We are thrilled to share #Starfysh ⭐️ an auxiliary deep generative model for multi-modal analysis and integration of spatial transcriptomic (ST) datasets and histology images, and its application to heterogeneous #breastcancer tumors! 😃 tinyurl.com/hffdhvx7 1/ Image
Incredibly fortunate to have a passionate, collaborative & talented team that didn't slow down with all the challenges of the past few years 🙏: @SiyuHe7 @YinuoJin6, @AchilleNazaret @shi_lingting and a fruitful and ongoing collaboration with @GeorgePlitas and Sasha Rudensky. 2/
Using ST, we wanted to find out if our previously observed continuous phenotypic expansion of intratumoral immune states (doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…) could be explained by the #spatialdynamics of immune cells and exposure to different environmental signals and nutrient supply? 🧐 3/

I got into a screaming match with a jerk oncologist who sold out by working for insurance companies to deny claims today. My whole office stopped and stared. But then they clapped after they realized why I was yelling. @premera is denying my patient’s Keytruda for her #TNBC
I asked the oncologist on the line why he was doing what he was doing and he had no answer. I then asked him if this was really the hill he wanted to die on, denying potentially life saving therapy for a young women with bad breast cancer. Again no answer. #MedTwitter #bcsm
He started with some nonsense about how the data wasn’t yet clear if patients really need adjuvant Keytruda and that if I had wanted adjuvant Keytuda she shouldn’t have been treated on the I-SPY2 trial in the neoadjuvant setting😡🤬. This man is not a breast oncologist.

❓What additional testing?

📌For metastatic #TNBC

📍Germline BRCA1/2 (gBRCApv) and PD-L1 are 🔑 in early decision making📍

🤔What if she were 3L or beyond?

❓What factors–clinical, genomic–impact decisions?

Sponsored by @Roche,
I would like to share a Tweetorial about recent important advances in the management of advanced/metastatic triple negative breast cancer (mTNBC)

#Tweetorial #Oncology #Cancer #Diagnosis #TNBC #Immunotherapy #PDL1
TNBC is a challenging disease to treat due to its aggressive behavior, heterogeneity, and the lack of universal actionable targets. mTNBC is commonly diagnosed at a younger age than other BC subtypes and its prognosis is poor, with a median survival of <2 years.
Advanced TNBC can result from recurrence after treatment in the early-stage disease setting, or it may be diagnosed at initial (de novo) presentation

Thurs Case🎀

Take🏠messages

✅BRCAm= 10-20% of TNBC!
✅PD-L1 CPS>10= PFS & OS benefit w/ IO in mTNBC
✅PARPi= PFS benefit
✅Biomarkers, side effects, pt pref key

📚We captured much of @dradityabardia @ariellemedford’s discussion: twitter.com/i/events/15548…

Thursday Case🎀

How do you choose IO vs PARPi in #TNBC w #BRCA mutation? Check out the summary and algorithm below!
Important to know there are more 2L options as well, including sacituzumab-gov & other ADCs. New trials evaluating IO+ PARPi–stay tuned!

🗓 Two years after completing capecitabine, she’s found to have liver metastases.

🔬 Bx: TNBC, PD-L1+

🤨 What would you do next?
🤨 Would your decision change if she had received neo/adjuvant pembrolizumab?

@DrAttai T2. Let’s talk now about radiation specifically for breast cancer. We’ll start w/ breast conserving therapy (BCT) – a term for breast conserving surgery w/radiation as a combined strategy with similar results to a mastectomy. #bcsm #radonc 1/
@DrAttai T2. Vera Peters, whose mother had breast cancer, was a radiation oncologist advocating for smaller surgery w/RT in the 1960s-1970s. Amazing researcher and helped push us toward BCT as an option thefoldingchairhistory.com/2018/03/23/dr-… #bcsm #radonc 2/
@DrAttai T2. The thought initially was that with a smaller breast surgery, we should irradiate the entire breast with whole breast irradiation since we weren’t doing a mastectomy. In a 2D era without molecular medicine it worked great. #radonc #bcsm 3/
