ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Partial-breast irradiation (PBI) has been performed as alternative to whole-breast irradiation (WBI) in breast-conserving therapy (BCT). Recently, the 21-gene recurrence score (RS) was introduced to determine the adjuvant therapy for estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative diseases. However, the impact of RS-based systemic therapy on locoregional recurrence (LRR) following BCT with PBI remains uninvestigated. METHODS AND MATERIALS Patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, and node-negative breast cancer who underwent BCT with PBI were examined during May 2012-March 2022. In addition to immunohistochemistry (IHC), RS was available to decide on adjuvant therapy.RESULTS:
In total, 431 patients were evaluated with a median followup of 48.6 months. The 4-year LRR-free survival rates were 97.3% and 96.4% in the IHC and RS cohorts, respectively (p = 0.50). Ki67 of >20% was significantly associated with LRR in the multivariate analysis (HR 4.39, p < 0.05). For patients with Ki67 > 20%, 29 of 71 (40.8%) and 46 of 59 (78.0%) patients received only endocrine therapy in the IHC and RS cohorts, respectively (p < 0.0001). For patients with Ki67 >20% who received only endocrine therapy, the 4-year LRR-free survival rates were 91.8% in the IHC cohort and 94.6% in the RS cohort (p = 0.29)CONCLUSIONS:
Although the introduction of RS increased the number of patients receiving endocrine therapy alone for Ki67 >20% of disease by two times, the LRR-free survival after BCT with PBI could be maintained. However, further studies from multiple institutions with longer followup data are required.Palavras-chave
