In the largest study to date evaluating MBC, practice patterns of surgery, systemic therapy, and RT are described. The addition of RT in the post-lumpectomy setting was associated with higher OS, in addition to pT3-4/N+ in the post-mastectomy setting. Although not implying causation, further work is required to corroborate the conclusions herein.
