🫃Pregnancy alters absorption, metabolism, blood volume — yet most medicines are never tested in pregnant women.

🏅This is a breakthrough step in enrolling pregnant women in trials.

Start of a great session #bcsm #sabcs24

people with PIK3CA mutations on elacestrant monotherapy did worse than people without alterations in the PI3K pathway. #sabcs24

Another up and coming (ie, may well be fda approved in the near future) agent is imlunestrant, as monotherapy or in combo with abemaciclib #SABCS24 @breastcancerdoc.bsky.social

The conference hadn’t even started when the ABC Global Alliance & MBCA brought together a full room of oncologists & advocates for the Dos & Don’ts of Communication on Metastatic Breast Cancer.

Our table had an excellent exchange on how progression discussions happen across the world.

Brilliant questions from @EllenLands - could we use ctDNA here? Right now NO surveillance tests are done based on studies showing no improvement in OS but the studies that led to this recommendation were done DECADES ago, with X-rays and ultrasound 🦖🦕. #SABCS24

Building on previous reported studies, endocrine therapy plus targeted for the win. (PADMA Trial). #bcsm #sabcs24

Elacestrant is being studied in combo with LOTS of partners. Side effects are generally the same as when these drugs are paired with currently available endocrine agents. #SABCS24

New report using SEER database between 2004–2021 shows increasing rates of de novo metastatic breast cancer in women in the US - with de novo distant-stage incidence rates 55% higher in Black women compared to White women.

Dr Hal Burstein of @dfcibreastonc.bsky.social sums up the emerging landscape of endocrine agents in MBC and his thoughts on possible new combos. #SABCS24

I cannot wrap my head around sitting in Hall 1 of #SABCS24 & hearing about a drug with ~50% grade 3 diarrhea!

Do we understand what that means for a person?

Did you know that 9 in 10 Nigerians who live with hepatitis B virus are unaware of their infection status and are not receiving treatment for the deadly virus?

In many countries worldwide, the hepatitis B virus vaccine is given to children and included in routine immunization programmes.
