74. ESMO 2023 - Upper GI and Hepatobiliary Cancer

Next up on the ESMO 2023 rollercoaster is an episode that is likely to be the shortest in our series: upper gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary oncology. As always, this remains a very challenging subarea of medical oncology, both in the clinical and trial spheres. However, our esteemed colleagues at ESMO remain undaunted by this challenge, and thus several studies of interest bear discussing. Will any of these studies lead to massive upheavals for clinicians and patients alike? For that answer, you'll have to listen on.
