A patient recently asked me what my best advice was for women as they age and the top two by far are: Vaginal estrogen cream and weightlifting.

Update: ✅ 5 of the highly awaited BC trials with positive results ❌ one negative trial (but with positive OS) Results from the remaining trials expected in 2025. Breast oncology keeps moving extremely fast.

Patients treated with AI + OFS had a higher risk of CVD than patients treated with tamoxifen (HR 2.20 (95% CI, 1.57 to 3.09)) but the absolute incidence rate difference was low

For select breast cancer patients with complete response to neoadjuvant systemic therapy, radiotherapy alone without breast surgery may be feasible, as no tumor recurrences were observed at 5-year follow-up. ja.ma/426mLaK Henry Kuerer HelenMJohnsonMD Simona F. Shaitelman MD, EdM

Intratumoral immunotherapy with pembrolizumab and mRNA-2752 appeared safe and may effectively induce regression in high-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). ja.ma/41MjsGK

Outside of the POSITIVE trial, after stopping adjuvant endocrine therapy for pregnancy less than half of women resumed ET postpartum and they were twice as likely to recur as compared to women in the POSITIVE trial

A randomized trial of supplemental imaging for dense breast tissue showed that CEM and abbreviated MRI detected 3x as many invasive cancers as ABUS, with no significant difference in detection rate between CEM and MRI. Cancers found on CEM and MRI were 1/2 the size of those found
