Fantastic to have hosted the @IBC_Australia for a meet, tour and description of our work into #inflammatory breast cancer

#Inflammatorybreastcancer Preclinical study into IBC is hampered by a lack of clinically-relevant animal models; a major road block to new markers and therapies. More effort is required to develop models that replicate the human disease https://t.co/bEwlPulgSd

Today’s turn out at the ONJ walk @ONJCancerCentre was the biggest yet! Inspirational to see her, to meet the researchers @ONJCRI and there is merit for medicinal marijuana; we just need further research to establish its utility.

#Inflammatorybreastcancer As IBC is a highly aggressive disease, breast reconstruction is largely not offered to patients in the short-medium term due to concerns about treatment delay, margin positivity, recurrence, and poor long‐term survival.

It's #breastcancerawarenessmonth, so are you breast aware? While not everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will present with symptoms, it's still important to know the normal look and feel of your breasts, and see your doctor if you notice any changes. https://t.co/FGgZdvjih6

Members of the Translational Breast Cancer Program participated in yesterday’s @ONJCancerCentre @ONJCRI Wellness Walk and Research Run. Over $900k raised! Members of this research group investigate new therapies and molecular targets in IBC & metastasis. @Bmp4TW @delphine_merino

The PATINA trial aims to investigate if people with metastatic breast cancer could benefit from the addition of a new drug, palbociclib, when given in combination with anti-HER2 therapy and endocrine therapy. https://t.co/MEtRbKIX25

IBC facts: #1

#Inflammatorybreastcancer accounts for 2% of breast cancers, but 10% of deaths from metastatic disease. To beat IBC we need to beat cancer spread! Conversely, more research into IBC could translate to better therapeutic options for non-IBC patients with metastasis!

[IBC Network Foundation Australia @IBC_Australia]

Time article on metastatic breast cancer. More effort (funding; as there are already plenty of groups that want to evaluate metastatic disease) needs to go into research and treatments. https://t.co/Rdl9BNXvk7

[The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Network UK @IBCNetworkUK]

So Pinktober has arrived ! Education and research are desperately needed into this rare and aggressive cancer. Awareness is not enough. Please help us to Join the Dots to enable our work to continue, please tell people about #inflammatorybreastcancer https://t.co/QPNcqYgQbe
