Abstract P1-08-19: 10-year conditional recurrence risks, overall and relative survival for breast cancer patients in the Netherlands: Taking account of event-free years
Abstract:Background
Survival estimates valid at the time of diagnosis are of limited value for (ex-)breast cancer patients who survived several years, as it includes information on already deceased patients. This study analyzed the 10-year conditional risk of recurrent breast cancer in specific prognostic subgroups according to T and N stage and breast cancer subtypes. Secondly, we investigated 10-year conditional overall (OS) and relative survival (RS), adjusted for confounding.
