Paolo Tarantino: EBCTCG analysis of breast cancer patients outcomes over two decades

Paolo Tarantino shared on X:

“What is the actual impact of breast cancer clinical research on patients outcomes? Proud to share our editorial just published in The Lancet, where Sara Tolaney and I discuss the results of an EBCTCG analysis of 151 trials which analyzed BC patients outcomes over two decades.

After correction for tumor features and treatments, patients diagnosed after 2000 were found to have 20-25% lower rate of distant recurrence than those diagnosed in the 90s, highlighting a steady progress in patients management and outcomes.

Link to the new EBCTCG meta-analysis.”
