Epidemiology, biology, and treatment of triple-negative breast cancer in women of African ancestry.

The Lancet. Oncology - 1 Dec 2014

Brewster Abenaa M, Chavez-MacGregor Mariana, Brown Powel

Abstract excerpt

Breast cancer incidence is increasing worldwide, and breast cancer-related mortality is highest in women of African ancestry, who are more likely to have basal-like or triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) than are women of European ancestry. Identification of cultural, epidemiological, and genetic risk factors that predispose women of African ancestry to TNBC is an active area of research. Despite the aggressive...
