Summary
Today metastatic breast cancer is regarded as cureless. The treatment is palliative in intent
and the goals of treatment include improvement of quality of life and if possible
prolongation of life. Treatment in metastatic cancer will usually involve hormone therapy
and/or chemotherapy. Weekly application of chemotherapeutical drugs may lead to less drug
concentrations in healthy tissue and therefore toxicities maý be reduced.
