The Danish Breast Cancer Cooperative Group (DBCG) was established in 1977 with the aim to ensure optimal breast cancer diagnostics and therapeutic modalities on a nationwide basis. DBCG was organized in such a way so it represents a broad interdisciplinary collaboration with established clinical databases and biobanks. This review summarizes the infrastructures, such as those of the DBCG, that are required to facilitate translational research studies aiming at further diagnostic and therapeutic improvements through interactions directed at prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of primary breast cancer.
