Breast cancer (BC) ranks first in the morbidity pattern among women in Russia. Adjuvant endocrinotherapy is an important step in the complex treatment of premenopausal patients with hormone-positive early breast cancer. The drug ovarian suppression with GnRH-agonists have supplanted surgical castration and radiation-based treatment of the ovaries in patients with hormone-positive early breast cancer. Today, several drugs authorised for the treatment of breast cancer are used in clinical practice: goserelin, buserelin and triptorelin. Buserelin-depo is an effective method for achieving ovarian suppression. The results obtained do not differ from similar indicators obtained in using imported LHRH analogues.

The addition of adjuvant chemotherapy to hormonal therapy is often considered questionable in patients with estrogen receptor-positive early breast cancer. Low risk of disease relapse after endocrine treatment alone and/or a low sensitivity to chemotherapy are reasons behind not all patients benefit from chemotherapy. Most of the patients could be exposed to unnecessary treatment- related adverse events and health care costs when treatment decision-making is based only on classical clinical histological features. Gene expression profile has been developed to refine physician’s decision-making process and to tailor personalized treatment to patients. In particular, these tests are designed to spare patients the side effects of unnecessary treatment, and ensure that adjuvant chemotherapy is correctly recommended to patients with early breast cancer. In this review, we will discuss the main diagnostic tests and their potential clinical applications (Oncotype DX, MammaPrint, PAM50/Prosigna, EndoPredict, MapQuant Dx, IHC4, and Theros-Breast Cancer Gene Expression Ratio Assay).
