Eleonora Teplinsky: My top 5 Breast/GYN Cancer Advances in 2023
Eleonora Teplinsky shared on X/Twitter:
“My top 5 Breast/GYN Cancer Advances in 2023–> #4: Updates on Molecular Testing. This year:
– We saw an increased focus on genetic testing to see if a person inherited a genetic mutation that increases cancer risk (still not being done as much as it should).
– Molecular testing of the tumor to guide treatment (i.e., ESR1 mutation for elacestrant in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer, BRCA/HRD testing for potential use of PARP inhibitors in ovarian cancer, MSI/MMR testing in endometrial cancer, and more).
– Increasing use of non-invasive liquid biopsies to guide treatment (and in the future, hopefully screen for recurrence).”
