SGBCC 2025 | Dr. Cynthia Villarreal-Garza: Monitoring and Management of Long-term Toxicities in Young Breast Cancer Patients

The impact of long-term toxicity management on patient quality of life is increasingly being recognized in breast cancer treatment. At the recently held 19th St. Gallen Breast Cancer Conference (SGBCC 2025), Dr. Cynthia Villarreal-Garza, Director of Clinic Oncology at the Breast Cancer Center, TecSalud,delivered a presentation titled “Ensuring Long-term Healthy Survival of Breast Cancer Patients.” She pointed out that young breast cancer patients, due to the high intensity and long duration of their treatment, face a number of unique toxicity issues that not only affect their physical health but also have a profound impact on their psychological well-being, social functioning, and overall quality of life. To monitor and intervene in these long-term toxicities, Professor Villarreal-Garza proposed the application of “evidence-based approaches for healthy living” and the use of remote monitoring applications to effectively manage toxicities and improve patient quality of life.

ASCO GU 2025 | Dr. Philip Kwong: Precision Testing and Individualized Management in mCRPC

The 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO GU) was held in San Francisco, California, from February 13 to 15. It attracted top experts and scholars in the field of urology from around the world. At this conference, Oncology Frontier invited Dr. Philip Kwong from The University of Hong Kong to share his insights on precision testing and individualized management in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). He believes that precision testing and continuous monitoring are crucial for optimizing treatment strategies for mCRPC, and he particularly emphasized the key role of genetic testing in assessing homologous recombination repair (HRR) status. His insights not only provide important guidance for clinical practice but also bring new perspectives to the individualized treatment of mCRPC.
