Background: Increased childhood cancer survival rates have spurred a new body of research pertaining to the cancer-survivorship continuum. Literature suggests lack and guidelines for care at end treatment (EOT). To improve transition survivorship determine any posttreatment challenges, this study explored experiences survivors (CCSs), parents/caregivers, pediatric oncology health professionals (HCPs) EOT. Method: This employed mixed methods design. EOT Questionnaires were completed by CCSs...

Abstract Background: In node negative and 1-3 positive nodes breast cancer patients with hormone receptor (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2-) early-stage the indication for chemotherapy is based on clinical pathologic risk stratification (tumor size, nodal status, grading, quantitative ER, progesterone Ki67). For further decision-making, EndoPredict test, which combines a molecular signature factors tumor size stratifies into “low risk" or “high risk” groups. Level I-B- evidence demonstrates, that...
