Re: How many progress to Stage IV?
If you refer to her2 positives I think not enough time has gone by to gather enough info for this, there's pre and post herceptin which has made such a difference to what use to be a very dire prognosis indeed. I was dx in 2005 but everyone I know that was dx then that was her2+ are still doing well and NED, sadly I can't say the same for other types of bc sadly.
