Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S7 Ep10: Ashley Dalton MP: What the National Cancer Plan means for you
Q: What challenges exist around drug approvals and access, like Inher2, and how can data counting help?
Approval depends on cost-effectiveness assessments; better data on metastatic cancer prevalence would strengthen negotiations with pharma and help ensure wider access to effective drugs.
S7 Ep10: Ashley Dalton MP: What the National Cancer Plan means for you
Q: What does the plan mean for people living with metastatic breast cancer?
It explicitly commits to counting and supporting metastatic cancers, recognizing that patients can live with cancer for years and need access to appropriate treatments and care.
S7 Ep10: Ashley Dalton MP: What the National Cancer Plan means for you
Q: How did you work with Breast Cancer Now and other patient organizations to develop the plan?
From the start, she built a co-created process with cancer organizations and patient groups, ensuring patients were involved in all stages, not just consulted after the plan was drafted.
S7 Ep10: Ashley Dalton MP: What the National Cancer Plan means for you
Q: Could you summarize the whole Cancer Plan in 30 seconds?
The plan aims to have 75% of people diagnosed with cancer living five years after diagnosis, either cancer-free or living well, by treating patients as central to care and addressing prevention, diagnosis, treatment, science, and ongoing support.
S7 Ep8: Navigating cultural taboos with breast cancer (Pretti)
Q: What brings you joy right now?
Being 50 and celebrating that milestone with my family and friends, feeling grateful to be healthy and hopeful for the future.
