The latest scientific, medical and healthcare advances in Systemic Breast Cancer Therapy, compiled in a comprehensive, high-performance postgraduate certificate”

Since the 1960s, when this Systemic Therapy, then based on cytotoxic drugs, has been in clinical use and adjusted to the difficult balance between toxicity and efficacy, systemic therapy has evolved towards specificity thanks to the knowledge of the intrinsic nature of breast cancer. Such effective weapons as hormone therapy, molecular therapies or targets and immunotherapy are introduced.

The goal of systemic therapy remains to reduce locoregional disease to allow complete resection or resection-sterilization of locoregional disease but, above all, to eliminate every last residual, cantoned or circulating cell. 

Today, we know that the essential characteristic of breast cancer and cancer is its heterogeneity. It is certain that, except in exceptional cases, we will not find a molecular or simply therapeutic target that will eliminate advanced oncological disease; in early stages and in common cases, the frequency of this cancer allows it to be treated with great success empirically, with protocolized therapeutic lines. In advanced disease, even non-metastatic, and in situations of poor response to empirical treatment, the clinical trial is chosen, where conceptually effective drugs, with a correct creation methodology, offer the patient an opportunity in the last phases of the clinical and pharmacological adjustment of a pharmaceutical product. But also, the attempt of exhaustive molecular knowledge of the tumor and occasionally of the patient, by means of mutational and gene expression studies, aims to find a systemic therapy tailored to solve the situation, this would be the so-called n1 trial or one patient trial.

Both philosophies must, in the coming years, be coupled, but today they already teach us that the solution will be, for the time being, combined, with the joint action of effective chemotherapy, target drugs and immunotherapy. Knowledge of this therapeutic arsenal, its pharmacology, toxicity and cost-effectiveness, is essential for a specialist in Mastology.

Postgraduate Certificate in Systemic Therapy of Breast Cancer

One of the most severe pathologies that can affect a woman is breast cancer, a condition that causes serious damage by transforming normal breast cells into cancerous ones. According to PAHO (Pan American Health Organization), currently in Latin America and the Caribbean, this disease is the most common among women and is the second most deadly. As it is a dangerous condition that deteriorates both the physical and emotional state of the patient, numerous scientific advances have arisen that contribute to provide an integral balance in the health of each person. Among these medical novelties is the systemic procedure, a discipline specialized in integrating drugs that help eliminate cancerous cells from the body into the oncological treatment. With the motivation to provide professionals with the necessary tools to include this technique in their daily clinical practice, TECH designed a Postgraduate Certificate in Systemic Breast Cancer Therapy focused on covering the latest techniques in this area. The agenda of this program was designed through a high scientific and educational rigor, because of this, students will address key issues such as the proper management of immunotherapy and molecular targets, or hormonal treatment that complements the rehabilitative process of each patient.

Be an expert in applying systemic treatments.

At TECH Global University we offer you the best methodology in the educational industry, you will complement your study plan with multimedia graphic content that instructs the practical understanding of these topics. By taking this 150-hour Postgraduate Certificate program, you will obtain the knowledge, competencies and skills necessary to apply this specialty in your regular clinical practice. Through online classes, distributed in dynamic modules, you will delve into the discipline of mastology, cell cycle, oncogenesis and pharmacogenomics related to this tumor disease. You will also specialize in performing mutational and gene expression studies that facilitate the coupling of a systemic treatment, which must include a therapeutic arsenal and a pharmacological extension. In this way, you will learn to properly apply the different molecular techniques and immunotherapeutic support alternatives, in order to carry out a detailed approach to chemotherapy and its advances in each specific clinical case.
