Michael takes a more positive tone, with the recycling of aspirin to reduce recurrence risk for PI3K pathway cancers.Josh promised he will have the right audio this episode - thanks to our astute listener who told us last time!Studies discussed in this episode:ALASCCADestiny-CRC01For more episodes, resources and blog posts, visit www.inquisitiveonc.comPlease find us on Twitter @InquisitiveOnc!If you want us to look at a specific trial or subject, email us at [email protected] courtesy of Taryn SilverMusic courtesy of AlisiaBeats: https://pixabay.com/users/alisiabeats-39461785/Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.
