“reast cancer tissue is assessed at diagnosis to determine treatment approach and prognosis. Whilst stage 4 or metastatic breast cancer is classed as incurable, treatment options that can prolong life are becoming available. However, we need to ensure that diagnostic technology used in labs keeps pace with advances in treatment, so that those with this late-stage cancer can access these innovative therapies.

What is stage 4 breast cancer?

Stage 4 breast cancer is also known as metastatic breast cancer, secondary breast cancer or advanced breast cancer.

All these terms cover cases where the cancer has metastasized from the breast to other regions of the body. Most commonly the lymph nodes, bone, liver, lungs and brain. Signs of metastatic breast cancer depend on the site of spread.

How common is stage 4 breast cancer?

In terms of stage 4 breast cancer rates, the charity Breast Cancer Now states that around 35,000 people are living with this advanced diagnosis in the UK. Approximately 5% of women are diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer at the start of their treatment journey.

Unfortunately, once the cancer has metastasized it is incurable: in Europe the 5-year survival rate is in the range of 38% (ESMO, 2021). As of 2018, metastatic breast cancer was the leading cause of death from all cancers in women, accounting for 3.6% of all deaths..

That is why it’s vital that there is a focus on better treatments as well as improved diagnostic pathways to enhance outcomes.”
