  • Title: Treatment and survival on advanced breast cancer.
    Author: Priestman T, Baum M, Jones V, Forbes J.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1978 Dec 16; 2(6153):1673-4. PubMed ID: 367510.
    Abstract:
    The final results of a clinical trial comparing endocrine with cytotoxic drug treatment for advanced breast cancer were analysed. Although cytotoxic treatment gave a significantly higher response rate with a remission duration comparable to that obtained with endocrine treatment, the sequence in which the two treatments were given did not appear to influence survival--except possibly in women with rapidly progressing disease, when cytotoxic treatment is preferred.
