatological interventions can be significantly more effective if they are positioned as a preventative measure in the treatment timeline, as opposed to a curative measure at the end.   Shownotes: Lacouture ME, et al.

    The Clinicians Breaking Away from the ‘Taxanes Only’ Mentality

    "Increased hair regrowth rates really was our pitch to help some of our oncologists who were less optimistic about scalp cooling with anthracyclines." Oncologist Dr Julie Nangia sits down with oncology thought leaders from Japan, Germany, and South Korea, to discuss what unites their cancer care practice – prescribing scalp cooling for patients on anthracycline regimens.  Despite hair retention with scalp cooling on anthracycline regimens generally being lower in comparison to taxanes, the group discuss why having a ‘taxanes only’ mentality is limiting patient choice. They argue that ‘successful’ hair retention is subjective, and rates that might be seen as a failure by a physician may be seen as successful by a patient. They also discuss the faster hair regrowth benefits of scalp cooling, the longer-term effects of which can motivate patients to continue with scalp cooling even if significant hair loss is sustained, helping patients move on from treatment faster.   Shownotes:  Kinoshita T, et al.

    How Cryocompression is Fast Becoming the Future of CIPN Treatment

    "In using cryocompression to prevent CIPN, we have several advantages in terms that there is a huge need being driven by the patients themselves, and we have the physicians who are open to adopting newer technologies and try them out in clinical trials than there were a few years ago." Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is an unseen, but lifelong and potentially debilitating  chemotherapy side effect. With very few treatment interventions, prevention and reversal of CIPN has been largely unsuccessful to this point. Clinicians have witnessed patients using off the shelf cryotherapy options, but they are unmeasured, untested, and often ineffective. Dr Charles Loprizini sits down with oncologists and researchers to discuss what we already know about CIPN’ its impact on physical and psychological quality of life, and why the development of a new cryocompression device is showing real promise in preventing the condition as the  next stage of trials begins.    Shownotes: Loprinzi C, et al.

    Why We Should Be Talking About the Psychosocial Impacts of Chemotherapy

    "The changes are so rapid and so quick. The mental effects of hair loss is huge – the passion and the empathy from our clinicians is imperative."  Professor Catherine Paterson sits down with Dr Amy Comander, RN Trisha Marsolini, Dr Eleonora Teplisnky, and patient advocate Asha Miller, to discuss why cancer treatment is not only physically challenging, but how the psychosocial side-effects of chemotherapy can send tidal waves through a patient’s life for many years.  They discuss their own holistic approaches to patient-centred care, Maricia recounts where she felt the support was missing within her own treatment, and the moments in which she believed her overall wellbeing was being appropriately treated, not just the cancer.   Shownotes: Paterson C, et al.
