ASCO June 5 2019: Race and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy

AUTHORS: Raquel Nunes, Femke de Snoo, Lisette Stork-Sloots, Tina Treece, Christa Dreezen, William Audeh DESCRIPTION: Race and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy according to MammaPrint risk African-American (AA) women with breast cancer have a less favorable prognosis, likely due to differences in tumor biology.
