Where you live may be fueling aggressive breast cancer

New research shows that women living near Superfund sites are more likely to develop aggressive and metastatic breast cancers. The studies found higher risks for hard-to-treat subtypes like triple-negative breast cancer, especially in areas with greater air pollution. Scientists also discovered molecular tumor changes linked to neighborhood deprivation. The findings point to environmental exposure and social conditions as key factors shaping cancer outcomes.
