Listen to “HIV CONFERENCE, THE LARGEST, UNDERSCORES CONTINUED INNOVATION IN HIV CARE” on Spreaker.

The 24th International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2022) in July, the world’s largest gathering on HIV, will bring together scientists, industry leaders, advocates and community members to discuss the latest in HIV research.

Incredible advancements have been made in HIV care since the beginning of the epidemic, and today, people living with HIV who have access to medication can expect to live as long as the general population.1 With nearly half of people living with HIV in the U.S. over the age of 50, HIV research and treatment efforts have shifted to consider how to optimize care over the long-term and reduce the number of medications in a complete regimen.2

New data at AIDS 2022 will focus on innovative treatment options that address these considerations and meet the evolving needs of the HIV community. Data include two-drug regimens that reduce the number of antiretroviral medicines people are exposed to every day and treatments for long-term survivors who have developed resistance to other HIV therapies.

Dr. Harmony Garges, Chief Medical Officer at ViiV Healthcare, discuss key data from the conference, HIV care as patients grow older and where treatment may be headed next.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month NEW STUDY CONFIRMS EVEN MORE WOMEN WITH BREAST CANCER CAN SKIP CHEMOTHERAPY

Listen to “October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month NEW STUDY CONFIRMS EVEN MORE WOMEN WITH BREAST CANCER CAN SKIP CHEMOTHERAPY” on Spreaker.

New research expands the number of women with a common type of early stage breast cancer who can skip chemotherapy and safely be treated with hormone-blocking therapies alone – even if their cancer has spread to some of their lymph nodes.[1] However, women whose tumors have spread to their lymph nodes are often at higher risk of worse outcomes, with the majority receiving chemotherapy.[2] Results from the RxPONDER study, one of the largest clinical trials in hormone receptor-positive, HER2 negative early breast cancer, were presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium in late 2020.1
Based on these new findings, postmenopausal women whose cancer has spread to between one and three lymph nodes can avoid the side effects associated with chemotherapy if their Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score® result, a genomic test which predicts chemotherapy benefit and risk of cancer recurrence, is between 0 and 25.1
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, surpassing lung cancer for the first time in 2020.[3] With the growing recognition of the importance of personalized treatment for breast cancer, genomic testing can help tailor treatment decisions to a patient’s individual tumor. Facing a breast cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming but getting a genomic test to understand the unique biology of a patient’s tumor can help guide personalized treatment decisions.
Our guest, Dr. Deepa Halaharvi, a board-certified breast cancer surgeon at Ohio Health, can speak to the practice-changing impact of this recent study for postmenopausal women with node-positive breast cancer and the importance of genomic tests in enabling confident breast cancer treatment decisions.
As a breast cancer survivor herself, Dr. Halaharvi is in the unique position of seeing breast cancer from the perspective of a doctor as well as a patient. She will share her cancer story, including how the Oncotype DX® test informed her treatment, following her diagnosis with stage 1 HR positive, HER2 negative breast cancer at age 42, just 8 months after becoming a practicing breast surgeon. She’ll also talk about how her personal experience has greatly impacted the type of care she offers her patients, helping them to survive and thrive.
