Hormone-positive breast cancer often stops responding to treatment quietly — the cancer changes before a scan ever shows it. In this episode, we break down a new drug and a simple blood test that together are changing how oncologists catch that shift and respond to it.
In this episode, you'll learn:
Why aromatase inhibitors eventually stop working for some patients
What a liquid biopsy can detect that a scan can't
How camizestrant (Etcamah) works differently from older hormone therapies
What the latest clinical trial data actually showed
The question worth asking your oncologist at your next visit
This one's worth watching if hormone-driven breast cancer is part of your story, or someone you love's.
