STAMPEDE is a long-running trial in advanced prostate cancer, in which nearly 12,000 men have taken part. Thanks to its multi-arm multi-stage platform design, STAMPEDE has tested many different treatments and directly led to improvements in the standard of prostate cancer care several times. 

This Trial Talk podcast mini-series will explore the trial’s journey from its inception in the early 2000s to the end of patient recruitment in March 2023. 

In the final part, Max Parmar and Nick James look back over the trial’s impact on clinical practice and platform trial design and look forward to STAMPEDE2, sharing their hopes for the future of prostate cancer research.

STAMPEDE (part 3): Impact and legacy with Max Parmar & Nick James

In this episode, Uzair talks to Dr. Bilal Khatri about his journey from Iqra University to Freiburg, where he is currently doing cutting-edge scientific research. We talked about the difference in how sciences are taught in Germany and Pakistan, why teaching the scientific method is important, and how innovation is going to transform our society.

We also talked about how young students from places like Pakistan can do cutting-edge research in Europe, with Bilal sharing some thoughts on how to go about settling in a non-English speaking country.

Bilal Khatri completed his Bachelors in Electronic Engineering from Iqra University, Karachi, Pakistan and his Masters in Microsystems Engineering from the University of Freiburg, Germany. In 2019, he completed his PhD on the development and characterization of functional composite materials for additive manufacturing (3D-printing) technologies. Since then, he is working as a postdoctoral researcher and academic at the Institute for Sustainable Systems Engineering (INATECH) at the University of Freiburg. His research interests include additive manufacturing, hybrid and composite materials with tailored properties, and the development of more sustainable materials and processes as well as circular strategies for materials used in the automotive and aerospace sectors.

Ты как запретный плод,
Небо, горе и вода.
Время идёт быстро…
Прошу, прости меня.

Что было в тёмном мире,
Где спали до поздна,
Я потерял твой след,
Хочу найти тебя (хочу найти).

Прошу, прости меня.

Что было в тёмном мире,
Где спали до поздна,
Я потерял твой след,
Хочу найти тебя (хочу найти).


А-а-а-а, ты ушла.
Я ищу тебя во снах, но ты ушла.
Я ищу тебя везде, но тебя там нет.
Оставь свой след.

Красивая малышка,
Посмотри в мои глаза.
Ты видишь, сколько боли в них?
Потерянная душа.

Ты как запретный плод,
Небо, горе и вода.
Время идёт быстро…
Прошу, прости меня.

Что было в тёмном мире,
Где спали до поздна,
Я потерял твой след,
Хочу найти тебя (хочу найти).

То, что было между нами,
никогда ты не поймёшь.
Не врал тебе, малышка,
Ты просто не поймёшь.

Случилось, как случилось…
Расскажу — ты бомбанёшь.

Ты как запретный плод,
Небо, горе и вода.
Небо, горе и вода…

Ты как запретный плод,
Небо, горе и вода.
Время идёт быстро,
Забываешь ты меня.

Малыш , я не хотел…
Прошу, прости меня.
