A collaborative study of the etiology of breast cancer subtypes in African American women: the AMBER consortium.

Cancer causes & control : CCC - 1 Mar 2014

Palmer Julie R, Ambrosone Christine B, Olshan Andrew F

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, with at least five intrinsic subtypes defined by molecular characteristics. Tumors that express the estrogen receptor (ER+) have better outcomes than ER- tumors, due in part to the success of hormonal therapies that target ER+ tumors. The incidence of ER- breast cancer, and the subset of ER- cancers that are basal-like, is about twice as high among African...
