Coffee is associated with lower breast tumor insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 levels in normal-weight patients and improved prognosis following tamoxifen or radiotherapy treatment
Coffee is associated with decreased breast cancer risk, but the impact of body mass index (BMI) in combination with coffee consumption on prognosis is unclear. The suppressive effect of coffee constituents on the insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGF1R) levels in breast cancer cells may play a role. The aim was to investigate the prognostic impact of coffee consumption and possible associatio
