Abstract
Accrual in this study was mainly hampered by patient's refusal or preference for a particular type of treatment, and an overall condition considered as too fit or too frail for inclusion. Future trials in elderly metastatic breast cancer patients should focus on non-restrictive inclusion criteria as well as on education of physicians and elderly patients on the advantages of trial participation.
