7 months ago I received the double Pfizer vaccine. Yesterday I discovered that my anti-COVID antibodies had dropped to zero. Today I received a third dose. This maybe what the future looks like….

Phase II trial of SINGLE fraction (25 Gy) RT to celiac plexus for pain. Of 90 pts, 53% had pain decrease, decrease in opioid usage & improved QOL. Celiac plexus pain often debilitating & medication refractory. Single fx RT looks convenient & effective! #GI23 @Oncoalert

RCT of SINGLE fraction (8Gy) RT vs. BSC for painful liver metastases. Patients receiving RT had improved pain on validated assessments. Also trend to improved OS (not powered). Single fraction RT easy to administer (whole liver), cost effective, & convenient. #GI23 OncoAlert
