Identifying breast cancer patients who can be spared chemotherapy, evidence from recent studies

At the 10th European Breast Cancer Conference (EBCC), held in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, from 9 to 11 March 2016, Oleg Gluz, MD, from the West German Study Group, Mönchengladbach, Germany, discusses the evidence of the predictive value of the Recurrence Score® result to guide decision making for adjuvant chemotherapy.
