Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer Saved My Life - The ASCO Post. Makes the case for screening for pancreatic cancer in BRCA2 carriers #PRECEDE#pancreatic cancer #early detection#BRCA https://t.co/UHgQQcrdv0
A must read! Germline genetic testing after a cancer diagnosis: analysis of >1.3M individuals shows very low rates of testing (~7%) & marked inequities. https://t.co/33CvPMA7b2 @AllisonKurian
Take 🏡 points:
🔹Germline genetic testing with a “Test first, counsel later” approach is feasible with high patient and provider satisfaction in cancer patients.
🔹Next steps: implementation in a broader, multi-site center.
We’re excited to be on-site at #ASCO23 exhibiting 20 abstracts, including research that demonstrates how the tumor-normal match feature of our xT assay may detect germline alterations and inform patient care across different cancer types. Learn more: https://t.co/TgN2EALqf1
