Benign Breast Disease Linked to Increased Risk for Breast Cancer
Risks increased for breast cancer overall, invasive BC, ductal carcinoma in situ in BBD cohort versus Iowa SEER program
Small Proportion of Advanced Breast Cancers Due to Biennial Versus Annual Mammogram
BMI population attributable risk proportions highest for premenopausal and postmenopausal Blacks, postmenopausal Hispanic/Latinx
SABCS: Serum Hormones Can Help ID Benefit of Anastrozole
Women in quartiles 2, 3, and 4 of the estradiol-SHBG ratio demonstrated a relative benefit of anastrozole
SABCS: 22 Percent of Young BRCA Carriers Conceive After Breast Cancer
No significant difference seen in disease-free survival for those with, without pregnancy; overall survival up for those with pregnancy
SABCS: Outcomes No Worse for Survivors With Less Frequent Mammograms
Breast cancer-specific survival at five years noninferior with less frequent mammograms versus annual mammograms
SABCS: Positive Outcomes Seen When Pausing Endocrine Therapy to Become Pregnant
Incidence of breast cancer-free interval events similar for those undergoing ovarian stimulation for cryopreservation or not
SABCS: Neoadjuvant Chemo Can Let Breast Cancer Patients Skip Nodal RT
Skipping adjuvant regional nodal irradiation does not increase risk for recurrence or death after neoadjuvant chemo before breast-conserving surgery
SABCS: Younger Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients Can Avoid Adjuvant RT
Very low risk for recurrence seen for postmenopausal women aged 50 to 69 years who did not receive radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery
Prediction Model for Invasive Breast Cancer Improved With Additional Risk Factors
Body mass index was associated with largest improvement in estimated risk for individual women
ASTRO Issues Guidance Related to Partial Breast Irradiation
Daily or every-other-day external beam PBI regimen preferred over twice-daily regimen due to late toxicity concerns
