I would also be interested in any fresh ideas the researchers might have on reallocating more of the research dollars to understanding and stopping metastastis. It is the only reason women die of this disease--40k each year. It seems logical to me if 30% of breast cancers metastasize at some point, 30% of the research dollars should go to stop this but currently it is only 5%. There are 155k of us in the USA in any given year living with stage iv disease and we are geographically dispersed And most of us are not well connected enough or well enough to bring on this fight.
