flag Over 20,000 Australians, mostly women, live with metastatic breast cancer, new data reveals.

flag Over 20,000 Australians, including 20,800 women and 150 men, are now known to be living with metastatic breast cancer, according to newly released data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare. flag The figures, made possible after 27 years of advocacy, reveal a previously uncounted population long considered "invisible" in national health statistics. flag The data, which includes state-by-state breakdowns, aims to improve care planning, resource allocation, and policy development for patients managing a long-term, progressive disease. flag Advocates say it validates patient experiences, supports greater research funding, and strengthens efforts to ensure access to up-to-date treatments and support systems.
