This study retrospectively analyzed exclusive radiotherapy (ERT), surgery, and both as local regional therapies (LRT) for denovo metastatic breast cancer patients. It found that both ERT and surgery plus radiotherapy (BMT) were associated with improved overall survival compared to no LRT or surgery alone. ERT showed similar overall survival as BMT and could be an acceptable alternative to avoid invasive surgeries. However, the study had limitations as a retrospective analysis and larger prospective studies are still needed to provide stronger evidence and guidelines on the role of LRT like ERT for metastatic breast cancer.
