Genetic testing trial aims to match breast cancer patients with right treatments

NCT ID NCT01334021

Summary

This study is testing whether analyzing the genetic makeup of breast tumors can help predict which standard treatments will work best for individual patients. Researchers are enrolling 1,100 people with early-stage breast cancer to see if genetic testing can accurately identify tumors that will respond to chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or both. The goal is to learn if this approach can help doctors choose the most effective treatment for each patient while avoiding unnecessary treatments.
