This video provides a great explanation of the different types of breast cancer, the associated treatment options and the challenges in each case - such as resistance mechanisms, arrgh! Another topic covered is on PARP Inhibitors, which are drugs designed to provide new treatment options for cancer patients The trials underway may prove to be especially significant to those with Triple Negative breast cancers, providing an expansion of the treatment program which formerly consisted of only surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Listen and learn, this is great information.

Have a safe and happy fourth of July.

Cheers to survivorship,

Tara
