Risk categories for women with node-negative breast cancer
Adjuvant systemic treatment options for women with axillary node-negative breast cancer
Treatment options for women with axillary node-positive breast

8-Year Survival of Patients with Breast Cancer According to Stage:
I- 90%
II- 70%
III- 40%
IV- 10%

Risk categories for women with node-negative breast cancer
LOW RISK:
tumor size (<=1CM) AND ER or PR (positive) AND tumor grade (grade 1)
INTERMEDIATE RISK:
tumor size (1-2CM) AND ER or PR (positive) AND tumor grade (grade 1-2)
HIGH-RISK:
tumor size (>2 CM) OR ER or PR (negative) OR tumor grade (grade 2-3)

____________________________________________________
