It was great to meet you @VictoriaAtkins at the @BreastCancerNow Wear It Pink day in Parliament.
Thank you so much for taking the time to listen and for writing this call to action to @wesstreeting over the #EnhertuEmergency.
Your support is greatly appreciated #Enhertu
As @BreastCancerNow say ensuring new, clinically effective drugs reach patients quickly is critical in improving cancer outcomes. As women with secondary breast cancer I met stressed, this means more precious time with their loved ones.
We must ensure people living with secondary breast cancer have access to the treatment and support they need to live well for as long as possible.

It's #WearItPink day to raise awareness of breast cancer. I was delighted to join @BreastCancerNow and speak to Sophie Blake and Claire Myerson about their experiences living with breast cancer, the signs to look out for when checking your breasts and the importance of attending breast cancer screenings.

Today, alongside @METUPUKorg and the UK Breast Cancer Group, we've written to members of the @NICEComms board, calling for urgent interim changes to the drug approval process, so a deal can be done to make #Enhertu available on the NHS.

@NHSEngland, @NICEcomms, @DaiichiSankyoUK, @ASTRAZENECAUK, and @wesstreeting, we won't walk away.
We'll do everything we can to get this decision reversed.action.breastcancernow.org/e…

This is shocking & shows exactly what we’re up against with @NICEComms
By introducing the #SeverityModifier in 2022 & changing our terminal cancer status from “severe” to “medium severe”, they no longer have to approve new drugs which extend our lives
#EnhertuEmergency
Only 10 minutes into this select committee video & it’s clear there’s a problem as only 2/39 drugs have been approved under the new @NICEComms #severitymodifier in 2 years & they have stated that the system is “not fit for purpose”@wesstreeting this is the problem.
Please address this urgently. WOMEN are dying & will continue to die unless there is change.
31 WOMEN are dying every day from #metaststicbreastcancer #secondarybreastcancer
We deserve better. We deserve HOPE & drugs that work to be APPROVED. This will happen with other cancers & other diseases - we are being thrown under the bus… our disease isn’t MEDIUM severity… life expectancy is 2-5 Years… #enhertuemergency
