Fellows Forum Co-Hosted by BCRF

Preceding the opening session of the Annual Meeting, BCRF, in collaboration with Plato Foundation and the European School of Oncology, hosted a satellite meeting for breast cancer fellows, which was co-chaired by BCRF Scientific Director Larry Norton, MD (Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center) and Fatima Cardoso, MD (Champalimaud Cancer Center). A dynamic panel of BCRF grantees presented five cases from clinical practice that challenged the fellows' knowledge of current therapies and their clinical utility. They examined treatment strategies in the rare but aggressive inflammatory breast cancer, assessed therapeutic opportunities in HER2+ patients with brain metastases, and metastatic ER+ and triple negative breast cancers. Over 57 fellows from the US and abroad attended this educational forum and contributed to a lively question-and-answer session.
