Today is Triple Negative Breast Cancer Awareness Day, a day dedicated to honouring everyone affected by TNBC, and recognising the unique challenges that come with this diagnosis.

But today is also about something bigger: awareness, understanding, and strength.

Neo-N trial in TNBC
Anyone else in the Neo-N trial for triple negative? I’m one of two participants in my hospital in Brisbane and started my first immunotherapy yesterday. Please get in touch if you are part of the trial or are thinking about it. Would be great to chat to other people as treatment progresses.
