Clinical utility of fulvestrant in the treatment of breast cancer: a report on the emerging clinical evidence

TL;DR: Fulvestrant is a key drug in the treatment of ABC, whose role in combination with new targeted agents is still evolving, and studies in combinations with more selective inhibitors of the α-catalytic subunit of PI3K are ongoing.

Agreement between MRI and pathologic analyses for determination of tumor size and correlation with immunohistochemical factors of invasive breast carcinoma

TL;DR: ER negativity and larger tumor size were strongly associated with MRI-pathology discordance in invasive breast carcinomas, and awareness of these factors might improve surgical planning.

Axillary dissection vs no axillary dissection in women with invasive breast cancer and sentinel node metastasis: A randomized clinical trial

TL;DR: Among patients with limited SLN metastatic breast cancer treated with breast conservation and systemic therapy, the use of SLND alone compared with ALND did not result in inferior survival, and overall survival was the primary end point, with a noninferiority margin of a 1-sided hazard ratio of less than 1.3 indicating thatSLND alone is noninherited.
