Small cell lung cancer is a rare fast-growing lung cancer. It can affect anyone but it typically affects people who have a long history of smoking tobacco. Healthcare providers can cure some people if the disease is found early; for others, they can help them live longer. The only way to prevent small cell lung cancer is to stop smoking. Genetic testing can help to detect the most common genetic changes that we test for in lung cancer are in the genes EGFR, KRAS, and ALK. #smallcelllungcancer #fastgrowinglungcancer #genetictesting

May is World Bladder Cancer Awareness Month. The biggest risk factor for bladder cancer is smoking. It is probably one of the most aggressive forms of cancer to treat. It has two forms – one is non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and the other is muscle invasive. Molecular genetic testing may help identify risk of bladder cancer early on or even before it start. #bladdercancerawareness #moleculargenetictesting

Claudia Marchetti invites you to the next interactive ESGO Prevention webinar—on ovarian cancer prevention! 📆 Feb 28, 19h CET 👉 https://buff.ly/3kdCwaI 🔸Despite the advances in treatment survival rates for ovarian cancer are still far away from our expectations. On the other hand, there is important scientific evidence showing a possibility to prevent these cancers using genetic screening, defining the risk of lifetime cancer development & using either chemical or surgical prophylaxis to those high-risk populations. This webinar will summarize the existing evidence from the most well-known European experts. 🔸Speakers Ranjit Manchanda, Claudia Marchetti, Eric Leblanc 🔸Moderators: Murat Gultekin, Maria Kyrgiou #ovariancancer #webinar #gynonc #cancerprevention #endcancer
