Early-stage

Most people who are diagnosed with breast cancer are diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. Breast cancer is considered early-stage if it has not traveled beyond the breast or nearby lymph nodes. Early-stage breast cancers include ductal carcinoma in situ, stage I, stage IIA, stage IIB and stage IIIA breast cancers.

 

Treatments for early-stage breast cancer aim to destroy cancer cells and stop them from returning or spreading to other parts of the body.
