Front Row Seat: Can We Talk about the Cure? A Conversation with Dr. Eric Winer
For decades, stage IV meant managing the disease — not beating it. That story is beginning to change.
In this episode of Live from Stage IV, Victoria Goldberg sits down with Dr. Eric Winer — oncologist, director of the Yale Cancer Center, and former president of ASCO — to ask a question that once felt impossible: Can we cure metastatic breast cancer?
Dr. Winer walks through the landmark trials reshaping HER2-positive treatment, introduces the concept of "curative hope," and gets into what's hardest about ER-positive and triple-negative disease, cancer dormancy, the science of exercise, and bold new trial designs like SAFFO and HORIZON that are rewriting the playbook.
