Scientists have unlocked the secrets of the potentially deadly spread of breast cancer to the bone in a breakthrough that could save thousands of lives a year.
The disease branches out to the bone in up to 80 per cent of cases advanced breast cancer and current treatments are mainly limited to relieving symptoms and extending the amount of time a woman has left with her family.
A drug that stops the cancer ever reaching the bone greatly would greatly improve the treatment of the disease that claims 1,000 lives a year in the UK alone.
