5th Annual San Diego Metastatic Breast Cancer Conference
At Susan G. Komen, we know that living with metastatic (stage 4) breast cancer requires a different conversation, different treatments, and different research. To date, we have invested more than $220 million in over 530 research grants and more than 50 clinical trials focused on MBC — and we will not stop until we’ve achieved our vision of a world without breast cancer.
As part of our commitment to amplify metastatic breast cancer voices in Southern California and beyond, Komen will host our 5th Annual San Diego Metastatic Breast Cancer Conference in Spring 2024 as an extension of our year-round MBC Impact Series.
