Great news‼️🚨 Updates to germline testing in #breastcancer patients from @ASCO and the Society of Surgical Oncology emphasize the paramount importance of BRCA1/2 mutation testing in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, especially those ≤65 years of age, and in patients over 65 years of age, taking into account their personal history, relatives, ancestry, and eligibility for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARP) therapy. Recommendations: 🔵All newly diagnosed breast cancer patients ≤65 years of age should undergo BRCA1/2 mutation testing. 🟣Selected patients over 65 years of age should be evaluated based on history, ancestry, and eligibility for PARP therapy. 🟡Patients with recurrent breast cancer who are candidates for PARP inhibitor therapy should undergo the BRCA1/2 test, regardless of family history. 🟠Women with second primary cancer in the ipsilateral or contralateral breast should undergo BRCA1/2 testing. 🟢Patients with a history of breast cancer, without active disease, should be evaluated, selectively, according to age of diagnosis and personal and family risk. 🌟Expansion of testing to high-penetrance cancer susceptibility genes beyond BRCA1/2 is also recommended, especially in those with a supportive family history. Where necessary, moderate-penetrance gene testing may be offered to assess personal and family cancer risk, this comprehensive approach makes a huge difference in personalizing breast cancer therapy and prevention.🙌🏻 @OncoReporte @oncosurgeonjd @Dr_RShatsky @ProfAMThompson ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…





Excited to share this paper that discusses priorities to reducing race disparities in breast cancer. Grateful to @maretmaliniak and @LMoubadder for their support of this idea and contributions to the content. @WinshipAtEmory @EmoryRollins jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao…

Another study showing metformin doesn't have the effect on improving risk or outcome for #bcsm that we hoped it might. @ASCO #MA32 ascopost.com/news/september…
