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. The Neoadjuvant BReast Cancer Symphony Trial (NBRST, Read More

Estrogen Receptor Variants in ER-Positive Basal-Type Breast Cancers Responding to Therapy Like ER-Negative Breast Cancers

PUBLICATION: npj Breast Cancer; volume 5, Article number: 15 (2019). AUTHORS: Floris H. Groenendijk, Tina Treece, Erin Yoder, Paul Baron, Peter Beitsch, William Audeh, Winand N. M.
