02 Late-Breaking Abstract Submission Policy

The GBCC 2026 Late-Breaking Abstract policy is designed to accommodate high-impact, practice-changing research findings that were not available at the time of the regular abstract submission deadline.

Eligibility Criteria

Late-Breaking abstract submissions will be considered for:

1. Phase III and Phase II Clinical Trials

  • Practice-changing data for which no preliminary results were available at the regular abstract submission deadline
  • Studies with potential to immediately impact clinical practice in breast cancer care

2. High-Impact Original Research

  • Novel research findings with significant implications for clinical practice
  • Studies that substantially advance understanding of breast cancer biology or disease processes
  • Research with immediate relevance to patient care and treatment decision-making

Submission Requirements

  • No Preliminary Data: Submitted research must not have preliminary data available at the time of the regular abstract deadline
  • Time-Sensitivity: Data must be sufficiently time-sensitive to warrant late-breaking consideration
  • Practice-Changing Potential: Clear demonstration of how findings may alter current clinical practice or significantly impact the field

Selection Process

  • All Late-Breaking Abstract submissions will undergo rigorous scientific review
  • Selection is at the discretion of the GBCC 2026 Scientific Committee
  • Priority will be given to studies with the highest potential impact on breast cancer care

Important Notes

Late-breaking slots are limited and reserved exclusively for exceptional research that meets the above criteria and is eligible for the General Session. Studies with data available at the regular deadline should be submitted through the standard abstract submission process.
