A review that summarized the available data on endocrine therapy for premenopausal women with HER2-negative hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) has been published in the Oncologist.
During the past 30 years, the incidence of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in women aged 25-39 years has slightly increased. Up to date, no comprehensive review exists for therapeutic approaches in that patient population. Therefore, this review aimed to provide clinicians with an overview on the available data regarding endocrine treatment of hormone receptor-positive MBC in premenopausal women and to indicate potential future directions of research.
