Intermittent #fasting makes your hair shorter and thicker (if you shave your hair previously), a new study in @cellpress.bsky.social reports www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...
The next big thing in Triple Negative Breast Cancer:
VEGF/PD-1 Bispecifics.
Wonderful discussion by Dr. Thomas Grinda on the prospects.
Several Phase III studies planned.

Dr. Tesch poster looking at TILs in very young women (<40 yrs)
Including all tumor subtypes- TNBC, HR+ and HER-3
TILs vary by recent pregnancy, BRCA status etc.
Here TILs not associated w/ ethnicity
TILs again predict pCR

@oncoalert.bsky.social
Great slide highlighting not only are TILs predictive of pCR...it also translates to being prognostic beyond pCR for good outcome and DFS.
Seems like we have a LOT of data on TILs now, why aren't they standardly provided on path reports???🧐

Do systemic responses to ICI (eg irAEs) associate w outcomes?
Nice use of existing basket studies by @pateloncology.bsky.social @eladsharonmd.bsky.social Razelle Kurzrock et al
Isolated tumor cells (ITCs) after neoadj can’t chemotherapy have frequently been considered positive lymph nodes when considering axillary management and adjuvant therapy.
Important global study that suggests, as @maryamlustberg.bsky.social notes, less may be more!

“Together, the findings suggest that the information sought reflects mental state and shapes it, creating a loop that may perpetuate mental health problems.”

Excellent review, congrats. Really enjoyed it.
Very interesting focus on senescence in Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol! @natureportfolio.bsky.social . Concepts, protocols, therapies and many more.. www.nature.com/collections/... @oncosky 🧪

What constitutes visceral crisis in #breast #cancer ? #bcsm
Updated treatment algorithms for breast cancer now include adjuvant ribociclib and inavolisib, along with key trial names. Thrilled to see we're truly running out of space in HR+ disease—progress is here, with much more to come for all breast cancer subtypes!
Only 3 weeks to #SABCS24, a meeting that promises to significantly impact the way we treat breast cancer. It will feature phase 3 data with novel SERDs, novel ADCs, immunotherapy, ctDNA monitoring, important biomarker analyses & so much more. Here’s my top 10 abstracts list— see you in San Antonio!

“Uncovering the anatomic & biological intricacies of residual disease will allow for ⬆️ precision in postneoadjuvant treatments, moving beyond the binary paradigm of RD vs path CR, toward more tailored rescue strategies.” 💯
