Hey all, I am starting this thread to give us a place to meet up and check in. We all know this "ain't Facebook" and since some of us have left the boards recently let's have a roll call and start fresh here. Some of the "IBC ladies" and other threads have gone a bit untended so let's see who we are:

I'll go first: dx June 2015 TN IBC, not NED but hoping to get there.

IBC is such a different diagnosis than so many of the other types of BC I think it is really important for us to talk and share and learn from each other.

I am taking a "board break" mid June 2016, I will be back but mentally exhausted right now. Peace be with all of you. Diagnosed at 46 triple negative IBC. Mets to skin, lungs, bones.

It was two years ago that I noticed the pink "bruise" on my right breast and my life turned upside down. I could never have made it through the nightmare without all of you, walking the scary path with me. I will forever be grateful for you all.

Merry Christmas/Happy holidays to all of you, and may you be blessed with good health!

From the Facebook page of Dr. Naoto Ueno, former Director of the MDA IBC Clinic, announcing a promising clinical trial for a new treatment of triple negative IBC...

"Dr. Xiaoping Wang Lan Phi Toshiaki Iwase Takeshi Semba Trịnh Vạn Ngữ and our colleagues have dissected the mechanism of how EGFR regulates the immunosuppression status (more resistance to immunotherapy) of triple-negative IBC. We are now conducting a clinical trial of combining immunotherapy plus anti-EGFR antibody with chemotherapy. We hope that this will be a game-changer treatment for patients with IBC. Published in Science Advances.The trial link is https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05177796...

Brief Summary:

This phase II trial tests whether panitumumab and pembrolizumab in combination with standard of care chemotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant) works to shrink tumors in patients with stage III-IV triple negative breast cancer. Panitumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving panitumumab and pembrolizumab in combination with neoadjuvant chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells in patients with triple negative breast cancer."

TT, hope you and everyone else here had a good holiday and happy boxing day to those who celebrate as well.

I had an early dinner with DB and SIL and spent Christmas at home, watch a few movies, one good one was Glass Onion, A Knives Out mystery with Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc. Think modern day Agatha Christie or Hercule Perot, good mysteries and I highly recomend the first Knives Out movie and the Glass Onion. Quite enjoyable.
