In September charity CoppaFeel! launched a campaign urging younger women to get to know their body to raise awareness of breast cancer after Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding, died from the disease aged 39.
"But in some women, the cancer will grow and spread to other parts of the body or come back in a different part of the body several years after the end of their initial treatment.
"At this point the cancer becomes much harder to treat and the risk of dying is higher. However, we don't really know how many people develop metastatic breast cancer because cancer registries have not been routinely collecting this data."The study, which involved a detailed review of more than 400 previous studies, set out to examine which patients are likely to go on to develop advanced breast cancer.
Those with this cancer had a 4.2% to 35.5% risk of metastasis compared to 2.3% to 11.8% risk in women diagnosed with luminal A cancer. The risk of breast cancer coming back after initial diagnosis and spreading to other organs appeared to decrease over time for women first diagnosed in the 1970s and 1980s compared to those diagnosed more recently.
