Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre can confirm that patient Kate Keltie was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in October 2022.

“Kate has had a fantastic response to her treatment and currently has no metabolically active disease.
“However, she will require ongoing treatment and monitoring to check for any return of her cancer,” he said.
Peter Mac supports Kate in her desire for privacy and will not be making further comment about her care at this time.
