Breast Cancer Specialists
According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, an estimated 268,600 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in the U.S. as well as 62,930 new cases of non-invasive breast cancer. It is also the most common cancer diagnosed and the second leading cause of death amongst U.S. women. Due to the severity of this disease, it is important to know all your options and find the best care, which is where Massive Bio can help.
Massive Bio’s number one priority is to create positive outcomes for cancer patients. With the Clinical Trial Matching Service and Virtual Tumor Board, you are one step closer to reaching that positive outcome.
Cancer clinical trials are important for cancer treatment; they find and prove new ways to fight cancer. By participating in a clinical trial, you can find the best treatment for your breast cancer and help others who are struggling with breast cancer. Getting access to the right clinical trials and the right treatments shouldn’t have to be overwhelming. That’s why Massive Bio uses the clinical trial matching service to match breast cancer patients to the right clinical trials based on the stage of the disease, biomarker status, geographical location, and past medical history.
Breast Cancer Treatment Options
Treatment for breast cancer is determined by the type of breast cancer, stage and grade, size of tumor and sensitivity of cancer cells to hormones. Most common types of treatment involve surgery and potentially additional post-surgery treatment including chemotherapy, hormone therapy or radiation.
For surgery, a lumpectomy involves removing only the part of the breast that has the tumor, while a mastectomy involves removing the entire breast. Chemotherapy can be taken as drugs or pills or through an IV to decrease the size of the tumor. Hormone therapy blocks the hormones estrogen and progesterone, which cause cancer cells to grow and radiation uses high-energy waves to kill cancer cells.
Clinical trials can also be recommended by your doctor when standard treatment isn’t enough. Clinical trials can provide new treatment and help push cancer research forward. Treatments received in a clinical trial have yet to be FDA approved and put in place in the general medical market.
