New Prognostic Tool Accurately Predicts Breast Cancer Survival in US Population
The PREDICT Breast v3 tool was tested in US breast cancer patients to see how well it predicts survival rates. The tool was accurate in estimating 10- and 15-year survival for most patients, but adjustments are needed for certain groups like non-Hispanic Asian and non-Hispanic Black patients with specific types of breast cancer. Overall, the tool can help doctors predict how long a patient may survive with breast cancer, but more work is needed to make sure everyone gets the same level of care.
