@shinyblackshoe.bsky.socialReposted by @bopa.org.ukFriday evening at #BOPA2026 is poster night. This year is another record breaking year for posters. I'll be sharing some thoughts on that later. But for now - here is my poster.
@chloewaterson.bsky.socialReposted by @bopa.org.ukPresenting my work on real-world outcomes for patients with mHSPC treated with enzalutamide at #BOPA2026 this year.
If you've ever had doubts about the effect on outcomes of dose reducing, hopefully this will help to reassure! Patients on dose reductions did at least as well as those without.

@shinyblackshoe.bsky.socialReposted by @bopa.org.ukFrustrated that perhaps 23 years ago, I could have heard almost the same words from the top. Perhaps less so the community pharmacy but everything else were the same words

@shinyblackshoe.bsky.socialReposted by @bopa.org.ukNow I'm normally no fan of early access schemes. But if one was ever needed (preferably an EAMS or does Project Or is still exist?) it would be for daraxonrasib in pancreatic
Do we know why not?
Would #BOPA2026 want it?
