Traitement médical du cancer du sein métastatique

  • Conference paper
Cancer du sein

Abstrait

Dans le cancer du sein, l’apparition de métastases est signe d’incurabilité et relève d’un traitement médical dont deux modalités, l’hormonothérapie et la chimiothérapie, sont utilisées depuis des décennies et une, l’immunothérapie, d’utilisation récente, annonce les thérapies ciblées. L’efficacité des traitements disponibles constatée quotidiennement est temporaire, modeste individuellement mais somme toute bénéfique par leur diversité.
