Most women will be treated with some type of drug therapy, and new drugs and combinations of drugs are continually coming into use. Learn about the current treatment options and new emerging treatments on the horizon. Medical Oncologist, Dr Belinda Yeo practises at the Austin Hospital, and at Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute as a Clinician Scientist with a specific interest in breast cancer.
