Metastatic Breast Cancer Treatment Options
Treatment options for metastasis are determined based on your individual case and often focus on relieving symptoms.
Depending on the type and extent of the metastases, systemic therapies—such as chemotherapy and hormonal therapy—can be effective in controlling breast cancer metastases. Regardless of where the cancer is now, it is still breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
Breast cancer metastasis can occur in nearly any part of the body, although the most common sites are bone, lung and liver—in that order. Learn more about treatment options for different parts of the body in this section.
