Abstract

To the Editor: Breast cancer remains the commonest cause of cancer for females in Australia and worldwide. Median age at presentation in Australia is 61 years of age. One in four patients are aged over 70 years 1. With a growing elderly population and newer chemotherapy options available for the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer, little is known of the tolerability and feasibility.
