Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
In some cases of hormone receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative early breast cancer the benefit of adding adjuvant chemotherapy to hormonal treatment, estimated on the basis of the classical clinico-pathological parameters, is unclear. In these cases the application of a genomic test could be useful in guiding the therapeutic choice.
