Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine the impact of primary tumor resection on survival rates in women with bone metastatic breast cancer, analyzing data from 2010 to 2016 and categorizing patients by hormone receptor (HR) and HER2 statuses.
- A total of 13,450 female patients were included, revealing that survival rates varied by subtype, with triple-negative breast cancer patients having the lowest five-year overall survival rate of just 8.0%.
- Resection of the primary tumor was found to improve survival across most subtypes but did not have a significant effect in the HR-/HER2+ group.
