Vedi et al. show the feasibility and efficacy of a rapid whole-genome sequencing workflow for childhood #cancer patients, reducing mean turnaround time from 42 to 3 days and improving detection of clinically actionable variants

A year ago, “Beautiful” (Bootsy Collins remix) premiered during #LightUpMBC. 💗 Michele Young & Patti Collins joined Lincoln Ware to share why it matters: MBC needs more research, more treatment, and more visibility. Watch & share. 🎶 #MetastaticBreastCancer #OncoSky #CanSky @metavivor.bsky.social

No one knows exactly how many people have MBC. Registries only record stage at first diagnosis, so recurrences go uncounted. 42,000+ US women will die of breast cancer, nearly all from MBC.

I asked my local govt to proclaim October 13 Metastatic BC Awareness Day. I know a bit of some on the Board, so I wasnt surprised when they said yes. But I did 🩷 seeing them pin MBC pins on when I finished saying a few words. MBC kills 117/day in the US alone & rates for some are 📈 #canSky #OncoSky

It's time for this week's #ACSFriday5... on a Saturday!

Because even a day late, these great new papers from our ACS researchers deserve their moment in the spotlight:

Only 51% of AI/AN women over 40 report a recent mammogram vs. 68% of white women. Closing the gap takes culturally informed outreach, screening close to home & timely treatment. Learn more: American Indian Cancer Foundation, NCUIH, NIHB, IHS. Source: @americancancersoc.bsky.social #CanSky #OncoSky

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Native women. They’re diagnosed less often than white women, yet 6% more likely to die from it. According to @americancancersoc.bsky.social, since 1989, US #breastcancer death rates have dropped 44%, but not for Native women. #OncoSky #CanSky

The Patient Centered Dosing Initiative brings attention to how treatment doses in metastatic breast cancer need to be better understood. This team has been changing minds since 2020 thru patient-led research. Learn more in a new podcast #CanSky #OncoSky

Move more, eat well, stay ahead. Exercise & healthy habits can help keep cancer at bay & lower the odds of it coming back. Integrative care, like exercise & diet, is one of the things we're fighting for.

A study in Biomarker Research highlights the clinical utility of multigene assay qMIDSV3 as a triage test, sparing most of the oral potentially malignant disorder patients from unnecessary invasive tissue biopsies while accurately identifying oral squamous cell carcinoma cases.

A study in BMC Cancer suggests that Lip-TDM is a non-infectious, NK-activating, anti-tumor agent which can be administered intraperitoneally or systemically in bladder cancer as a potential alternative to BCG. 🧬
