Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC), a more advanced and invasive form of breast cancer, affects approximately 170,000 women in the US alone and remains a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Though recent improvements in screening are already helping achieve better health outcomes, there is still a critical need for new therapies to help further reduce the impact of the disease, which currently remains incurable. Driven by this goal, our scientists are working every day, applying their expertise and cutting-edge technology to design and develop innovative therapeutic candidates. Learn more about a discovery that will hopefully bring them one step closer to a potential advancement in first-line care for certain forms of MBC: https://lnkd.in/d-D-hje7 #Oncology #BreastCancer #CancerResearch #BehindTheScience

Here at Pfizer, we pursue scientific breakthroughs that change patients’ lives, but none of our innovations would reach the patients in need without our manufacturing powerhouse — Pfizer Global Supply or PGS.
