Male Breast Cancer

New publication from Dr. Leone and colleagues (@jorgeeavila, Dr. Herrick, @DrAttai) on treatments for breast cancer in men: late effects and impact on quality of life. #bcsm #MaleBreastCancer (@DFCI_BreastOnc)

Happy to share with you our article: "Treatments for breast cancer in men: late effects and impact on quality of life" in collaboration with Dr Leone and @DrAttai #bcsm #malebreastcancer https://t.co/yc5Td3Ikb7 (@jorgeeavila)

Congratulations on an important paper that will undoubtedly advance the field. I do wonder though why the male breast was not included? #malebreastcancer is rare, but real and the persistent lack of basic science on it holds back advances for men with this disease. (@obogler)

This is so important. Many people do not realize the BRCA genes cause an increased risk for prostate and pancreatic cancers which can affect men (in addition to male breast cancer). Men also may have sisters & daughters (and brothers & sons) who are at risk. (@HHampel1)

exciting molecular tumor board this morning included CCD6-RET fusion in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and NTRK-ETV6 fusion in triple negative male breast cancer. Seek and ye shall find @oncoalert @mtmdphd @Dr_R_Kurzrock (@antonyruggeri)
