Radiation therapy in the management of breast cancer brain metastases: the impact of receptor status on treatment response, intracranial recurrence, and survival

ConclusionReceptor subtypes that demonstrated poorer OS tended to demonstrate higher intracranial recurrence. A positive response to radiation was not associated with better OS or lower ICR. Identifying patterns based on receptor subtype may guide clinicians in management and surveillance for BCBM.
