| Translational Therapies |
| Knowledge of the basic biology
underlying the development and progression of
breast cancer is
growing at a dramatic pace. This information
is being rapidly translated from the lab to the
clinic
in the form of new diagnostic and prognostic
tools and is providing new targets for drug development.
Genomic tools are increasingly being utilized
to categorize breast cancer into biologic subtypes,
assess recurrence risk, and identify patients
most
likely to derive benefit from conventional chemotherapies
and new targeted agents. In addition, technologies
for detecting micrometastases, circulating tumor
cells, and circulating endothelial calls are
under investigation as tools for prognosticating
outcomes
and evaluating response to therapy. This expanding
armamentarium of technologies will aid in the
individualization and optimization of therapies
in an environment
of ever-growing treatment options. |
