Executive Summary
Several research studies have been conducted to seek more information on inflammatory breast cancer, their related prevention method, their diagnostic approach at the initial phase, and the best treatments strategies. Through clinical trials, new options for patients are being integrated into the research of inflammatory breast cancer. Specific combinations of drugs or drugs and radiation therapy might prevent cancer recurrence in treating inflammatory breast cancer. For advanced cancer, treatments that include targeted new medicines or medicines that affect the immune system are being studied. Clinical trials are underway to find better ways to reduce symptoms and side effects of the present cancer treatments to improve patients comfort and quality of life.
Advancement in Inflammatory Breast Cancer Research
Based on Latest Research on Inflammatory Breast Cancer Doctors are learning more about inflammatory breast cancer, how to best treat it, ways to prevent it, and how to deliver the best care to people diagnosed with this cancer.
The given areas of Research on Inflammatory Breast tumour may include new options for patients through clinical trials.
- New drugs and treatment combinations – There is interest in treating inflammatory breast cancer with a specific combination of drugs or combinations of drugs and radiation therapy that might prevent cancer recurrence. For advanced cancer, treatments that include new targeted drugs or drugs that affect the immune system are being studied 1.
