The Best Treatment: Your guide to breast cancer treatment in England and Wales


Best Treatment Guide

The guide sets out how early breast cancer should be diagnosed and treated based on the latest available evidence. This updated edition contains new information on the latest drugs and procedures.

 It combines:

  • Research and recommendations from professional national guidelines
  • Waiting time standards in England and Wales
  • And the experience of women with breast cancer

You can see what kinds of treatment options are available and what other women have thought of these in practice. The guide has been widely welcomed by women with breast cancer and people who work in the NHS.

New for Spring 2009! This updated edition contains new information for those with early stage breast cancer, as well as information on the latest drugs and procedures. Download an advance edition now.

The booklet is currently being updated to reflect new National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines for the treatment of early breast cancer issued in February 2009 and will be available as soon as possible.  Please see the NICE website for further information on these new guidelines in the meantime.
