Authors' conclusions: The data included in this review, from three well conducted randomised trials, suggest that different methods of sequencing chemotherapy and radiotherapy do not appear to have a major effect on survival or recurrence for women with breast cancer if radiation therapy is commenced within 7 months after surgery.
