Invasive breast cancer, the most common nonskin cancer in women in the United States, will be diagnosed in 266,120 In 2018, along with 63,960 new cases of non-invasive (in situ) breast cancer. Incidence and mortality reached a plateau and appear to be dropping in both the United States and parts of western Europe. This decline has been attributed to several factors, such as early detection through the use of screening mammography and appropriate use of systemic adjuvant therapy, as well as decreased use of hormone replacement therapy. However, the global burden of breast cancer remains great, and global breast cancer incidence increased from 641,000 in 1980 to 1,643,000 in 2010, an annual rate of increase of 3.1%. This chapter examines the etiology, epidemiology, prevention, screening, staging, and prognosis of breast cancer. The diagnoses and treatments of the four stages of breast cancer are also included. Figures include algorithms used for the systemic treatment of stage IV breast cancer and hormone therapy for women with stage IV breast cancer. Tables describe selected outcomes from the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) P-1 and P-2 chemoprevention trials, tamoxifen chemoprevention trials for breast cancer, the TNM staging system and stage groupings for breast cancer, some commonly used adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, an algorithm for suggested treatment for patients with operable breast cancer from the 2011 St. Gallen consensus conference, guidelines for surveillance of asymptomatic early breast cancer survivors from the American Society of Clinical Oncology, and newer agents for metastatic breast cancer commercially available in the United States. This review contains 2 highly rendered figures, 8 tables, and 108 references.

Invasive breast cancer, the most common nonskin cancer in women in the United States, will be diagnosed in 235,000 women in this country in 2013 and is expected to result in approximately 40,000 deaths. Incidence and mortality reached a plateau and appear to be dropping in both the United States and parts of western Europe. This decline has been attributed to several factors, such as early detection through the use of screening mammography and appropriate use of systemic adjuvant therapy, as well as decreased use of hormone replacement therapy.

It is estimated that approximately 154000 women in the United States have stage IV breast cancer (BC). A subset of this group has metastatic disease at presentation, known as de novo stage IV disease. De novo stage IV BC accounts for approximately 6% of all BC diagnoses in the United States. Traditionally, stage IV BC patients are treated with primary systemic therapy with a palliative intent reserving possible locoregional treatment (LRT) as last resort. There has been a lot of interest in the role of LRT in de novo stage IV BC for the past decade with mixed conclusions. Although this review is not intended to be a comprehensive overview of all literature regarding this topic to date, we will review the recent findings in literature focusing on the studies with larger sample sizes to investigate the role of LRT in de novo stage IV BC.

Purpose Overall, breast cancer mortality has been declining in the United States, but survival studies of patients with stage IV disease are limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate trends in and factors affecting survival in a large population-based cohort of patients with newly diagnosed stage IV breast cancer. Patients and Methods We searched the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry to identify female patients with stage IV breast cancer diagnosed between 1988 and 2003. Patients were divided into three groups according to year of diagnosis (1988 to 1993, 1994 to 1998, and 1999 to 2003). Survival outcomes were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox models were fit to determine the characteristics independently associated with survival. Results We identified 15,438 patients. Median age was 62 years. Median follow-up was 16 months, 18 months, and 11 months in periods 1988 to 1993, 1994 to 1998, and 1999 to 2003, respectively. Median breast cancer–specific survival was 23 months. In the multivariate model, earlier year of diagnosis, grade 3 disease, increasing age, being unmarried, hormone receptor–negative disease, and no surgery were all independently associated with worse overall and breast cancer–specific survival. With each successive year of diagnosis, black patients had an increasingly greater risk of death compared with white patients (hazard ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.06; P = .031). Conclusion The survival of patients with newly diagnosed stage IV breast cancer has modestly improved over time, but these data suggest that the disparity in survival between black and white patients has increased.

Abstract Background Although recent findings suggest that de novo stage IV breast cancer is increasing in premenopausal women in the United States, contemporary incidence and survival data are lacking for stage I–III cancer. Methods Women aged 20–29 (n = 3826), 30–39 (n = 34 585), and 40–49 (n = 126 552) years who were diagnosed with stage I–III breast cancer from 2000 to 2015 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 18 registries database. Age-adjusted, average annual percentage changes in incidence and 5- and 10-year Kaplan-Meier survival curves were estimated by race and ethnicity, stage, and hormone receptor (HR) status and grade (low to well and moderately differentiated; high to poorly and undifferentiated) for each age decade. Results The average annual percentage change in incidence was positive for each age decade and was highest among women aged 20–29 years. Increased incidence was driven largely by HR+ cancer, particularly HR+ low-grade cancer in women aged 20–29 and 40–49 years. By 2015, incidence of HR+ low- and high-grade cancer each independently exceeded incidence of HR− cancer in each age decade. Survival for HR+ low- and high-grade cancer decreased with decreasing age; survival for HR− cancer was similar across age decades. Among all women aged 20–29 years, 10-year survival for HR+ high-grade cancer was lower than that for HR+ low-grade or HR− cancer. Among women aged 20–29 years with stage I cancer, 10-year survival was lowest for HR+ high-grade cancer. Conclusions HR+ breast cancer is increasing in incidence among premenopausal women, and HR+ high-grade cancer was associated with reduced survival among women aged 20–29 years. Our findings can help guide further evaluation of preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic strategies for breast cancer among premenopausal women.

1032 Background: Therapeutic advances have altered the course of once highly lethal HER2+ breast cancer (BC). We report survival in a recent population-based cohort by HER2 status, overall, and within hormone receptor(HR)+ BC. Methods: Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program data were queried to identify women diagnosed 2010-2012 with Stage IV BC as first cancer. Patients were grouped by HER2 and HR status. Kaplan Meier estimates of 3-yr observed survival (OS) were compared with log-rank tests. A multivariate cox model was fitted for the HER2+ cohort. Results: 3-yr OS for HER2+(any HR), HR+/HER- and triple-negative (TN) BC was 52.3%, 48.4% and 16.0% respectively (p<0.01 HER2+(any HR) vs TNBC; p=0.20 HER2+(any HR) vs HR+/HER2-). Across registries, OS for HER2+(any HR) BC ranged from 29.2% to 61.7% (p=0.05). On Cox model, survival in HER2+(any HR) BC was associated with age 50+ (Hazard ratio (HR) 1.84, 95% CI 1.45-2.34), HR+ status (HR 0.70, 0.58-0.84), high histologic grade (HR 1.30, 0.58-0.84), surgery (HR 0.40, 0.33-0.49), separated marital status (HR 1.72, 1.4-2.13), year 2012 (HR 0.81, 0.64-1.04), and registry (varies by reference group). For HR+ BC, OS also differed by HER2 status: 55.3% for HR+/HER+ and 48.4% for HR+/HER2- (p<0.01). 3-yr OS by HER2 status for women presenting with HR+ BC is shown (Table). Conclusions: Survival in de novo Stage IV HER2+ BC in the United States exceeds that in HER2- BC, with median survival >3 yrs. Survival was significantly better for HR+/HER+ BC than HR+/HER- BC. Disparate OS in HER2+ BC suggest opportunities may remain to fully realize advances in HER2-directed therapy. Given recent therapeutic advances, the trend of HER2+ survival gains from 2010 to 2012 will likely continue. [Table: see text]
