Question: Are we winning the battle against breast cancer?

Dr. Susan Love answers the question: 'Are We Winning the Breast Cancer Battle?'

Answer: It's very difficult to say whether we're winning the battle against breast cancer. First of all, "battle" is probably not the best word to use. We're making some progress in breast cancer. I'm of a mind, though, that we're stuck in a rut and we're making changes in what we do; we're making it slightly better in terms of chemo, radiation, and surgery. I think what we need are some really big breakthroughs that will help us prevent cancer once and for all.
