  • Title: Receptors in the management of breast cancer.
    Author: Hawkins RA.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; 1985 Sep; 34(3):160-4. PubMed ID: 2415195.
    Abstract:
    Assay of breast cancers for oestrogen receptors helps to select advanced cases (about 30%) who will benefit from milder (endocrine) therapy, and, in early disease, gauge overall survival and likelihood of benefit from adjuvant endocrine therapy. A reliable immunocytochemical assay for receptor, now available, should extend the usefulness of such measurements.
