Results from studies of adjuvant systemic therapy for primary breast cancer
accumulated over the past 20 years have clearly established that this
treatment approach improves disease-free and overall survival rates in
high-risk patients. As a result, adjuvant systemic therapy has become an
integral component of the modern, multimodality approach to management of
primary breast cancer. However, controversies about the most effective
approaches remain, and research continues. This article reviews the current
status of adjuvant systemic therapy for primary breast cancer and discusses
areas of persistent controversy.
