ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The prognosis and the value of postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) between post-chemotherapy ypT1-2ypN1 and de novo pT1-2N1 breast cancer (BC) remain controversial. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic differences and the effect of PMRT between the two patient subsets.METHODS:
Patients diagnosed with pT1-2N1M0 BC were identified between 2010 and 2018. The study endpoints were overall survival (OS), breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS), locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and disease-free survival (DFS). The chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis were used for data analysis.RESULTS:
Total number of 2103 pT1-2N1M0 BC patients were included in the study, including 270 post-chemotherapy (97 without PMRT, 173 with PMRT) and 1833 de novo cases (993 without PMRT, 840 with PMRT). No significant differences were found between post-chemotherapy ypT1-2ypN1 and de novo pT1-2N1 BC patients in 5-year OS (p = 0.068), BCSS (p = 0.054), LRFS (p = 0.241), DMFS (p = 0.104) or DFS (p = 0.08). PMRT did not improve any survival outcome in patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy; however, the PMRT group had a better 5-year BCSS (97.0% vs. 95.8%, p = 0.033) in de novo pT1-2N1 BC. Cox multivariate analysis demonstrated that PMRT was a significant independent predictor of BCSS (HR 0.628; 95% CI, 0.403-0.978; p = 0.04) in de novo pT1-2N1 patients.CONCLUSIONS:
There seemed no survival difference in post-chemotherapy ypT1-2ypN1 and de novo pT1-2N1 BC patients with contemporary systemic therapy. In addition, PMRT might be exempted in patients with post-chemotherapy ypT1-2ypN1 BC, while not in patients with de novo pT1-2N1 BC.Palavras-chave
