Abstract
Substantial progress has been made in contemporary breast cancer care, resulting in a consistently declining breast cancer mortality rate and an improvement in quality of life. Advancements include deescalation of therapy in low-risk populations and refining systemic therapy options. Research into molecular biomarkers continues to evolve and holds the promise of achieving the goal of precision medicine, while guidelines for supportive care and survivorship have been created to address the needs of an ever-increasing number of breast cancer survivors. A collaborative, multidisciplinary team approach is essential for patients and survivors to achieve optimal outcomes and enjoy productive high-quality lives. Gynecologists, in particular, play a key role in screening and survivorship care.
