Clinical Trial Participation Tied to Improved Breast Cancer Outcomes

Hopeful,

I am looking at the numbers and this article is somewhat confusing.

I love the idea of more women participating in a clinical trial. My personal experience was that the follow up is better with a trial, then when I was not in a clinical trial.

I like the idea of additional training for oncology surgery, and making it easier for all surgeons to have access to clinical trials.

I'm not so thrilled about trying to force all women into radiation or chemotherapy. And if they are dreaming about getting an alert when women don't complete chemo - they can be alerted all they want, not every person can tolerate chemo.

How about something more useful for our dollars, like tracking who is recurring?
