Revolutionising Radiotherapy: The ORNATE Study and the Future of Breast Cancer Treatment with Dr Gabrielle Metz.

Dr Metz is a radiation oncologist and 2025 clinical fellow with Breast Cancer Trials. Her project, optimising radiotherapy in the neoadjuvant therapy era, also known as ORNATE, aims to refine radiotherapy for breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy before surgery.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr Gabrielle Metz from the Royal North Shore Hospital to discuss:

  • What the database is, and its role in breast cancer treatment.
  • How researchers will explore whether radiation doses can be safely reduced in certain patients.
  • Options for less invasive lymph node treatments.
  •  The future of patient outcomes in this space.

Tune in for a deep dive into this important research.
