While it has long been recognized that drugs that block the cancer-promoting activity of estrogen reduce risk of developing new breast cancers, a new computer modeling study led by researchers at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center and colleagues showed that these treatments could also reduce the risk of dying from the disease in women who are at high risk.
A new treatment approach developed at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has shown promising results in a phase I clinical trial for patients with triple-negative breast cancer, the most aggressive type of breast cancer. Results of the study are newly reported in The Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer.
