Radiation after breast conservative surgery or after mastectomy reduces local recurrence and improves overall survival in breast cancerBreast cancer represents a biologically diverse set of diseases. Previous data suggest that the estrogen/progesterone receptor (ER/PR) status and HER2/neu status are ...
Radiation therapy (RT) after breast conserving surgery decreases the risks of local recurrence and breast cancer mortality in the multidisciplinary management of patients with breast cancer. However, breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and the absolute benefit of post-operative RT in individual pa...

CHICAGO, June 4 (Xinhua) -- The presence of cancer cells in the blood of patients with early-stage breast cancer may be predictive of a benefit from radiotherapy delivered after surgery, according to a study posted on the website of Northwestern University (NU). The researchers analyzed data ...

Major prospective phase 3 trials investigating the benefit of adjuvant radiation therapy after breast-conserving surgery for DCIS are summarized in Table 5 (Fisher et al., 1998, 1999; Houghton et al., 2003; Breast Cancer Cooperative Group et al., 2006; Emdin et al., 2006; McCormick et al....
Importantly, developments in the treatment of breast cancer include the increasing use of primary systemic therapy. It should be further investigated whether these results hold true when systemic therapy is not given after, but before surgery of the primary tumour. It would also be of interest to...
