Adjuvant Therapies and Markers of Post-Surgical Minimal Residual Disease I Markers and General Problems of Cancer Adjuvant Therapies

P. Denoix and G. Mathe Approximately 70% of cancer patients relapse after surgery before the 5th year and, in most cases, for example in breast carcinoma, they relapse still later up to the 20th year. For some considerable time, the strategy of cancer treatment has been limited to the sophistication...
