Adherence to nutrition-based cancer prevention guidelines and breast, prostate and colorectal cancer risk in the MCC-Spain case-control study

TL;DR: Evaluation of the association between adherence to nutrition‐based guidelines for cancer prevention and prostate, breast and colorectal cancer in the MCC‐Spain case–control study concluded that a great proportion of common cancer cases could be avoided by adopting healthy lifestyle habits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular signatures in breast cancer

TL;DR: The approaches that have been used to develop gene expression signatures into currently available diagnostic assays are reviewed, plus the latest work on genome sequencing, the methodologies used in the discovery process of mutational signatures, and the potential of these signatures to impact the clinic are described.

Biomarkers of drugs targeting HER-family signalling in cancer.

TL;DR: A review of the value of promising biomarkers of drugs targeting HER‐family receptor targeting on breast cancer and gastric cancer, where HER2 targeting has emerged recently as a successful strategy.

Immunohistochemistry for diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer: a review.

TL;DR: Immunohistochemistry can be used to evaluate central prognostic and predictive factors including molecular subtypes, HER2, hormone receptors, proliferation markers (Ki-67) and lymph-vascular invasion markers including ERG, CD31, CD34, factor VIII and podoplanin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive effects of endocrine therapy for breast cancer: keep calm and carry on?

TL;DR: The tissue-selective side effects of endocrine therapies and specifically their impact on cognitive function, on the basis of clinical data are discussed; the neurobiological effects ofendocrine therapies as observed in preclinical models are also discussed.

Strategies for subtypes—dealing with the diversity of breast cancer: highlights of the St Gallen International Expert Consensus on the Primary Therapy of Early Breast Cancer 2011

TL;DR: Broad treatment recommendations are presented, recognizing that detailed treatment decisions need to consider disease extent, host factors, patient preferences, and social and economic constraints.

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.
