Incidence of treated brain metastases among patients with stage I-III breast cancer: A population-based study

Up to 13% of patients with stage III HER2+ or TNBC received treatment for brain metastases within 5 years of diagnosis with early-stage breast cancer. These findings support prospective studies of risk-stratified screening for asymptomatic brain metastases in patients with early-stage breast cancer.

Abstract

Up to 13% of patients with stage III HER2+ or TNBC received treatment for brain metastases within 5 years of diagnosis with early-stage breast cancer. These findings support prospective studies of risk-stratified screening for asymptomatic brain metastases in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
