About one third of women diagnosed with breast cancer will develop
metastatic disease and subsequently die from their advanced breast
cancer. Recent developments with novel systemic drugs, palliative
surgical techniques and diagnostic imaging have given hope for the
treatment of patients whose breast cancer has spread beyond its primary
tumour.
Written by a team from leading cancer centres in Europe, including the
UK's Royal Marsden Hospital, the Handbook of Metastatic Breast Cancer,
Second Edition provides advanced scientific information and guidance on
clinical problems associated with metastatic breast cancer.
Highlights of the Second Edition include:
New chapters on specialist treatment options, gene expression
signatures, biomarkers, and specialist support services for patients and
their families
Significant updates to chapters discussing systemic treatments for
breast cancer, including endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, targeted
therapies, and bisphosphonates
Up-to-date information on diagnostic imaging and tumour assessment,
including positron emission tomography and computed tomography
Up-to-date information on local treatment options for neurological, thoracic, orthopaedic, and hepatic complications
This handbook will be a practical and comprehensive resource for medical
and clinical oncologists, breast surgeons and radiologists, as well as
neurosurgeons, clinical scientists, orthopaedic and thoracic surgeons.
