Wed, 15 May 2024 - 145 - S08 E05 Tissue Donation: You Can Help Advance MBC Research
Even though breast cancer research is comparatively well-funded, researchers still don't fully understand the many different ways metastatic cancer eventually evades currently available treatments. Just like a detective can learn much from studying the scene of a crime, researchers need to understand how breast cancer causes death to better understand how to stop it from doing so. One of the quickest ways for them to do that is through something called a tissue donation program.Ma...

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 - 140 - TJT #4: Finding the Joy in Celebrations

Wed, 15 Nov 2023 - 135 - TJT #3: Gratitude and it's Importance on Living a Joyful Life
With the holiday season fast approaching, it is a great time to talk about gratitude and how important it is to have a joyful life. Making gratitude a part of your life, just like breathing, is such a huge help if you are searching for joy. But you can't just conjure up a life lived in gratitude. Unlike being thankful, which exists in the mind, gratitude is an appreciation that comes from the heart. It has to be cultivated and practiced.

This episode of our podcast is about and with a very special group of MBC patients. This group is increasing in numbers and yet it is underrepresented in clinical research, and its unique needs are not well understood.

Sat, 17 Jun 2023 - 117 - S06 E10 The Rising Rates of BC & MBC in Young Women, Including Pregnancy & Post-Partum Diagnoses
If you don't hear much about the rising rates of all stages of breast cancer, including MBC, in young women, you're not alone. De novo MBC rates (when Stage 4 MBC is found at the first diagnosis) are rising "exponentially", and fastest among women between the ages of 25 and 39, but not in older women. These trends are alarming to researchers. Perhaps most shocking of all: half of young women diagnosed with breast cancer under 45 have a postpartum diagnosis, defined as being within 10 years fr...

Mon, 22 May 2023 - 114 - S06 E08 Living Alone with MBC

Wed, 26 Apr 2023 - 111 - S06 E05 Newly Diagnosed with MBC: Keeping Your Balance on the Emotional Rollercoaster
Hearing the words “you have metastatic breast cancer” is devastating. Whether your diagnosis comes de novo or months, years, or even decades after treatment for early-stage breast cancer, there is no way to prepare for the terror, anger, despair, and sense of freefall that follows. It’s no wonder that the phrase “emotional rollercoaster” comes up so often when MBC patients describe the experience.OMBCL co-hosts Nancy Roylance and Ashley Fernandez sat down with oncology social worker Lisa Nels...

Mon, 17 Apr 2023 - 109 - S06 E04 MBC Advocacy: Finding Purpose in Adversity
A diagnosis of Stage IV Metastatic Breast Cancer is typically the (or one of the) most significant traumas a person and their loved ones will experience. Rather than an immediate death sentence, strides in cancer medication and research means that many will live for years after receiving this terminal diagnosis. Thus, patients and their families may begin to wonder, "what do I/we do with the time afforded to me?" and “How can I/we help others living with MBC now and in the future?” ...
Wed, 05 Apr 2023 - 108 - S06 E03 Review of 2022: Best in MBC with Dr. Hamilton
In this episode of our Road To A Cure series, we talk with oncologist and researcher Dr. Erika Hamilton about the practice-changing developments of the past 15 months. This is a timely discussion as research continues to catch up to need in our lives with metastatic breast cancer. 2022 brought the big news that an anti-body drug conjugate, Enhertu, was delivering results in people with what was then known as HER2-negative breast cancer. Suddenly the term HER2-Low was everywhere. Of cours...

Wed, 01 Mar 2023 - 105 - S05 E10 Laughter as Medicine
Breast cancer is no laughing matter, but that does not keep our guests in this episode from using and sharing humor to cope with their diagnosis. For our first guest, NYC actress and comedian Jenny Saldaña, a life-changing diagnosis spurred her to write the play “Pink,” a dramedy that includes some of the more humorous moments of life with breast cancer. Khevin Barnes, who lost his first wife to ovarian cancer and then was diagnosed with breast cancer himself, was inspired to write ...
Wed, 14 Dec 2022 - 104 - S05 E09 - Systemic Racism and MBC in Clinical Trials
When it comes to metastatic breast cancer, clinical trials are the way we find new drugs, better therapeutic targets, and, hopefully, more time. There are many issues with how clinical trials are designed, who they recruit and who is excluded, but one of the most difficult to confront at least here in the US has been the failure of the entire system to address how Black women and men with MBC are so much less likely than non-Black patients to be on a clinical trial. Systemic racism has m...
Wed, 30 Nov 2022 - 103 - S05 E08 - ASCO 2022: When The Dust Settles, What Are My Treatment Options For ER+/HER2- MBC?
Welcome to to the second part of our post–ASCO analysis of the state of affairs in hormone receptor-positive MBC. It was not so long ago that the only options for this most common subset of breast cancer were single agent endocrine therapy and systemic chemo. We have come a long way over the last couple of decades. Today we are asking Drs. Stephanie Graff, Sara Hurvitz, and Kevin Kalinsky to talk about how they make decisions in the clinic on how to select and or...
Wed, 23 Nov 2022 - 102 - S05 E07 - FES/Cerianna Screening for Estrogen Positive MBC
Cerianna is an FDA approved molecular imaging agent that has the ability to tell the doctor the receptor status of all the tumors—essentially creating a “whole-body" picture of estrogen receptor (ER) positive lesions in recurrent or metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The ability of physicians to more precisely “visualize” the disease may be instructive in determining the most appropriate course of treatment. Cerianna is administered as a single intravenous injection, and then imaged using a Posi...

Wed, 09 Nov 2022 - 100 - S05 E05 - ASCO 2022: When the Dust Settles, Will ADCs Change MBC?
While the DESTINY-Breast04 trial, which earned a standing ovation as a practice-changing study for treatment of HER2-low MBC garnered most of the headlines from the ASCO (America Society of Clinical Oncologists) annual meeting in June, it was not the only reason for optimism. In this episode, the first of a two-part series, Our MBC Life’s Victoria Goldberg and Lynda Weatherby continue to explore what the research shared at ASCO means for us, the patients living with MBC. You’ll he...
Wed, 02 Nov 2022 - 99 - S05 E04 - We Remember
'We Remember' honors all who died from metastatic breast cancer over the past year—parents, children, spouses and partners. It gives voice to both the grief and the love that endures after each death. To live with a metastatic diagnosis or to be a caregiver, friend, or loved one of someone with MBC is to inhabit a community of loss. Both demand that you confront and live with the reality of mortality, all the while balancing fear with hope, and profound sorrow with joy.Produc...
Wed, 26 Oct 2022 - 98 - S05 E03 - Dr. Shanu Modi: How to Get a Standing Ovation at ASCO?
The short answer to our title question is that you present a clinical trial that’s a game-changer for treating metastatic breast cancer. That’s what happened in June when Shanu Modi, MD, medical oncologist and attending physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared the results of the DESTINY-Breast04 trial at the American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting. MSK’s Dr. Shanu Modi, principal investigator on the DESTINY-Breast04 trial, talks with the Our Metastatic Life...
Wed, 19 Oct 2022 - 97 - S05 E02 - MBC 101: The HER2-Low Show
The biggest news out of the June meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) was the success of a relatively new drug called Enhertu (trastuzumab deruxtecan) in treating estrogen positive (ER+) and triple negative (TNBC) breast cancers that were also HER2 low. Results of the clinical trial presented at the meeting were so positive that in August the FDA approved the drug for patients with metastatic HER2 low breast cancer that has progressed on other treatments.Most of us like...
Wed, 12 Oct 2022 - 96 - S05 E01 - The Legacy of Lisa Laudico
On August 6, Lisa Laudico, the creator and driving force behind the podcast series, died peacefully at the age of 56, surrounded by her family.

Our new series provides an introduction to the potential of psilocybin-assisted ther...

Wed, 25 May 2022 - 88 - S04 E12 - Dr. Nancy Lin: Are CNS Mets Becoming More Treatable? What’s New with STOP-HER2?
Brain metastases are unfortunately an all too common and devastating complication of breast cancer.

Fri, 20 May 2022 - 87 - S04 E11 - MBC & Parenting: The Parents Are Hanging In

Wed, 11 May 2022 - 86 - S04 E10 - ER Progression and Resistance: Causes, Consequences, and Hope
About 80% of breast cancers are ER+, meaning that the cancer cells have estrogen receptors, and estrogen is likely to make them grow. Here’s the good news/bad news story for ER+ MBC patients. First, the good news: there are a number of effective medications that either reduce available systemic estrogen or block its ability to stimulate cancer growth. The bad news: over time, ER+ cancers develop resistance to these medications, resulting in cancer progression and signaling the need for a new ...
Thu, 05 May 2022 - 85 - S04 E08 - Dr. Stephanie Graff: Understanding Progression
In the inverted language of MBC, “unremarkable” is something we all aspire to, and “progression” is something we dread. Progression means that our current medication regimen is no longer working and cancer is spreading and/or growing. It means that treatment is likely to change—bringing new drugs with new side effects. It also means that we’ve exhausted one of the available treatment options for our disease, leaving fewer remaining lines of treatment. In this episode, breast oncologist Dr. St...
Wed, 20 Apr 2022 - 84 - S04 E07 - Grief, Loss, & Faith
This episode has been a long time in the making. We knew that to cover our varied perspectives on grief, loss, and end-of-life, a discussion on faith traditions would be an important part. The world around us infers that talking about death is not the same as talking about the joy of birth or the happiest of life's milestones. Certainly this unspoken “sweeping under the rug” of what is actually happening to all people and all families can feel so isolating. We wanted to hear some ...
Wed, 13 Apr 2022 - 83 - S04 E06 - Dr. Lidia Schapira: Hey Doc, What Are You Telling Me?
Before our MBC diagnosis, many of us saw our doctors once or twice a year or even less often. And most visits were likely routine check-ups or focused on a particular issue with a relatively straightforward solution. But MBC changes all that. It throws each of us into an unfamiliar world--with its own language, new and complex information shared in high stakes appointments and a relationship with our oncologist that immediately becomes one of the most important relationships in our life. ...
