Article Title: Recent Advances in the treatment of breast cancer: Highlights from the 2010 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium - Management of Advanced Breast Cancer
Abstract: The annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) remains one of the most important meetings in the field of breast cancer. SABCS is a forum to present relevant information, combining discussions and presentations in the setting of basic research, translational research, and clinical cancer research. Many of these studies impact patient management and guide the development of new research strategies. The 2010 SABCS was very well attended by investigators, clinicians, and allied health professionals from multiple countries. Presentations at the meeting addressed specific topics, including prevention, management of patients in the early and advanced stage settings, and utilization of molecular markers for research strategies. There were many areas that disclosed important information for clinicians and patients. The abstracts included in this supplement concentrate on advancements in the management of breast cancer patients with both early-stage and advanced-stage disease. © 2011 Millennium Medical Publishing, Inc.
