Download or read book Adjuvant Therapy written by Kathy Miller and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy was first demonstrated in the early 1970's. Prolonged follow-up of these trials confirms the lasting improvement in overall survival with the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. The early meta-analysis offers the practicing physician a good sense of the broad trends in adjuvant therapy (both chemotherapy and hormonal therapy), but falls short during periods of rapid changes in available agents or approaches. This volume deals with different views on the early overview. One view highlights therapeutic advances that have not yet been incorporated. Another view places the overview in context, contrasting the consensus recommendations with actual delivery of therapy in the community. While the overview provides meaningful guidelines for the patient with an 'average risk' early breast cancer, oncologists routinely struggle with patients at either end of the risk spectrum. In this volume, the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy is looked at. This was initially reserved for patients with locally advanced or inflammatory disease. Adjuvant treatment decisions are based largely on the results of randomized clinical trials. necessarily unrepresentative of the general population of breast cancer patients. Another point is that in real life, clinical therapy frequently requires a series of negotiations between patient and physician, especially with the explosion of the Internet, which makes it easier for patients to find (mis)information.
Book Synopsis Breast Cancer 4 by : William L. McGuire
Download or read book Breast Cancer 4 written by William L. McGuire and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fourth book in a series dealing with breast cancer. Volumes 1-3 were concerned with treatment, experimental biology, and a number of varied timely topics. The present volume continues to review the breast cancer field in the broadest sense. The first chapter addresses the question of selecting appropriate chemotherapy for the patient. In the 1970s, great advances were seen in our ability to achieve objective tumor regression with empirical combina tions of chemotherapeutic agents. The next decade will focus on precise methods to select those agents likely to have the greatest benefit in individual patients. Livingston has provided us with a thorough review of the current state of the art. We have known for some time that steroid hormone receptor assays of considerable value to clinicians caring for patients with advanced disease. Osborne and colleagues now present considerable arguments that receptor assays are also useful in the setting of primary breast cancer for purposes of both prognosis and treatment strategy. A very important clinical problem which has received little attention in the research laboratory is benign breast disease. If one inquires about the medical therapy of this disorder in the United States, it is obvious that the majority of physicians would appreciate a better understanding of the pathophysiology which might lead to improved therapies. Mauvais-Jarvis and co-workers provide us with such an account from their wide experience.
Book Synopsis Optimizing Breast Cancer Management by : William J. Gradishar
Download or read book Optimizing Breast Cancer Management written by William J. Gradishar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents expert opinions on a variety of key topics related to the management of breast cancer, with a focus on the implications of recent advances and research findings for clinical practice. It also explores the controversy regarding mammography screening and reviews the contribution of new imaging modalities. Considerable attention is paid to developments in surgical procedures, including the potential for the safe and effective use of sentinel lymph node dissection alone—even in patients with positive nodes—and to the advantages and contraindications of new radiotherapy techniques. Genetic aspects are discussed in detail, including an assessment of the role of genetic testing and the potential impact of genetic signatures on breast cancer management. New systemic strategies, such as anti-HER2 therapy, endocrine agents, and agents to reverse endocrine resistance, are considered, and the optimal use of chemotherapy for early-stage and advanced-stage disease is addressed. In closing, the book shares important new insights into lifestyle risk factors, risk reduction strategies, and survivor issues, including sexual dysfunction and fertility maintenance.
Download or read book Breast Cancer written by Michael Baum and published by Health Press (UK). This book was released on 2002 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an enormous amount of activity in the field of breast cancer research and treatment although progress is not really being made. One of the problems in making progress is that the disease has a very long and unpredictable natural history. Though the underlying biology of breast cancer remains the same, treatments are both culturally dependent and constantly changing. For example, based on the same experimental data more chemotherapy may be offered in the USA than in the UK or Canada. Surgery is also less radical now because the radical regional surgical approach was not a success. In recognizing this we have learned about breast cancer as a systemic disease. The purpose of Fast Facts: Breast Cancer is to sort out the facts from the fallacies and to provide the busy clinician or clinical nurse specialist with rapid access to information that should make their difficult and sensitive task that much easier.
Book Synopsis Quest for the Cure by : George R. Blumenschein
Download or read book Quest for the Cure written by George R. Blumenschein and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original fourteen chapter book is a brief, slightly autobiographic tale of medical oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, and breast cancer patients in a well-established cancer center in Texas, who pursued the goal of cure for breast cancer. The evolution of improved outcomes in the treatment of microscopic metastatic breast cancer is also the story of the development of adjuvant chemotherapy for post-operative breast disease. The adjuvant therapy of breast cancer came about with the realization that this malignancy, when diagnosed in most patients, had spread beyond the confines of the primary cancer. Patient histories in the form of Case Studies are used to illustrate certain issues. Devoted to the development of the chemotherapeutic regimens that currently are used to treat patients with advanced breast cancer.
Book Synopsis Adjuvant Therapy of Breast Cancer by : I. Craig Henderson
Download or read book Adjuvant Therapy of Breast Cancer written by I. Craig Henderson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of randomized trials evaluating the use of early or adjuvant systemic treatment for patients with resectable breast cancer provide an eloquent rebuttal to those who would argue that we have made no progress in the treatment of cancer. Many of the tumors that we have been most successful in curing with chemotherapy and other newer forms of treatment are relatively uncommon. In contrast, breast cancer continues to be the single most common malignancy among women in the western world, is increasingly a cause of death throughout Asia and Third-World countries, and remains one of the most substantial causes of cancer mortality world wide. The use of mammography as a means of early detection has been shown to reduce breast cancer mortality by 25-35% among those popu lations in which it is utilized. The use of adjuvant systemic treatment in appropriate patients provides a similar (and additional) reduction in breast cancer mortality. Few subjects have been so systematically studied in the history of medicine, and it seems fair to conclude that the value to adjuvant systemic therapy in prolonging the lives of women with breast cancer is more firmly supported by empirical evidence than even the more conventional or primary treatments using various combinations ofsurgery and radiotherapy.
Book Synopsis Management of Breast Diseases by : Ismail Jatoi
Download or read book Management of Breast Diseases written by Ismail Jatoi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is intended as a practical guide for physicians and surgeons who treat diseases of the breast, both benign and malignant. Thus, general surgeons, internists, family practitioners, gynecologists, surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and medical oncologists will find this book useful. The management of breast diseases requires a multidisciplinary approach, and this textbook therefore includes the views of a wide range of specialists from throughout the world. Today the treatment of breast diseases is largely predicated on the results of randomized prospective trials. The results of many clinical trials are discussed in detail, and readers will find this book to be a useful guide to the evidence-based treatment of breast diseases. The revised edition provides a comprehensive update of the previous version of the book. Specifically, it contains 2 new chapters: “Molecular Classification of Breast Cancer” and “Breast Cancer Molecular Testing for Prognosis and Prediction”. In addition, since publication of the previous edition, the results of numerous adjuvant systemic therapy and neo-adjuvant systemic therapy trials have been published, and this edition provides a comprehensive overview of these trials and discusses how they have changed the management of breast cancer. Similarly, there have been, in the last few years, important new developments in the local therapy of breast cancer. This edition discusses these new developments and particularly recent developments and controversies concerning the management of the axilla in patients with primary breast cancer. New guidelines with respect to radiotherapy are also reviewed and discussed. Finally, all chapters in the book are thoroughly revised and updated to provide readers with current understanding of the biology and treatment of breast cancer.
