ESOPEC Dr Hoeppner shows improved OS HR = 0.7 with FLOT vs CROSS regimen. FLOT also improved pCR rate 16% vs 10%. Not clear how adj Nivo would affect results.

Syed A. Ahmad The solution is MELD exception points and the expanded use of normothermic perfusion. Together they can help patients acquire better grafts and mitigate risk. This would allow us to be more aggressive with therapies like HAI as a bridge. /fin

Syed A. Ahmad Most recipients will need an aortic jump graft if they have HAI. This is morbid - it receives risk adjustment from UNOS. When combined with the livers currently used (DCD, discards, etc.) it presents a lot of combined synergistic morbidity. 2/3

Syed A. Ahmad I’ve always thought HAI has a role in bridging these patients (and ICCa patients) especially in countries with high incidence of chronic liver disease and relative graft shortage as compared to graft surplus.
