Abstract:
Relapse of breast cancer connotes a dire prognosis. However, long-term survival with remissions and disease exacerbation are possible using conservative treatment strategies and often sequential hormonal manipulations. Hormonal therapy is the mainstay of metastatic breast cancer treatment for patients with hormonally sensitive tumors; cytotoxic chemotherapy, for patients with hormonally independent tumors. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow reinfusion is currently under investigation.
