Latest revision as of 11:19, 6 July 2024

The purpose of this page is to provide references to "null therapy" such as placebo and observation. These references provide further insight into the historical development of the treatment landscape. See the main breast cancer page for regimens that include active anticancer treatment.

1Reported efficacy for DBCG 77B is based on the 2010 update.
2Reported efficacy for NSABP B-13 is based on the 1996 update.
Note: No further systemic treatment; many of these trials incorporated RT, however (see individual papers for details). Jakesz et al. 1998 was conducted prior to routine testing of HER2, so it technically included "double-negative" patients. ECOG E1180 is also known as INT-0011.

1Reported efficacy for NSABP B-05 is based on the 1986 update.
2Reported efficacy for OlympiA is based on the 2022 update.
No active antineoplastic treatment within the study design. Used as a comparator arm. Note that some trials do have other ongoing antineoplastic treatments outside of the study design, such as adjuvant radiation therapy.
