Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for about 10-15% of all breast cancers. Dr. Regina Hampton, a board-certified general surgeon with a focus on breast health and breast cancer in the DC Metro area, explains why TNBC differs from other types of invasive breast cancer, why it has fewer treatment options, and why it tends to have a worse outcome when compared with other early-stage breast cancers. Dr. Hampton also sheds light on the recurrence rate and what percentage of TNBC patients become metastatic. Everyone can benefit from attending this eye-opening webinar, especially Black women.
