ABSTRACT
The 40th annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium was convened in San Antonio, TX, USA on 5-9 December 2017. More than 7500 clinicians and scientists from around the world participated in the symposium which featured a range of presentations and keynote talks pertaining to breast cancer screening, prevention, loco-regional and systemic therapies. This two-part report highlights a selection of important studies presented at this premier breast cancer event with part 1 focusing on dose-intense radiotherapy, perioperative endocrine therapy, duration of bisphosphonates, immunotherapy, ovarian function suppression and acupuncture. The second part of this report will discuss a range of topics related to de-escalation of loco-regional therapies, the significance of complete pathological response, older patients and CDK 4/6 inhibitors, circulating tumor cells and plasma DNA as a tumor marker.
