I want to know about Triple-negative breast cancer as our doctor hinted that my aunt has signs of this specific type of breast cancer.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 26th May '21
The term triple-negative breast cancer means that the cancer cells do not have estrogen or progesterone receptors and does not make too much of the protein called HER2. ( therefore the cells test "negative" on all 3 tests.)
Triple-negative breast cancer has less treatment options available than other types of invasive breast cancer. The reason being the cancer cells do not have enough estrogen or progesterone receptors or HER2 protein for hormone therapy or targeted drugs to work.
Treatment options are chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery mainly. But consulting clinician on time and starting the treatment is important. Regular follow up with doctor with lifestyle modifications and counselling will help. Consult an oncologist.
Hope our answer helps you.

Hello Nirendra!
The doctor will require your wife's Final Histopath Report and Ultra Sonography report to determine if any further treatment is required.

My elder sister aged 54 years is suffering from STOMACH CANCER. Endoscopy, CT Scan and PET Scan tests have confirmed 4th stage of cancer, as informed by the specialist doctor. To start with 3 cycles of Chemotherapy has been advised and started. The Chemotherapy treatment drug administered is M-FLOT. She has undergone 2 cycles of Chemotherapy from 30.4.19. The 3rd Chemotherapy is scheduled for 30.5.19. Around 15.6.19, one more PET Scan is advised to determine the effect of the 3 chemotherapies administered to her. Going by the test report, future course of treatment would be decided. Pls advise if we are on the right track to get the best treatment for my sister to get well soon. We are ready to do whatever to get the best possible treatment. Kindly advise.
