Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: Clinical Features and Patterns of Recurrence

TL;DR: Triple-negative breast cancers have a more aggressive clinical course than other forms of breast cancer, but the adverse effect is transient.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pattern of metastatic spread in triple-negative breast cancer

TL;DR: The excess risk of distant recurrence in triple-negative breast cancers, versus other forms of cancer, is attributable in large part to an excess of visceral metastases in the first five years following diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival outcomes for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer: implications for clinical practice and trial design.

TL;DR: The duration of first-, second-, and third-line chemotherapy as a surrogate for duration of treatment response was evaluated to identify prognostic variables and revealed that age < 50 years, ALP > 120 U/L, history of previous chemotherapy, DDFI < 12 months, and visceral presentation were all independently associated with a poor prognosis.
