Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) now represents 25% of all screen-detected so called ‘breast cancers’. Yet, most DCIS lesions will never progress to breast cancer. Uncertainty as to which DCIS lesions may progress drives massive overtreatment of this often harmless disease. This lecture will discuss how we unravel DCIS biology, identify biomarkers for DCIS progression risk, and perform clinical research, aiming to prevent the burden of invasive but needless treatment of women diagnosed with harmless DCIS.
