Circulating tumour cells are associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism in metastatic breast cancer patients

BACKGROUND: Cancer is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are an independent predictor of survival in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that CTCs are associated with the risk of VTE in MBC patients. M...
