Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Research and Education Act of 2025
This bill directs the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to expand research on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a highly aggressive form disproportionately affecting African-American and Hispanic women. It requires the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to create public education materials about TNBC incidence, treatment options, and racial disparities, and directs health agencies to provide updated TNBC information to healthcare providers. The legislation specifically targets gaps in understanding TNBC prevalence, treatment costs, and prevention methods among minority women. It authorizes funding for these research and education efforts from fiscal years 2026 through 2031.
