The 21-gene Recurrence Score (RS) assay is a validated prognostic/predictive tool in early hormone receptor-positive breast cancer (BC); however, only few prospective outcome results have been available so far. In the phase III PlanB trial, RS was prospectively used to define subset of patients who received endocrine therapy. We present 3-year data and concordance analysis (among biomarkers/RS).Central tumor bank established from (intermediate high-risk, locally human epidermal growth factor...

Neoadjuvant systemic treatment (NST) elicits a pathologic complete response in 40%-70% of women with breast cancer. These patients may not need surgery as all local tumor has already been eradicated by NST. However, nonsurgical approaches, including imaging or vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB), were able to accurately identify without residual cancer the axilla. We evaluated feasibility machine learning algorithm (intelligent VAB) exceptional responders NST.We trained, tested, and validated using...

Abstract Background Efficacy and quality of life (QoL) are key criteria for therapy selection in metastatic breast cancer (MBC). In hormone receptor positive (HR +) human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2 −) MBC, addition targeted oral agents such as everolimus or a cycline-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitor (e.g., palbociclib, ribociclib, abemaciclib) to endocrine substantially prolongs progression-free survival the case CDK 4/6i also overall survival. However, prerequisite is...

Abstract Background: Both the Recurrence Score® (RS) multi-gene assay and invasion factors uPA/PAI-1 are recommended by guidelines (ASCO, AGO) for decision support regarding adjuvant chemotherapy (cht) in patients with early breast cancer (BC). In EC-DOC trial, we previously suggested central grade 3 high Ki-67 levels as independent predictive markers enhanced benefit of taxane-based cht intermediate risk BC. Here, present final WSG-Plan B trial correlation analysis these assessment tools....

Abstract Background Breast cancer patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant systemic treatment (NAST) have a worse prognosis compared those achieving pathologic complete response (pCR). Earlier identification of these might allow timely, extended strategies. We explored the feasibility vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB) NAST to identify (ypT+ or ypN+) prior surgery. Methods used data from multicenter trial, collected at 21 study sites (NCT02948764). The trial included women cT1-3, cN0/+...

Molecular factors that drive metastasis in premenopausal patients with hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2−), early breast cancer (EBC) are largely unknown. To identify markers/signatures contributing to metastasis, we analyzed molecular changes tumors from who developed (M1) and did not (M0). Ninety-seven HR+/HER2− EBC were included (M1, n = 48, median distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS): 54 (7–184) months; M0, 49, follow-up: 149 (121–191)...
