Breast cancer prognostic factors

A number of potential prognostic factors have been identified for breast cancer. Prognostic factors are measurements available at diagnosis or time of surgery that in the absence of adjuvant therapy are associated with recurrence rate, death rate, or other clinical outcome. [Pg.1307]

The two variables most strongly associated with the occurrence of breast cancer are gender and age. Although one commonly thinks of breast cancer as a disease confined to women, about 1,720 cases of male breast cancer were projected to be diagnosed in the United States in 2006.1 When stage and other known prognostic factors are controlled for, men do not fare any differently from their female counterparts and receive similar treatment regimens. [Pg.1304]

Tumor size and the presence and number of involved axillary lymph nodes are primary factors in assessing the risk for breast cancer recurrence and subsequent metastatic disease. Other disease characteristics that provide prognostic information include histologic subtype, nuclear or histologic grade, lymphatic and vascular invasion, and proliferation indices. [Pg.693]

Breast cancer patients with the same stage of disease can have markedly different clinical outcomes. Traditional diagnostic and prognostic factors may stratify patients with molecularly distinct diseases into the same group based on morphological assessments. It remains a critical issue to reliably identify specific breast cancer patients at high risk for recurrent and metastatic disease. Molecular prediction is the future direction of personalized cancer care. [Pg.289]
