About the Event

Biomarker testing is important in choosing the right treatment at the right time as well as opening up clinical trial eligibility. Biomarkers for MBC include receptors (ER, PR and HER2) as well as acquired mutations such as ESR1 mutations. In this session we will discuss these and other biomarkers, different types of biomarker testing, what type of samples are needed, and discuss at what points you should talk to your oncologist about biomarker testing. We will also provide questions to ask your oncologist and a sheet to record any biomarker testing you've had (as well as other information). We will take questions through out and at the end of the session.
