SABCS 2023 | Intra-tumoral hypoxia in pregnancy-associated breast cancer: what does it mean?

Carsten F.J Bakhuis, UMC Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands, tells us more about the potential implications of intra-tumoral hypoxia in Pregnancy-Associated Breast Cancer (PABC). Patients with tumors overexpressing hypoxia-markers have a significantly worse survival, which may be an important underlying carcinogenic mechanism in PABC, thereby holding the potential as a promising novel therapeutic target in this patient group. This interview took place at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) congress in San Antonio, TX.
