A Multigene Assay to Predict Recurrence of Tamoxifen-Treated, Node-Negative Breast Cancer [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Over the past two decades, the molecular dissection of cancer has increased our understanding of the pathways that are altered in neoplastic cells.1,2 Nevertheless, the diagnosis of cancer and decisions about its treatment still rely largely on classic histopathological and immunohistochemical techniques. A more quantitative approach to diagnosis and rational individualization of treatment are needed. Large clinical trials, such as National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) trials B-14 and B-20, have demonstrated the benefit of tamoxifen and chemotherapy in women who have node-negative, estrogen-receptor–positive breast cancer.3–5 However, since the likelihood of distant recurrence in patients treated . . .
