The Impact of Locoregional Treatment on Survival in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer: A National Cancer Database Analysis

摘要

In patients with metastatic breast cancer, there is no consensus on the role of locoregional treatment of the primary tumor. In this National Cancer Database analysis on 16,128 patients with metastatic breast cancer, overall survival was greater in women who received locoregional treatment along with systemic therapy than those who only received systemic therapy, suggesting there may be a role for locoregional treatment in metastatic breast cancer.
