According to two international studies presented at the ESMO Congress 2024, women who breastfeed after receiving treatment for breast cancer, including those with a germline BRCA mutation (an inherited change in BRCA genes that significantly increases the risk of developing certain cancers, especially breast cancer), do not face an increased risk of recurrence or developing new breast cancers

The ESMO Congress 2024 will take place from September 13-17 in Barcelona, bringing together participants from all over the world

Treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers is catching up with other areas of oncology and offering patients better prospects for survival and quality of life, but a significant uptick in early-onset cases is raising new questions about effective prevention, diagnosis and treatment
