ASTRO ROCKS: 2022 ASTRO-Myovant Sciences-Pfizer Alliance New Combination (Relugolix-Radiation) Therapy Challenge

Under the ASTRO Advancing-Medicine-Together Scientific Challenges framework, the Myovant Sciences-Pfizer Alliance and ASTRO are partnering to host the 2022 New Combination (Relugolix-Radiation) Therapy Challenge to catalyze new collaborative research opportunities, and to facilitate radiation oncology leadership in scientific discovery with the Myovant Sciences-Pfizer Alliance in the space of multimodality combination therapy.

  • The intent of this challenge and potential medical impact
  • Relugolix
  • The Pfizer ISR Grant System for proposal submission
  • Any other general program administration-related topics
