Check out our paper on adoption of universal NGS in endometrial cancer. Kudos to first author and gyn onc fellow Dr. Isabel Rodriguez, and our incredible uw lab medicine and pathology colleagues @UWashOBGYN @Molecular_MD @SwisherLiz
👋 @BarbNorquist et al. demonstrate that Lynch syndrome screening by NGS in #EndometrialCancer allows concurrent molecular classification of endometrial cancer using one test with prognostic & therapeutic implications. ➡️ brnw.ch/21wF7zy #gyncsm

If you’re in DC today, go check out “The Spot” at Adams Morgan Day street festival to raise awareness of #endometrialcancer (EC). Stop by the #SpotHerforEC truck to pick up a fanny pack and snap a photo to help raise donations to help end the silence around EC. #GCAM

.@NCCN released survey results last week of 27 NCCN-member institutions IMPORTANT FINDINGS ➡️ 93% of centers are currently experiencing a shortage of #carboplatin & 70% have a similar lack of #cisplatin ➡️100% of respondents are still able to treat pts who need #cisplatin without any delays/claim denials ➡️64% of respondents are able to keep current pts w/ #carboplatin on the regimen ➡️20% of respondents report being able to continue #carboplatin for some but not all pts ➡️Overall, 16% of respondents report treatment delays as a result of needing to re-obtain prior authorization for modified treatment plans, but none have met with outright denials This issue is widespread across many disease types apart from #gyncancer, including #lungcancer, #breastcancer, #prostatecancer, and as well as many #leukemia and #lymphoma types. The survey is telling and does not take into consideration many non-NCCN centers that may be having a more difficult time managing these shortages. Surprisingly, over 55% of NCCN centers are not sure if local legislative offices are aware of these shortages. Let's help change that! @SGO_org has an easy tool to help you write your local offices: sgo.org/take-action/. Help us continue to advocate for our patients by bringing this to the attention of policymakers.
