African American Women and Breast Cancer
“I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see my children grow up and my grandchild grow, you get this really scary feeling inside,” says Rosamond Stallings. When 45 year old Rosamond Stallings was diagnosed with breast cancer 2 years ago, doctors urged her to immediately have a mastectomy. “They found like six malignant tumors,” says Rosamond.
Recent studies have shown that 30 percent or more of breast cancer patients fail to receive complete treatment, and that African American women are as much as 10 percent less likely than white women to receive optimal therapy. But now, supported by a $10 million grant from the Department of Defense, a study, led by a team of doctors at Columbia University Medical Center, will look at possible reasons for the disparity.

BREAST CANCER AND OVARIAN CANCER RISK
There’s an important piece of medical research released tonight which every woman with breast cancer or a family history of breast cancer needs to hear about.
The study looks at whether they need to worry about their risk of ovarian cancer, and what they should do about it.
Up to half of families with multiple cases of breast cancer do not end up having mutations in the major breast cancer genes, the BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 genes. Still, it’s clear there’s a genetic link somewhere…to another gene or genes which have not yet been identified.
What risk do these genes play in terms of ovarian cancer, if any? And do women need to do something about it? (Read more about BREAST CANCER AND OVARIAN CANCER RISK)
