Description

Compassion and creativity are vitally important these days in cancer care. The old rule of thumb, especially in brain cancer, of standard of care just isn't enough anymore. Patients and families need a voice, and need to know that they are heard when asking questions about clinical trials, supplements, holistic options, and cross-collaboration across neuro-oncology care.


Enter Dr.'s Soma Sengupta and Dominique Higgins of UNC School of Medicine in North Carolina.


On today's episode (in total the 49th episode for Game On Glio), kicking off brain cancer awareness month, I sit down with them to discuss the crucial need for elevating patient voices, the importance of clinical trials like IGV-001, out of the box treatments (like GammaTile), and the novel way the doctors at UNC are helping patients reach new heights in their care.
