Theresa & the other #clinicaltrial patient volunteers are the heroes of #oncology, these brave 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 make every drug advance possible. I'm lucky to be Theresa's doctor and I LOVE celebrating these milestones in @SarahCannonDocs clinic, just motivates us to go further faster! – at Alabama, USA

Fantastic data by @drsarahsam in #BRIDGET showing the activity of #tucatinib in pts with 🧠 mets....used in combo w/ standard therapies..building upon what we saw in HER2CLIMB. ⬆️ unmet need! #ESMO26 #ESMOAmbassadors @OncoAlert
#ESMO26: Practice-changing improvement in intracranial progression-free survival seen with the addition of tucatinib to standard therapy in HER2-positive metastatic #BreastCancer (#MBC) in the BRIDGET #ClinicalTrial. Read more ow.ly/Gc4550ZZO6K #InsightsbyESMO

🔥 Abema + fulvestrant after 1L CDK4/6i/AI improves PFS, PFS2 & time to chemo; numerical ↑OS 👉 CDK targeting remains valid post-CDK4/6i, but NOT a class effect! ✅ Abema (postMONARCH, EMBER-3), atirmociclib (FourLight-1), ribo (MAINTAIN) ⛔ Palbo (PACE, PALMIRA) #ESMO26

#ESMO26: Final results from the TALENT #ClinicalTrial show low pathological complete response rates with the antibody–drug conjugate (#ADC) trastuzumab deruxtecan in HR-positive, HER2-low #EarlyBreastCancer, as discussed by @breastDoktor #InsightsbyESMO ➡️ ow.ly/ZBwi50ZZXLm

TALENT- neoadj T-DXd in HR+/HER2-low #bcsm RCB0/1: 🔹 T-DXd alone: 16% 🔹 T-DXd + anastrozole: 17% 🔹 T-DXd → TC chemo: 17% *no pCRs w/out 8 cycles Despite high ORR ~66%, pCR LOW! We know w/ HR+ we don't get high pCRs rates, but still disappointing #ESMO26 #ESMOAmbassadors

#BSTRONGER 🤯 that 95.1% of pts w/ stage I-III TNBC had ctDNA at baseline!!! Wow. By C3, >80% pts had cleared ctDNA in response to chemo Molecular response was associated with tumor burden: 100% stage I 85% stage II 44% stage III, cleared #ESMO26 #ESMOAmbassadors @OncoAlert

Sandra Franco brings up such an important point 💡 in her discussion at #ESMO26. Personally, I feel like our QOL metrics are falling short. Too often we hear "QOL was maintained" and missing so much. These quantitative scales ⚖️ do these qualitative 💔 AEs disjustice. #bcsm

Ok, #bcsm, what do we make of exemestane looking worse than anastrazole by 4.9% in GIM3 FATA? Fluke? Otherwise, no difference between upfront or switch strategies. #ESMO26 #ESMOAmbassadors
