FAST- Forward trial, Thursday 2nd July, 12-1pm (online)
The FAST-Forward clinical trial tested a shorter way of giving breast radiotherapy. Instead of having 15 sessions over three weeks, it looked at giving 5 sessions in just one week. In May 2021, this one-week treatment plan was added to official UK guidelines and is now being used in other countries too.
Speakers: Professor Murray Brunt (Professor of Clinical Oncology at Keele University), Professor Anna Kirby (Consultant Clinical Oncologist, Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust), Dr Fay Cafferty, (Principal Statistician, ICR-CTSU) and Helen Fleming, Patient Advocate.
