@anzgog has launched the State of the Nation Uterine Cancers in Australia call to action “Reversing the Rise” - a devastating read of the impact of this lesser known, often unspoken yet preventable cancer. A Global cancer issue & great to see Australia taking the lead!

@BelindaKiely on Goal 7: Access to supportive and palliative care. Key takeaways: 55% of patients report never being offered services; palliative care still too late; referrals to peer/integrative supports lag. Call to action for 2025–2035: universal, MDT-embedded, funded supportive care. Normalise the early introduction of palliative care. Support services are essential, not optional. #ABC8 #SupportiveCare #ABCLisbon #advancedbreastcancer

Navigating prognosis and end-of-life communications in #AdvancedBreastCancer is difficult for HCPs, people with the disease and their caregivers. Greater multidisciplinary guidance is needed!

Great presso by @Lisa_Beatty re uptake & engagement with Finding My Way Advanced. Uptake generally ⬆️ than in early stage survivors, but ⬇️ in older people. Many start modules, but less complete them, suggesting self tailoring. Impact on distress & QOL coming soon #BCT2025
