141 Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors for survival after locoregional recurrence in patients who underwent mastectomy or breast-conserving therapy (BCT) for primary breast cancer in our hospital. Methods: Out of 3,332 patients operated on from 1989 to 2008, 50 patients had chest wall recurrences after mastectomy (CWR), 40 patients had regional nodal recurrences (RNR), and 24 patients had ipsilateral breast tumor recurrences (IBTR) from 1997 to 2008. To investigate the prognostic factors for survival after locoregional recurrence, we conducted uni- and multivariate analyses of these cases. Results: The median follow-up time was 49.2 months. The 5-year survivals after recurrence of the patients with CWR, RNR and IBRT were 52%, 28%, and 68%, respectively. And the 10-year survivals were 15%, 0%, and 62%, respectively. Furthermore, the 5-year distant metastasis-free survivals were 24%, 13%, and 59%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis of the patients with CWR, type of recurrent nodules (diffuse/single, RR 21.0, p= 0.001), pT (T3 or 4 /T1, RR 11.4, p=0.01), pN (N3/N0, RR 15.5, p= 0.03), Ki67 of primary tumor (>50%/<20%, RR6.7, p=0.02) and ER of the primary tumor (+ / -, RR 2.6, p = 0.02) were independent prognostic factors. In a multivariate analysis of RNR, the method of first line salvage therapy (local /local + systemic, RR 16.1, p = 0.01) was only an independent prognostic factor. In the cases of IBTR, there were no independent prognostic factors for survival after recurrence. Conclusions: Although CWR developed distant metastases within 5 years, the survival depended upon the several biological factors. RNR developed distant metastases within a few years and provided poor prognosis. These suggested that RNR would be the first appearance of systemic metastasis not local disease. In contrast, IBTR provided better prognosis and a salvage treatment cured about 60% of the patients.

Abstract Purpose To extend the functionality of the existing INFLUENCE nomogram for locoregional recurrence (LRR) of breast cancer toward the prediction of secondary primary tumors (SP) and distant metastases (DM) using updated follow-up data and the best suitable statistical approaches. Methods Data on women diagnosed with non-metastatic invasive breast cancer were derived from the Netherlands Cancer Registry (n = 13,494). To provide flexible time-dependent individual risk predictions for LRR, SP, and DM, three statistical approaches were assessed; a Cox proportional hazard approach (COX), a parametric spline approach (PAR), and a random survival forest (RSF). These approaches were evaluated on their discrimination using the Area Under the Curve (AUC) statistic and on calibration using the Integrated Calibration Index (ICI). To correct for optimism, the performance measures were assessed by drawing 200 bootstrap samples. Results Age, tumor grade, pT, pN, multifocality, type of surgery, hormonal receptor status, HER2-status, and adjuvant therapy were included as predictors. While all three approaches showed adequate calibration, the RSF approach offers the best optimism-corrected 5-year AUC for LRR (0.75, 95%CI: 0.74–0.76) and SP (0.67, 95%CI: 0.65–0.68). For the prediction of DM, all three approaches showed equivalent discrimination (5-year AUC: 0.77–0.78), while COX seems to have an advantage concerning calibration (ICI < 0.01). Finally, an online calculator of INFLUENCE 2.0 was created. Conclusions INFLUENCE 2.0 is a flexible model to predict time-dependent individual risks of LRR, SP and DM at a 5-year scale; it can support clinical decision-making regarding personalized follow-up strategies for curatively treated non-metastatic breast cancer patients.

1084 Background: Black women diagnosed with breast cancer are more likely to have a poor prognosis, regardless of breast cancer subtype. Despite having a lower incidence rate of breast cancer when compared to white women, black women have the highest breast cancer death rate of all racial and ethnic groups, a characteristic often attributed to late stage at diagnosis. Distant metastases are considered the leading cause of death from breast cancer. We performed a follow up study of women with breast cancer in the Mount Sinai Health System (MSHS) to determine differences in distant metastases rates among black versus white women. Methods: Women were initially recruited as part of an NIH funded cross-sectional study from 2013-2020 to examine the link between insulin resistance (IR) and breast cancer prognosis. Women self-identified as black or white race. Data was collected via retrospective analysis of electronic medical records (EMR) between September 2020-January 2021. Distant metastases at diagnosis was defined as evidence of metastases in a secondary organ (not lymph node). Stage at diagnosis was recorded for all patients. Distant metastases after diagnosis was defined as evidence of metastases at any time after initiation of treatment. Univariate analysis was performed using Fisher’s exact test, multivariate analysis was performed by binary logistic regression, and results expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: We identified 441 women enrolled in the IR study within the MSHS (340 white women, 101 black women). Median follow up time for all women was 2.95 years (median = 3.12 years for white and 2.51 years for black women (p=0.017)). Among these patients, 11 developed distant metastases after diagnosis: 4 (1.2%) white and 7 (6.9%) black (p=0.004). Multivariate analysis adjusting for age, race and stage at diagnosis revealed that black women were more likely to have distant metastasis (OR 5.8, CI 1.3-25.2), as were younger women (OR for age (years) 0.9, CI 0.9-1.0), and those with more advanced stage at diagnosis. Conclusions: Black women demonstrated a far higher percentage of distant metastases after diagnosis even when accounting for age and stage. These findings suggest that racial disparities still exist in the development of distant metastases, independent from a late-stage diagnosis. The source of existing disparities needs to be further understood and may be found in surveillance, treatment differences, or follow up.

Abstract Purpose: It is important to continually reevaluate the risk/benefit calculus of internal mammary node irradiation (IMNI) in the era of modern systemic therapy. We aimed to investigate the effect of IMNI on survival in node-positive breast cancer treated with mastectomy and anthracycline plus taxane-based chemotherapy.Methods and Materials: We analyzed 348 patients who underwent mastectomy and anthracycline plus taxane-based chemotherapy for node-positive breast cancer between January 2006 and December 2011. All patients received adjuvant radiotherapy with IMNI (n = 105, 30.2%) or without IMNI (n = 243, 69.8%). The benefit of IMNI for disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) was evaluated using multivariate analysis and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) to adjust for unbalanced covariates between the groups.Results: After a median follow-up of 95 months, the 10-year locoregional recurrence-free survival rate, DFS, and OS in all patients were 94.8%, 77.4%, and 86.2%, respectively. The IPTW-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for the association of IMNI (vs. no IMNI) with DFS and OS was 0.208 (95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.045–0.966) and 0.460 (95% CI, 0.220-0.962). In multivariate analysis, IMNI was a favorable factor for DFS (HR, 0.458; p = 0.021) and OS (HR 0.233, p = 0.018).Conclusions: IMNI was associated with improved DFS and OS in node-positive patients treated with mastectomy, post-mastectomy radiation therapy, and taxane-based chemotherapy, although the rate of locoregional recurrence was low.

112 Background: Triple-negative (basal) and HER2+ subtypes have been associated with increased risk of locoregional recurrence (LRR) in earlier studies of breast-conserving therapy (BCT), in which fewer patients received systemic therapy compared with recent standards, including HER2-targeted therapy. We analyzed whether basal and HER2+ subtypes are independent prognostic factors for LRR in BCT patients treated with modern systemic therapy. Methods: We retrospectively studied 415 patients with invasive breast cancer who received BCT from 1992 to 2009. Axillary surgery was done in 404 patients (97%). Forty eight percent of patients received chemotherapy (anthracycline/taxane 34%, trastuzumab-containing 4%, other 10%). Hormone therapy was given in 67%. Progression-free survival (PFS) and OS were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Rate of LRR was estimated by the method of cumulative incidence allowing for competing risks. The effect of prognostic factors was examined by Fine and Gray’s test. Results: Median follow-up was 60 months. Median age was 54 (26–86). Stage: T1 70%, T2 26.3%, T3 8%; N0 75%, N1 23.5%, N2 1.7%. Receptor status was available in 301 patients to approximate subtypes: 66% Luminal A, 9% Luminal B, and 5% HER2+, and 20% Basal. Overall, there were 11 LRR, 15 distant metastasis, and 20 deaths. The 10-year PFS and OS were 85.4% and 90.5%, respectively. The 5 and 10-year cumulative incidence of LRR were 2.8% (95%CI: 1.4–5.2) and 4.5% (95%CI: 2.2–8.2) respectively. On univariate analysis, Basal vs. Luminal A (HR: 9.12, p<0.001) and tumor size >2cm vs. ≤2cm (HR: 4.00, p=0.022) were significant prognostic factors for LRR as first failure. On multivariate analysis, only basal subtype (HR: 6.29, p=0.011) retained significance; others effects, including luminal B/HER2 combined subtypes, were not significant. Conclusions: Long-term clinical outcomes were excellent in this cohort of breast cancer patients treated with BCT and modern systemic therapy, with 10-year LRR 4.5% and OS 90.5%. Basal subtype was an independent predictor for LRR. Conversely, HER2+ subtype was not associated with increase in LRR, in this cohort treated with BCT and trastuzumab.

21163 Background: Breast cancer is the most common tumor arising in Uruguaian women accounting for 1,930 patients/year (adjusted incidence ratio 83.1/100,000) with 637 death/year (adjusted mortality ratio 24.1/100,000). Both incidence and mortality rank Uruguay at the top of the latinamerican countries ( IARC-GloboCan 2002). We are presenting our final results with 1,906 patients followed during a 21 year period in the biggest private Institution in our country (CENDIMA) and probably amongst all other latin-american countries. Methods: Although this study was initially designed to find a relationship between prognostic factors and survival parameters: OS (overall survival) and DFS (disease free survival) it also describes the epidemiological features of a big breast cancer population in the top ranked country for breast cancer incidence and mortality in Latin America. Statistical analysis was calculated with SPSS (11.0 version) and SAS (6.0 version) programs. OS and DFS results were obtained through Kaplan Meier method. Log rank test was implemented for univariate analysis and Cox proportional hazard rates were used for multivariate analysis. Results: The median age at diagnosis was 61.0 (SD 13.5). Ductal infiltrating carcinoma (DIC) accounted for more than 80% of patients and 56% were node negative (N0) patients at diagnosis. Stratification was: Stage 0: 8.6%, Stage I: 31.5%, Stage II: 41.8%, Stage III: 16.6%, Stage IV: 1.5%. For OS, the axillary status and hystologic grade showed the highest relative ratio (RR) value: 2.49 and 2.40. The nodal status was the main prognostic factor related to DFS with a 2.2 RR. The five and ten year survival rate was: 0.96 and 0.92 (stage I), 0.84 and 0.71 (stage II), 0.71 and 0.56 (stage III) and 0.39 and 0.29 (stage IV) respectively. Conclusions: This is the final analysis of our population in Uruguay representing the biggest report in breast pathology in a latin-american country with a long follow up period (more than 20 years). Our “good” survival results may reflect the initially low risk population at diagnosis (56% node negative, 40.1% stage 0-I ). Nodal status, histologic grade and staging at diagnosis were independent prognostic factors in univariate and multivariate analysis. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Purpose To determine whether breast cancer subtype is associated with outcome after breast-conserving therapy (BCT) consisting of lumpectomy and radiation therapy. Patients and Methods We studied 793 consecutive patients with invasive breast cancer who received BCT from July 1998 to December 2001. Among them, 97% had pathologically negative margins of resection, and 90% received adjuvant systemic therapy. No patient received adjuvant trastuzumab. Receptor status was used to approximate subtype: estrogen receptor (ER) or progesterone receptor (PR) positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative = luminal A; ER+ or PR+ and HER-2+ = luminal B; ER–and PR –and HER-2+ = HER-2; and ER–and PR –and HER-2–= basal. Competing risks methodology was used to analyze time to local recurrence and distant metastases. Results Median follow-up was 70 months. The overall 5-year cumulative incidence of local recurrence was 1.8% (95% CI, 1.0 to 3.1); 0.8% (0.3, 2.2) for luminal A, 1.5% (0.2, 10) for luminal B, 8.4% (2.2, 30) for HER-2, and 7.1% (3.0, 16) for basal. On multivariable analysis (MVA) with luminal A as baseline, HER-2 (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR] = 9.2; 95% CI, 1.6 to 51; P = .012) and basal (AHR = 7.1; 95% CI, 1.6 to 31; P = .009) subtypes were associated with increased local recurrence. On MVA, luminal B (AHR = 2.9; 95% CI, 1.3 to 6.5; P = .007) and basal (AHR = 2.3; 95% CI, 1.1 to 5.2; P = .035) were associated with increased distant metastases. Conclusion Overall, the 5-year local recurrence rate after BCT was low, but varied by subtype as approximated using ER, PR, and HER-2 status. Local recurrence was particularly low for the luminal A subtype, but was less than 10% at 5 years for all subtypes. Although further follow-up is needed, these results may be useful in counseling patients about their anticipated outcome after BCT.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents 3% of overall malignant neoplasms in adults. However, its aetiology has not been clearly established. Although surgery represents the cornerstone in treatment, recurrence postoperative rates are around 20-30%, what implies prognostic factors search must be mandatory in order to help to plan de follow-up and the different adjuvant therapy possibilities available in case they were necessary. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective observational study was carried out in 110 patients who underwent radical nephrectomy between 2004 and 2018, with the aim of identifying possible prognostic factors of recurrence of RCC after these surgeries. Preoperative data (epidemiological, comorbidities and laboratory tests), surgical, pathological and variables related to follow-up were taken into account. A univariate and multivariate analysis were performed, using chi-square test and logistic regression, respectively. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 53.5 months (SD = 35.8), time in which 19 patients had a recurrence of RCC after radical nephrectomy (17.2%). Histopathological items such as the surgical piece size, the nodal and microvascular invasion, the renal sinus invasion and the presence of necrosis in the surgical piece were associated with RCC recurrence in the univariate analysis, while only the presence of necrosis in the surgical piece showed a significant result in the multivariate analysis (p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Histopathological analysis, highlighting the presence of necrosis in the histological sample, was proved to be the main risk factor of RCC recurrence.

Abstract Background The role of surgery for the primary tumor in breast cancer patients with bone metastases (BM) remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of surgery for the primary tumor in breast cancer patients with BM and to develop prognostic nomograms to predict the overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients with BM. Methods A total of 3956 breast cancer patients with BM from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database between 2010 and 2016 were included. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to eliminate the bias between the surgery and non-surgery groups. The Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test were performed to compare the OS between two groups. Cox proportional risk regression models were used to identify independent prognostic factors. Two nomograms were constructed for predicting the OS of patients in the surgery and non-surgery groups, respectively. In addition, calibration curve, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the performance of nomograms. Result The survival analysis showed that the surgery of the primary tumor significantly improved the OS for breast cancer patients with BM. Based on independent prognostic factors, separate nomograms were constructed for the surgery and non-surgery groups. The calibration and ROC curves of these nomograms indicated that both two models have high predictive accuracy, with the area under the curve values ≥0.700 on both the training and validation cohorts. Moreover, DCA showed that nomograms have strong clinical utility. Based on the results of the X-tile analysis, all patients were classified in the low-risk-of-death subgroup had a better prognosis. Conclusion The surgery of the primary tumor may provide survival benefits for breast cancer patients with BM. Furthermore, these prognostic nomograms we constructed may be used as a tool to accurately assess the long-term prognosis of patients and help clinicians to develop individualized treatment strategies.
