Abstract:
Although patients over 65 years of age represent the majority of breast cancer patients, we have limited data on the safety and efficacy of medical oncology treatments in this population. Their indications are based primarily on expert agreement. This literature review discusses the known data on the safety and efficacy of the main medical treatments for breast cancer: chemotherapy, cytokine-dependent kinase inhibitors 4/6, agents targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor-2, novel antibody conjugates, and immunotherapy.

However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
