INTRODUCTION
• The breast plays and important role in the
female body.
• It is an organ where breast milk is produced
• The major organelles involved in the production
of breast milk are the lobules and ducts
• Another important structure which plays a role is
the axilla
ANATOMY OF THE BREAST
INTRODUCTION CONT’D
• Breast cancer is a disease whereby the cells
found in the breast begin to divide uncontrollably.
• It can occur in the ducts or lobules or within the
accessory organelles within the breast
• Breast cancer has become a thing of worry due to
its increasing prevalence.
• Breast Cancer occurs due to the interplay
between genetic and environmental factors.
TYPES OF BREAST CANCER

or Insitu BC

Others
• Ductal carcinoma insitu
• Lobular cancer insitu

• Triple negative breast cancer are associated with BRCA-1

EPIDEMOLOGY
2M
Worldwide have
breast cancer
5TH
GLOBOCAN in 2020
identified breast cancer to
be the 5th cause of cancer
related deaths.
EPIDEMOLOGY
• Breast cancer is prevalent in patients > 50
years
• The GLOBOCAN Study showed that an
incidence rate of approximately 88% in
Transitioning countries compared to western
countries.
• In Nigeria it is the number one cause of
female cancer related deaths with 14,274 in
2020.
RISK FACTORS (NON MODIFIABLE )
 Female sex
 Older age
 Family history of breast
or ovarian cancer
 Genetic mutations
 Density of Breast
tissue
 Early Menarche
 Late menopause
 Previous history of
breast cancer
 Previous radiation
therapy
 race/ethnicity
RISK FACTORS (MODIFIABLE)
● Overweight/obesity
● Nulliparity
● Nil Breast-feeding
● Hormonal Drugs
● Alcohol intake
● Smoking
● Exposure to carcinogens
through processed foods

RADIOTHERAPY
PHARMACOTHERAPY
•Improve life expectancy
•Reduce drug related toxicity
•Improve patients’ quality of life
•Delay progression of disease
•Optimize pain management
•Manage drug related side effects
GOALS OF THERAPY
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF
BREAST CANCER
● Surgery remains the main stay for treatment of
Breast cancer
● It is divided into lumpectomy, partial
mastectomy and total mastectomy
● Surgery is usually accompanied by
neoadjuvant therapy or adjuvant therapy which
may be hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, and
radiotherapy.
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF BC
Lumpectomy
• Higher rate of
recurrence
• It is limited by
multicentric
tumors and
large tumuors
Lumpectomy +
Radiation
• Has a lesser
rate of
recurrence
• Most useful in
Dcis/Tis
• i.e. stage 2 B
Mastectomy
• It is used for
advanced
stage of the
disease
t2>5cm
• for
multicentric,
multinodular
breast cancer
• It can be used
prophylactical
ly
RADIATION THERAPY OF BREAST
CANCER
● It is aimed at eradicating local subclinical
residual disease
● It reduces recurrence rates by 75%
● There are two general approaches used to
deliver radiation therapy
● Whole breast radiotherapy
● Partial breast irradiation
● Indicated for patients ≥ 45years
○ Dcis
○ T ≤3cm
CLASSES OF DRUGS USED TO
TREAT BREAST CANCER

• Alkylating agents
• Antimytotic drugs
• Anthracycline
• Vinca alkaloids
• Taxanes
• Platinum

CONCLUSION
The mortality Toll of Breast Cancer keeps rising.
Breast cancer is a multi disciplinary approach
provides the best care for the patient. Clinical
pharmacists should equip themselves with more
knowledge and participate in educating our patients
as well as contributing in ensuring responsible and
adequate therapy in their care.
