Authors: Alex Schick et al.

“New University of Rochester Research led by Ajay Dhakal, MBBS, highlights the critical need to control systemic disease among patients with breast cancer who have received stereotactic radiosurgery to brain metastases.

In the study, published in npj Breast Cancer (a Nature Portfolio journal), patients with early systemic disease progression had significantly worse central nervous system (CNS) failure-free survival and overall survival compared to those without early systemic disease progression.”
