Radiation therapy vs Systemic therapy for Breast Cancer

Drew Moghanaki, Professor and Chief of Thoracic Oncology at the Department of Radiation Oncology, UCLA, shared a recent article by Icro Meattini on X:

“A phase III randomized clinical trial shows better patient-centered outcomes with radiation therapy vs systemic therapy (for breast cancer).

An excellent summary by QuadShot News highlights the implications.”
