About Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Triple-negative breast cancer is an aggressive form of invasive breast cancer that tends to grow and spread faster, has fewer treatment options, and often has a poorer prognosis.

The term triple negative means that the cancer cells do not have estrogen or progesterone receptors and do not produce any or much of the HER2 protein.

Approximately 10% to 15% of breast cancers are triple negative and are usually found in women who are under 40, black, and have a BRCA1 mutation.
