Abstract
Purpose To update the recommendations for the use of tumor marker tests in the prevention, screening, treatment, and surveillance of breast cancer. Methods For the 2007 update, an Update Committee composed of members from the full Panel was formed to complete the review and analysis of data published since 1999. Computerized literature searches of MEDLINE and the Cochrane Collaboration Library were performed. The Update Committee’s literature review focused attention on available systematic reviews and metaanalyses of published tumor marker studies. In general, significant health outcomes (overall survival, disease-free survival, quality of life, lesser toxicity, and cost-effectiveness) were used for making recommendations. Recommendations and Conclusions
