When breast cancer is first diagnosed as metastatic (stage IV), meaning that breast cancer has already spread to other parts of the body, it is called de novo MBC. Because de novo MBC has not been treated with any breast cancer drugs, the cancer cells generally respond better to treatment than recurrent MBC. As a result, people with de novo MBC generally have better outcomes than people with recurrent MBC. Clinical trials and other research are studying ways to treat de novo MBC.

Today is World Cancer Research Day, which is a day that acknowledges the need for continued cancer research and celebrates the achievements made so far in cancer research. Today, we want to take a moment to spread awareness about the importance of clinical trials. Clinical trials, especially people who participate in clinical trials, play a vital role in advancing cancer research and improving patient outcomes. Our mission is to make the consideration of breast cancer clinical trials the norm rather than the exception. We also aim to provide people with patient-friendly information about clinical trials and the important role they play in advancing cancer research. If you or someone you know is interested in breast cancer clinical trials, visit BreastCancerTrials.org to get started finding a trial that may be right for you. . . . #worldcancerday #NonProfit #HealthEquity #breastcancerawareness #breastcancercure #cancer #earlyscreening #clinicaltrials #cancertrials #breastcancertrials #breastcancerresearch #breastcancertreatment #breastcancersupport #clinicalresearch #cancerresearch #Hopeforbreastcancer #Fightagainstbreastcancer #Breastcancertherapy #breastcancermedicine #breastcancerpatients #womenshealth #breastcancercommunity #diseaseresearch #datacollection #BCSM #cancerdata #researchdata #findacure

Today is National Non-Profit Day which recognizes the work and impact of non-profit organizations. BreastCancerTrials.org is a program of the non-profit organization, Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative. Our mission is to accelerate breast cancer research by encouraging the consideration of breast cancer clinical trials as the norm vs. the exception. We make it easier to find breast cancer trials by offering free matching services and plain-language summaries of all US-based trials. Non-profits like ours rely on the support of people who believe in their mission. There are many ways to support our mission, including following our social media channels, sharing your story with us, or considering a donation. Learn more about us at BreastCancerTrials.org and/or consider sharing your story about participating in a clinical trial by emailing us at bctrials@quantumleaphealth.org Thank you for your consideration! . . . #nationalnonprofitday #NonProfit #HealthEquity #breastcancerawareness #breastcancercure #cancer #earlyscreening #clinicaltrials #cancertrials #breastcancertrials #breastcancerresearch #breastcancertreatment #breastcancersupport #clinicalresearch #cancerresearch #Hopeforbreastcancer #Fightagainstbreastcancer #Breastcancertherapy #breastcancermedicine #breastcancerpatients #womenshealth #breastcancercommunity #diseaseresearch #datacollection #BCSM #cancerdata #researchdata #findacure

In clinical trials, a washout period describes the length of time that someone enrolled in a trial must not receive any treatment before receiving the trial’s experimental treatment. They are sometimes required before beginning a trial or in between treatments, and are typically 2-6 weeks long. Clinical trial regulators are working with researchers and patients to determine more appropriate guidelines for washout periods. In April 2024, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued new guidelines about washout periods. Click here to read more about washout periods, and the FDA’s new guidelines around them: https://lnkd.in/gtWzR9_u Thank you to Celerion, Eli Lilly and Company, and Targeted Oncology for more providing more information. . . . #NonProfit #HealthEquity #breastcancerawareness #breastcancercure #cancer #earlyscreening #clinicaltrials #cancertrials #breastcancertrials #breastcancerresearch #breastcancertreatment #breastcancersupport #clinicalresearch #cancerresearch #Hopeforbreastcancer #Fightagainstbreastcancer #Breastcancertherapy #breastcancermedicine #breastcancerpatients #womenshealth #breastcancercommunity #diseaseresearch #datacollection #BCSM #cancerdata #researchdata #findacure

We’ve provided an overview of the different types of imaging scans you may receive if you have MBC, and now, we continue a deeper dive into each scan. First, we are starting with MRI scans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans produce pictures of the body that are created by using magnetic energy rather than x-ray energy. MRI scans are most useful for seeing metastasis in the brain and spinal cord and sometimes the liver. Click here to read more about MRI scans, what they are used for in MBC, and for clinical trials that are studying MRI scans in people with MBC: https://lnkd.in/eJnEM_Kj Thank you to American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), Cancer Network, and OncLive for providing more information on this topic. . . . #NonProfit #HealthEquity #breastcancerawareness #breastcancercure #cancer #earlyscreening #clinicaltrials #cancertrials #breastcancertrials #breastcancerresearch #breastcancertreatment #breastcancersupport #clinicalresearch #cancerresearch #Hopeforbreastcancer #Fightagainstbreastcancer #Breastcancertherapy #breastcancermedicine #breastcancerpatients #womenshealth #breastcancercommunity #diseaseresearch #datacollection #BCSM #cancerdata #researchdata #findacure

Toxic positivity is the pressure to always stay positive and avoid negative emotions while dealing with a difficult experience such as living with MBC. Clinical trials are studying ways to improve the mental health of people living with MBC and may help you deal with toxic positivity and experience genuine emotions. Additionally, exploring clinical trials as an option for treatment and care is one way to take charge of your physical health, which may improve your mental health.
