Does nonmetastatic inflammatory breast cancer have a worse prognosis than other nonmetastatic T4 cancers?

Abstract

Although IFLBC is often considered a unique biologic subtype, patients with IFLBC and patients with non-IFLBC had similar outcomes with modern multimodality therapy; isolated LRR was uncommon. The TN subtype in patients with IFLBC is associated with poor outcomes, and this indicates the need for new treatment approaches in this group.
