This is great news. Even our president should not determine what is fake and real news based on whether the news is favorable to the administration. Representation of different views is free speech. This is a key tenet of what our country was founded on.

Breaking News: Major TV networks — ABC, CBS, Fox News and NBC — agreed to suspend their pooled coverage of President Trump after the White House blocked CNN from its duties. https://t.co/pyHbL9VwwD

10 new @FDA indications in #bcsm in 20 weeks - May to September, 2026.

Three firsts in there: first PROTAC in any cancer, first CDK4/6 inhibitor in HER2+ #bcsm, first drug approval triggered by ctDNA prior radiographic progression.

#clinicaltrials win! Patients win!

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

Good to have this option. Note approval only in mESR1.

[Oncology Brothers @OncBrothers]

Imlunestrant + Abema now @FDA ✅ based off EMBER-3: Ph III, #Imlunestrant +/-#Abemaciclib in HR+ mESR1 advanced BC!

- Imlunestrant alone for mESR1 approved.
- Combo⬆️ mPFS w/all comers (11.1mos vs 5.5mos)
- If co-PIK3CA, Capi or this combo?

@dr_yakupergun @PTarantinoMD @OncBrothers Sorry not to be clear. Non-inferiority vs fulvestrant to allow an oral alternative. Currently they are only approved in superiority trials in ESR1m

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

@conni_t212 @PTarantinoMD Am guessing with no details that this represents tumor heterogeneity. We see this…..

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

@Dr_RShatsky Well said @Dr_RShatsky @dr_yakupergun

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

@Larvol Thank you

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

@PTarantinoMD @OncBrothers We need non inferiority trials.

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

@PTarantinoMD @OncBrothers SERENA-4 trial did not meet primary objective of statistically significant improvement in PFS however a numerical improvement was observed 

Similar to persevera 1st line Rx isn’t better with an oral SERD. Not surprising given low ESR1m but perplexing given LidERA?

[Hope Rugo @hoperugo]

Today is a day to remember and honor the heros who saved so many lives on 9/11. The ordinary people with families and loved ones who died due to the cowardice of terrorists. We need to remember what America once stood for and can again. Truth, justice and freedom for all.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

The Shame of Donald Trump

Donald Trump skipped the 9/11 memorial because it would not let him be the main character.

Twenty-five years after the attacks, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush stood at Ground Zero and honored the 2,977 people murdered that day. The sitting president of the United States could not be bothered.

The New York ceremony does not allow political speeches. It is for the dead. That was a deal-breaker. So Trump went to the Pentagon, where he could grab a microphone and turn remembrance into a performance.

Four former presidents showed up for the victims. Trump showed up for Trump.

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

My Lord.

@JoeBiden, 83 years old, battling Stage 4 cancer that has spread to his bones, stood for HOURS alongside @DrBiden as the names of 9/11 victims were read.

Donald Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 event at the Pentagon.

One showed respect despite his pain. The other couldn't even stay awake.

Trump is an embarrassment to the nation and the office he holds.

Really says it all.

Camizestrant approved in patients with emerging mESR1 by ctDNA in the absence of PD. @OncoAlert @OncBrothers
