Trial overview
Official title: Occurrence of brain metastasis in breast cancer patients diagnosed at advanced stages of the disease
Trial description: The purpose of this epidemiologic study is to establish a population-based cohort of women with advanced stage breast cancer which can be used to quantify the frequency and timing of brain metastases, and other distant metastases, in this patient population.

Allocation:
Not applicable
Primary outcomes:
Proportion of advanced stage breast cancer patients that develop brain metastases, overall and stratified by anti-HER2 therapy (for HER2+ patients only).
Timeframe: Time from breast cancer diagnosis until death or end of study periods (September 1, 2009)
Secondary outcomes: 
Overall survival from advanced stage breast cancer, overall and stratified by tumor characteristics and anti-HER2 therapy (for HER2+ patients only).
Timeframe: Time from diagnosis of advanced stage breast cancer until death or end of study period (September 1, 2009)
Time to brain metastases stratified by key tumor characteristics and anti-HER2 therapy (for HER2+ patients only).
Timeframe: Time from diagnosis of advanced stage breast cancer until brain metastases diagnosis
Survival after brain metastases diagnosis, overall and stratified by key tumor characteristics and anti-HER2 therapy (for HER2+ patients only)
Timeframe: Time from diagnosis of brain metastases until death or end of study period (September 1, 2009)
