June 12, 2019 / Dr. Aaron G. Margulies / Breast Cancer Treatment, Breast Cancer Research

A Special Note Of Gratitude From A Relieved Patient

February 11, 2019 / Dr. Aaron G. Margulies / Breast Cancer Treatment, Patient Stories

Hello, Margulies office people!

This is just a quick note to thank you all for all the concern, assistance, and care you have given me over the past month. One month ago today I had the biopsy that came back with a Grade 1 cancer result, and today I’m at work with only a couple of scars and a cute little purple binder covering my cancer-free chest. 🙂 I know there is more treatment ahead of me, but I am very grateful to be so quickly and easily to this point. I can only pray that the rest of the process will be as efficient, straightforward, and reassuring as my experience with your office has been.

Does Fertility Treatment Affect Your Risk of Breast Cancer?

January 2, 2019 / Dr. Aaron G. Margulies / Breast Cancer Treatment

Some women who undergo In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) worry that the process may increase their risk of developing breast cancer. It’s estimated that over 8 million babies have been born worldwide as a result of IVF and other advanced fertility treatments since the first IVF birth in 1978. In the U.S., 1.5% of all births are the result of using artificial reproductive therapies, which is the highest percentage to date.

I’m excited to share news about a significant advancement in treatment for patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer. A phase III trial shows that a treatment called Kadcyla® (TDM-1) lowered the risk of recurrence of invasive breast cancer or death by 50% compared to Herceptin® in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer with residual disease after pre-surgical (neoadjuvant = NST) therapy.

Concerns About Genetic Testing Kits For Detecting Breast Cancer Genes

You’ve most likely seen the ads on TV for home-kits like 23andMe that can tell you about your ancestry through saliva testing. 23andMe is now offering the ability to give you FDA approved health reports as well, and people are curious if these reports can determine if they carry the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, which increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancer.
