Track 1: Breast Cancer-Present Perspective

At least one in nine women develops breast cancer at some stage in their life. About 48,000 cases occur in the United Kingdom every year. Mostly develops in women over the age of 50 but younger women are also sometimes affected. Breast cancer can also develop in men, but this is rare. Breast cancer develops from a cancerous cell which develops in the lining of a mammary duct or a lobule in one of the breasts. It follows the classic progression though it often becomes systemic or widespread in the early onset of the disease. During this period, the cancer may metastasize, or spread through lymphatic’s or blood stream to areas elsewhere in the body. If breast cancer spreads to vital organs of the body, its presence will compromise the function of those organs. Fatal death is the result of extreme case of vital organ function.

Track 2: Types of breast cancer

Breast cancer can begin in different areas of the breast — the ducts, the lobules, or in some cases, the tissue in between. In this section, you can learn about the different types of breast cancer, including non-invasive, invasive, recurrent, and metastatic breast cancers.

Track 3: Causes of Breast Cancer

Experts are not definitively sure what causes breast cancer. It is hard to say why one person develops the disease while another does not. We know that some risk factors can impact on a woman's likelihood of developing breast cancer. These are: The older a woman gets, the higher is her risk of developing breast cancer; age is a risk factor. Over 80% of all female breast cancers occur among women aged 50+ years (after the menopause). Women who carry the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes have a considerably higher risk of developing breast and/or ovarian cancer. These genes can be inherited. The Mayo Clinic says that if a woman wants to drink, she should not exceed one alcoholic beverage per day Undergoing X-rays and CT scans may raise a woman's risk of developing breast cancer slightly. Scientists at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Centre found that women who had been treated with radiation to the chest for a childhood cancer have a higher risk of developing breast cancer both forms, combined and oestrogen only HRT therapies may increase a woman's risk of developing breast cancer slightly. Combined HRT causes a higher risk. French researchers found that women who worked at night prior to a first pregnancy had a higher risk of eventually developing breast cancer.

Track 4: Epidemiology

The epidemiology of Breast cancer is the study of the factors affecting cancer, as a way to infer possible trends and causes.  Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women, with approximately 182,000 women diagnosed with breast cancer annually in the United States, accounting for approximately 26% of all incident cancers among women. Each year, 40,000 women die of breast cancer, making it the second-leading cause of cancer deaths among American women after lung cancer. The lifetime risk of dying of breast cancer is approximately 3.4%. Breast cancer comprises 22.9% of invasive cancers in women and 16% of all female cancers. In 2008, breast cancer caused 458,503 deaths worldwide, 13.7% of cancer deaths in women and 6.0% of all cancer deaths for men and women together. The number of cases worldwide has significantly increased since the 1970s, a phenomenon partly attributed to the modern lifestyles.

Track 5: Diagnosis

Breast cancers are easy to diagnose by microscopic analysis of a sample or biopsy of the affected area of the breast. Also, there are types of breast cancer that require specialized lab exams. The two most commonly used screening methods, physical examination of the breasts by a healthcare provider and mammography, can offer an approximate likelihood that a lump is cancer, and may also detect some other lesions, such as a simple cyst. When these examinations are inconclusive, a healthcare provider can remove a sample of the fluid in the lump for microscopic analysis ,a procedure known as fine needle aspiration, or fine needle aspiration and cytology—FNAC to help establish the diagnosis. The needle aspiration may be performed in a healthcare provider's office or clinic using local anaesthetic if required. A finding of clear fluid makes the lump highly unlikely to be cancerous, but bloody fluid may be sent off for inspection under a microscope for cancerous cells. Together, physical examination of the breasts, mammography, and FNAC can be used to diagnose breast cancer with a good degree of accuracy.

Track 6: Treatments for breast cancer

Breast cancer treatment takes different approaches depending on the conditions. The mainstay of breast cancer treatment is surgery when the tumour is localized, followed by chemotherapy (when indicated), radiotherapy, and, for ER-positive tumours, adjuvant hormonal therapy (with tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor). Management of breast cancer is undertaken by a multidisciplinary team based on national and international guidelines. Depending on clinical criteria (age, type of cancer, size, presence or absence of metastasis) patients are roughly divided to high risk and low risk cases, with each risk category following different rules for therapy. Treatment possibilities include radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and immune therapy.

Track 7: Chemotherapy

Neoadjuvant therapy is the administration of therapeutic agents before a main treatment. One example is neoadjuvant hormone therapy prior to radical therapy for adenocarcinoma   of the prostate. Adjuvant therapy or care, also called adjunct therapy or adjunctive therapy or care, is therapy that is given in addition to the primary, main, or initial therapy to maximize its effectiveness. The surgeries and complex treatment regimens used in cancer therapy have led the term to be used mainly to describe adjuvant cancer treatments. Palliative care is a multidisciplinary approach to specialized medical care for people with serious illnesses. It focuses on providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain, physical stress, and mental stress of a serious illness—whatever the diagnosis. The goal of such therapy is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family. Palliative care is provided by a team of physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and other health professionals who work together with the primary care physician and referred specialists (or, for patients who don't have those, hospital or hospital staff) to provide an extra layer of support.

Track 8: Breast cancer Surgery Choices

Most women with breast cancer have a kind of surgery. Surgery is often needed to discard a breast tumour. It includes breast conserving surgery and mastectomy (complete removal of breast). The breast can be reconstructed at the same time as surgery in progress and later on. Surgery is also used to find out the lymph nodes under the arm for cancer spread. It includes a sentinel lymph node biopsy when it has been affected to the lymphatic system and an axillary lymph node dissection. Mastectomy involves the removal of entire breast. When the lymph nodes have cancer cells, there might be a higher chance that cancer cells may spread through the bloodstream to vital parts of the body. Cancer cells in the lymph nodes under the arm is often an important criteria in deciding what treatment, in this case physicians prefer Lymph node surgery. Breast reconstructive therapy involves the restoration of the breast appearance after the surgery. Possible side effects may prone to manifest with women after breast cancer surgery.

Track 9: Innovative Therapeutic Approaches in Breast Cancer

Targeted Therapies is one of the innovative in breast cancer treatment. Several clinical trials led by physician-scientists at Mass General are revealing the power of new targeted anticancer therapies in breast cancer. Everolimus is a targeted therapy that works by zeroing in on the mTOR protein, which is regulated by the family of enzymes known as PI3 kinases (PI3K). In healthy cells, mTOR is involved in cell growth, cell proliferation, protein synthesis, and many other functions. Partial Breast  Irradiation many women who choose not to have a mastectomy instead undergo breast-conserving surgery where only the tumour and a small margin of tissue are removed, followed by a six-week course of daily radiation to the whole breast. Surgical Advances Two surgical advances available at Mass General are helping reduce complications and improve cosmetic appearance after breast cancer surgery.

Track 10: Clinical Trials -Breast Cancer

Phase 1 (phase I) trials study whether a new treatment is safe to use over a range of doses. The treatment may be given to people with different types of cancers.

A phase 1 trial is mainly a drug safety study.

Phase 2 (phase II) trials study how well a treatment works for a certain cancer, such as breast cancer. These trials may include between 25 and 100 people.

After a drug (or other therapy) is found to be effective in treating breast cancer in a phase 2 trial, a phase 3 trial will study it further.

Phase 3 (phase III) trials study how well a new treatment (including surgical procedures) works compared to the standard treatment (standard of care).

Phase 4 (phase IV) trials study the long-term side effects of treatments or answer new questions about the treatment.

Track 11: Prevention Of Breast cancer

Surgical removal of both breasts is another preventative measure in some high risk women. In those who have been diagnosed with cancer, a number of treatments may be used, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy and targeted therapy. Types of surgery vary from breast-conserving surgery to mastectomy Breast reconstruction may take place at the time of surgery or at a later date. In those in whom the cancer has spread to other parts of the body, treatments are mostly aimed at improving quality of life and comfort. The balance of benefits versus harms of breast cancer screening is controversial. Breast cancer most commonly develops in cells from the lining of milk ducts and the lobules that supply the ducts with milk. Cancers developing from the ducts are known as ductal carcinomas, while those developing from lobules are known as lobular carcinomas.

Track 12: Breast cancer during pregnancy

During pregnancy your breasts change in readiness for breast feeding. The breast tissue becomes more dense. This can make it more difficult to find changes in the breast that are due to cancer. The most common symptom of breast cancer is a lump. If you have a change that doesn’t go away after 2 to 4 weeks tell your doctor or midwife. Research shows that during pregnancy there is often a delay in diagnosis after women start to get breast symptoms. This is partly because breast cancer in pregnancy is so rare. It is also because the cancer can be difficult to diagnose because of the changes in the breast tissue. If the biopsy shows that you have cancer you may then have other tests to check the size of your cancer. Deciding which treatment to have and what that will mean for you and your developing baby can be very difficult. Doctors advise that your treatment should be as close as possible to what someone who isn’t pregnant would have. And whenever possible the treatment should not be delayed.

Track 13: Society and culture

Before the 20th century, breast cancer was feared and discussed in hushed tones, as if it were shameful. As little could be safely done with primitive surgical techniques, women tended to suffer silently rather than seeking care. When surgery advanced, and long-term survival rates improved, women began raising awareness of the disease and the possibility of successful treatment. A Pink Ribbon is the most prominent symbol of breast cancer awareness. Pink ribbons, which can be made inexpensively, are sometimes sold as fundraisers, much like poppies on Remembrance Day. They may be worn to honour those who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, or to identify products that the manufacturer would like to sell to consumers that are interested in breast cancer—usually white, middle-aged, middle-class and upper-class, educated women.

Track 14:Women’s health

Being a woman has a significant impact on health, as a result of both biological and gender-related disparities. The health of women and girls is of particular concern because, in many societies and communities, they are disadvantaged by discrimination in sociocultural factors. For example, women and girls face high vulnerability to HIV. Some of the difficulties faces by women these days includes-Hysterectomy is major surgery to remove your uterus or womb, menopause sometime between the ages of 45 and 55, but each woman will experience menopause differently, suffering from heavy, painful periods, vaginal problems at some stage. Whilst usually not serious, there are many different causes of vaginal problems including vaginal discharge, vaginal dryness, vaginal irritation and infection. Endometriosis -the tissue that lines the uterus is also found outside the uterine cavity, which can cause infertility.

Track 15: Women's   mental health

About 25% of people who die by suicide are women. Again, women’s greater emotional literacy and readiness to talk to others about their feelings and seek help may protect them from suicidal feelings. Being a mother also makes women less likely to take their own life .Women are more likely to have been treated for a Mental Health Problem than men (29% compared with 17%). This reflects women's greater willingness to acknowledge that they are troubled and get support. More women than men experience depression. However, some researchers dispute the relatively low depression rate for men. Post-natal depression is believed to affect between 8-15% of women after they have given birth.. Phobias affect about 22 in 1,000 women in the UK, compared with 13 in 1,000 men Two thirds of people with dementia are women. Risk of Dementia increases with age, and women have a higher life expectancy than men.

Track 16: Contraceptive technology and Pregnancy

Barrier contraceptives are devices that attempt to prevent pregnancy by physically preventing sperm from entering the uterus. They include male condoms, female condoms, cervical caps, diaphragms, and contraceptive sponges with spermicide. Globally, condoms are the most common method of birth control Outlined here are the different types of barrier methods, spermicides, or coitus interrupts that must be used at before every act of intercourse. Immediate contraception, like physical barriers, include diaphragms, caps, the contraceptive sponge, and female condoms may be placed several hours before intercourse begins. The female condom should be removed immediately after intercourse, and before arising. Some other female barrier methods must be left in place for several hours after sex. Depending on the form of spermicide used, they may be applied several minutes to an hour before intercourse begins. Additionally, the male condom should be applied when the penis is erect so that it is properly applied prior to intercourse.

Track 17:  Menopause and its Management

Symptoms: Irregular periods, Lower fertility, Vaginal dryness, Hot flashes (UK term: hot flushes), Night sweats, Disturbed sleep, Urinary problems, Moodiness, More fat building up in the abdomen, Hair loss (thinning hair), Loss of breast size. Perimenopause is a natural stage of life. It is not a disease or a disorder. Therefore, it does not automatically require any kind of medical treatment. However, in those cases where the physical, mental, and emotional effects of perimenopause are strong enough that they significantly disrupt the life of the woman experiencing them, palliative medical therapy may sometimes be appropriate. The cultural context within which a woman lives can have a significant impact on the way she experiences the menopausal transition. Menopause has been described as a subjective experience, with social and cultural factors playing a prominent role in the way menopause is experienced and perceived.
