However, the risk of relapse remains significant, estimated at around 20% according to studies. The SOFT study, which compares the type of hormone therapy …
This study assesses changes to the immune cells following hypofractionated radiation-induced DNA damage in breast cancer patients. Radiation therapy may cause immune cells to enter tumors and target cancer cells. The goal of this study is to measure the change in the level of immune cells in the tumor before …
