I'm pleased to launch a new series, "Science Matters." We’ll explore why science matters, and which scientific 'matters' are key to translating cancer breakthroughs into better care for patients everywhere. I hope you enjoy the first installment! connection.asco.org/do/science-mat…

🎉 As I celebrate my birthday month, I’m raising $$ for METAvivor the only U.S. nonprofit that awards MBC research grants that are both patient & peer-reviewed. With federal research dollars shrinking, your support is more critical than ever. TYIA donate.metavivor.org/give/318818/#!… #bcsm

2/ Our 2020 survey of 1,221 people with metastatic breast cancer found: • ⚠️ 86% experienced major side effects • 📉 43% had to skip treatments • ✓ 83% felt better after dose reductions • 🗣️ 92% want to talk about personalized 🧵

3/ The article aligns PCDI The Right Dose with FDA’s Project Optimus—part of a broader movement to rethink the “maximum tolerated dose” in favor of what patients can actually tolerate over time. 🧵

4/ Dosing isn’t just a science issue. It’s a quality of life issue—especially for people on treatment for the long haul. Read the article online  ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12… #DoseOptimization #MBC #Oncology 🧵

It warms my 🫀(and frankly brings a tear to my 👁️) to see Anne Loeser’s legacy live on (and grow!!): first citation in this Journal of Clinical Oncology publication. Patient-led PCDI The Right Dose is small, but mighty. ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

This is where the importance of government cancer funding comes in. My brilliant colleague designing a large trial to give less trastuzumab to HER2+ patients who achieve pCR.

Off the grid enjoying crisp mountain air, wildlife & no 📆/mtg alerts. A little adventure, a lot of nature, & just what I needed to hit pause, breathe & restore. Nature wins every time. Inbox =chaos, but soul=recharged. Self-care matters. #LiveLifeFully #Grateful

Pearls for talking to patients: 1) AI for 5 years is the goal, more has modest benefits. 2) 5 additional years reduces recurrence risk by 3-4%, most of these are new breast events 3) reduces distant recurrence by 2% (5 more years) 4) no OS benefit
