What Makes Lobular Breast Cancer Different? Unlocking the Biology of Invasive Lobular Carcinoma

Invasive lobular carcinoma is the second most common type of breast cancer, yet there is still much to learn about what makes this disease biologically distinct. In this episode, we sit down with Associate Professor Amy McCart Reed to explore the molecular underpinnings of invasive lobular carcinoma. Associate Professor McCart Reed discusses what researchers are learning about the biology of invasive lobular carcinoma, recent discoveries shaping our understanding of the disease, and how this research could ultimately lead to more personalised treatments and better outcomes for people living with a lobular diagnosis. (2:01) What have been some of the biggest discoveries in recent years that are changing the way researchers think about this subtype of breast cancer? (02:57) Are we aiming to move more towards personalised treatment for breast cancer? (03:27) What research still needs to happen in this space? (05:17) What is the key message that you'd like researchers and clinicians to take away from this episode? Tune in for a deep dive into this important research.
