Audio-Digest Foundation Announces the Release of Oncology Volume 04, Issue 22: Whats New in Breast Cancer?

The goal of this program is to improve the management of breast cancer. After hearing and assimilating this program, the clinician will be better able to:

1. Recognize the role of cancer stem cells and their microenvironment in the development and recurrence of breast cancer. 2. List components of the stem cell compartment and microenvironment that promote the development of breast cancer. 3. Explain a proposed mechanism by which cancer stem cells may maintain their stemness. 4. Select patients most likely to benefit from prolonged tamoxifen therapy. 5. Weigh the benefits and risks of newer breast cancer therapies.

The original programs were presented by Issam Makhoul, MD, Assistant Professor, Division of Hematology/Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine, and University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, College of Medicine, Little Rock.
