Fantastic to be back in Chicago ASCO annual meeting. It feels like old times apart from all the masks -- making the name tags more important than ever before. Program clearly demonstrates that we have continued to make advances these past 2+ years.

I am profoundly sad to learn of the passing of Angelo Di Leo. He was so thoughtful, gentle, and creative. Saw Angelo 6/2019 and struck by his bravery and straightforward approach to his illness. He will be missed by entire cancer community. Am thinking of his wife + daughter.

Thank you all for the congratulations and well wishes. I am thrilled and honored to be the ASCO president-elect-elect. This is a tough winter, but we all just have to get through it and the future is bright. Thanks again!

Looks like neratinib/capecitabine is a reasonable option for 3rd line therapy and beyond for patients with metastatic HER2+ breast cancer. It would be interesting to know how neratinib/capecitabine would compare with trastuzumab/capecitabine.

Final Kristine results are enormously encouraging. Almost certainly, a combination of molecular markers and clinical response can identify a relatively large group of patients who will ultimately be able to receive T-DM1 +P alone and avoid standard cytoxic chemotherapy. Bravo.

It is clear that women with ER+ breast cancer are at substantial risk of late recurrence in years 5-15. It is equally clear that extended hormonal therapy with currently available agents is only a small part of the solution. We need new approaches for this critical problem.

The DCIS controversy is news but not new. Need to identify women who will do fine w/o treatment. Prospective clinical trials needed now.
