Could not agree more, congrats Nancy Lin, MD!! #bcsm #brainmets

So wonderful to watch Nancy Lin, MD accept the Massachusetts Clinical Oncology Society Distinguished Clinical Research Award last night.

She has had a hand in nearly every MBC brain metastases treatment option for patients. She lifts up all around her and is an exemplary human ❤️

⁦⁦FDA Oncology⁩ approves capivasertib (Truqap), AKTi, with fulvestrant for HR+/HER2- MBC, harboring one or more PIK3CA, AKT1, or PTEN alteration following prior endocrine-based therapy. 3rd biomarker based approval. #bcsm ⁦⁦OncoAlert⁩ onclive.com/view/fda-appro…

Attendees of #ABCLisbon had the opportunity to attend a GRASP in-person Poster Walkthrough on Nov 10 to discuss the research presented during ABC Global Alliance’s ABC7 conference in Portugal.

Wonderful to see AnneL being remembered in the #FriendsAM23 session on dosing. The impact she has made on this issue with her work on #PCDI is like no other!

Amazing #ABCLisbon conference and so grateful for the friendships I’ve gained through advocacy. Wonderful to see all of you ladies!! ❤️

The GRASP team is in Portugal this week attending #ABCLisbon , the major int'l conf. for advanced breast cancer. The poster session will feature our staple Poster Walkthroughs, bringing scientists and patients together to discuss the science presented at the meeting. ABC Global Alliance

This is the reality of MBC - all of the below.

Climate change affects us all- a talk about the intersection of climate change and risk of death from lung cancer. I am so sad I missed this conference!

Great talk from Dr Matthias Preusser on the emerging role of ADCs in pts with brain metastases. Ongoing studies with T-DXd, Dato-DXD, and Patritumab-DXd!

Such amazing clinicians and researchers among the #ASCOQLTY23 Featured Voices! But it's a real bummer that patient advocates aren't represented! I know Dr. Kelly Shanahan will be there, and is speaking!

This week in DC we marched to the Capitol to advocate for #MetastaticBreastCancer at METAvivor Stage IV #Stampede . We asked for ⬆️ #MBC research funding, sponsor legislation➡️Cancer Drug Parity Act, & MBC Access to Care Act, & performed IV: Our Lives! My ♥️ is full

Doctor/clinician friends - Family member in Pittsburgh requires open heart bypass surgery (high risk complex case; allergic to heparin). Any recs for cardiac surgeons/teams/institutions welcome. In process of scheduling an appt Cleveland Clinic.

MBC sucks but I am lucky to learn from these incredible women and call them friends. swaggsheila Julia Maués Abigail Johnston, Esq (she/her)

In honor of #MetastaticBreastCancerAwarenessDay , BCRF fundraiser and metastatic breast cancer patient Jen Feinberg, spoke with Dr. Nancy Lin about brain metastasis as well as the progress made and challenges present in HER2-positive breast cancer.

Newer ADCs are getting better at penetration into the brain and CSF.

This is huge and we need to expand on this in future drug development for this high need population.

Could not agree more! Allowing for patients with “stable #brainmets ” on #clinicaltrials is not enough. #bcsm

So fun to meet and talk #science with Manisha Bahl y'day. Thanks so much GRASP for creating more opportunities for #cancer patients to connect with cancer researchers. #patientengagement #bettertogether #knowyourcancer Thanks Cancer!

Busy busy day...GRASP at ILC23 Session 1 is done, now for labs/provider appt & then TurningPoint's grand opening. Ironic that this will be my 2nd ribbon cutting with Andre Dickens ! The 1st was Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University Midtown!
