Addressing Side Effects Early Can Help Patients Adhere to Breast Cancer Treatment In a recent paper, Rollins researchers studied the differences in adjuvant endocrine therapy symptoms between Black and white women and how symptoms affected adherence to treatment.

Congrats Dr. Jingxuan Zhao on leading this important and timely study. The findings highlight the urgent need for policies that expand insurance coverage and improve access to life-saving treatments.
