A genetic test that grades breast- cancer aggressiveness also identifies low-risk women who don&#39;t need chemotherapy, potentially sparing 50,000 each year from a toxic treatment that doesn&#39;t help them, researchers said.

A test currently available on the market can predict which breast cancer patients are at risk for their cancer to recur, which could be a vital tool for deciding if further treatment, such as chemotherapy will be useful or safely avoided.
