Oncotype Dx Recurrence Score

598 Background: Treatment planning for patients with node negative, ER-positive, HER-2 negative breast cancer often incorporates the use of prognostic and predictive tools like Oncotype DX. Prior to the availabilty of Oncotype DX, clinicopathologic factors such as age, nodal status, tumour size and grade were used to determine risk of recurrence (ROR). RSPC represents a validated formal integration of oncotype DX recurrence score (RS) and clinicopathologic factors that further refines prognostic accuracy. RSPC does not improve the prediction of likelihood of chemotherapy benefit. The objective of this study was to compare distant recurrence risk assessment by RS and RSPC. Methods: We included patients with node negative, ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who had Oncotype DX testing routinely or on clinical trial. We retrospectively reviewed patient charts and extracted clinicopathological and RS data. We calculated the RSPC using the RSPC educational tool. A comparative analysis was performed looking at the statification of patients into low (LR), intermediate (IR) and high (HR) ROR groups by RS and RSPC. The cut offs for low, intermediate and high risk by the RSPC were set to less than 12%, 12-20% and more than 20% risk of distant recurrence at 10yrs, corresponding to the risks of recurrence associated with the RS categories. Results: We identified 658 patients from 5 academic hospitals in Ireland and the US. Oncotype DX RS classified the following proportions of patients into three risk groups for distant recurrence: LR, n=334 (50.5%), IR, n=259 (39.4%), HR, n=67 (10.1%). RSPC classified the following proportion of patients into the three risk groups for recurrence: LR, n= 455 (69.1%), IR, n=110 (16.7%), HR, n=93 (14.1%). RSPC reclassified 72.6% (n=188) of the IR group (59.1% (n=153) from IR to LR and 13.5% (n=35) from IR to HR). RPSC reclassified 10.5% (n=35) of the LR group (8.1% (n=27) from LR to IR, and 2.4% (n=8) from LR to HR). RSPC reclassified 25.3% (n=17) of the HR group (17.9% (n=12) from HR to IR, and 7.4% (n=5) from HR to LR). Conclusions: RSPC reclassified 240 patients (36.5%) and was most helpful reassigning the IR group.

Purpose Risk of distant recurrence (DR) among women with estrogen receptor (ER) –positive early breast cancer is the major determinant of recommendations for or against chemotherapy. It is frequently estimated using the Oncotype DX recurrence score (RS). The PAM50 risk of recurrence (ROR) score provides an alternative approach, which also identifies intrinsic subtypes. Patients and Methods mRNA from 1,017 patients with ER-positive primary breast cancer treated with anastrozole or tamoxifen in the ATAC trial was assessed for ROR using the NanoString nCounter. Likelihood ratio (LR) tests and concordance indices (c indices) were used to assess the prognostic information provided beyond that of a clinical treatment score (CTS) by RS, ROR, or IHC4, an index of DR risk derived from immunohistochemical assessment of ER, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and Ki67. Results ROR added significant prognostic information beyond CTS in all patients (Δ LR-χ2 = 33.9; P < .001) and in all four subgroups: node negative, node positive, HER2 negative, and HER2 negative/node negative; more information was added by ROR than by RS. C indices in the HER2-negative/node-negative subgroup were 0.73, 0.76, and 0.78 for CTS, CTS plus RS, and CTS plus ROR, respectively. More patients were scored as high risk and fewer as intermediate risk by ROR than by RS. Relatively similar prognostic information was added by ROR and IHC4 in all patients but more by ROR in the HER2-negative/node-negative group. Conclusion ROR provides more prognostic information in endocrine-treated patients with ER-positive, node-negative disease than RS, with better differentiation of intermediate- and higher-risk groups.

Oncotype Dx Recurrence Score

542 Background: The TAILORx trial demonstrated that adjuvant endocrine and chemoendocrine therapies had similar efficacy in patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative breast cancer with an Oncotype DX recurrence score (RS) of 11-25. However, a predictive strategy is needed to identify patients with intermediate RS who may benefit from adjuvant chemoendocrine therapy. Curebest 95GC Breast (95GC) is a 95-gene signature that can stratify patients into two groups with high (95GC-H) and low (95GC-L) groups to predict the risk of recurrence. Our primary objective was to show that 95GC can classify patients with intermediate RS into binary recurrence risk groups. Methods: Patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative invasive breast cancer and RS 11-30 who underwent definitive surgery and adjuvant endocrine therapy were included. RNA was derived from archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples, and 95GC was calculated as reported previously. The Fisher exact and Brunner-Munzel tests were used to compare variables between 95GC groups. A Kaplan-Meier estimate with a log-rank test was used for recurrence-free survival (RFS) analysis. Results: The analysis included 178 patients from five institutions. The 5-year RFS rate in patients with RS 18-30 was higher in the 95GC-L group (n = 129, 96.3%) than in the 95GC-H group (n = 49, 90.9%; p = 0.002), which was consistent with results in an independent Japanese population (n = 224; p < 0.001). RFS rates significantly differed between the groups among patients with RS 11-25 as well (95GC-L, 97.4%; 95GC-H, 87.1%; p = 0.001). RFS rates did not differ between patients with RS 18-25 (94.8%) and those with RS 26-30 (93.8%; p = 0.33). Conclusions: 95GC can predict recurrence risk in patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative invasive breast cancer and intermediate RS. Further prospective retrospective studies in the TAILORx population are warranted to confirm that 95GC can identify patients who may benefit from adjuvant chemoendocrine therapy.

Purpose The 21-gene breast cancer assay recurrence score (RS) is widely used for assessing recurrence risk and predicting chemotherapy benefit in patients with estrogen receptor (ER) –positive breast cancer. Pathologic and clinical factors such as tumor size, grade, and patient age also provide independent prognostic utility. We developed a formal integration of these measures and evaluated its prognostic and predictive value. Patients and Methods From the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel (NSABP) B-14 and translational research cohort of the Arimidex, Tamoxifen Alone or in Combination (TransATAC) studies, we included patients who received hormonal monotherapy, had ER-positive tumors, and RS and traditional clinicopathologic factors assessed (647 and 1,088, respectively). Individual patient risk assessments from separate Cox models were combined using meta-analysis to form an RS-pathology-clinical (RSPC) assessment of distant recurrence risk. Risk assessments by RS and RSPC were compared in node-negative (N0) patients. RSPC was compared with RS for predicting chemotherapy benefit in NSABP B-20. Results RSPC had significantly more prognostic value for distant recurrence than did RS (P < .001) and showed better separation of risk in the study population. RSPC classified fewer patients as intermediate risk (17.8% v 26.7%, P < .001) and more patients as lower risk (63.8% v 54.2%, P < .001) than did RS among 1,444 N0 ER-positive patients. In B-20, the interaction of RSPC with chemotherapy was not statistically significant (P = .10), in contrast to the previously reported significant interaction of RS with chemotherapy (P = .037). Conclusion RSPC refines the assessment of distant recurrence risk and reduces the number of patients classified as intermediate risk. Adding clinicopathologic measures did not seem to enhance the value of RS alone nor the individual biology RS identifies in predicting chemotherapy benefit.

Abstract Purpose A subset of patients with intermediate 21-gene signature assay recurrence score may benefit from adjuvant chemoendocrine therapy, but a predictive strategy is needed to identify such patients. The 95-gene signature assay was tested to stratify patients with intermediate RS into high (95GC-H) and low (95GC-L) groups that were associated with invasive recurrence risk.Methods Patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative breast cancer and RS 11-25 who underwent definitive surgery and adjuvant endocrine therapy without any cytotoxic agents were included. RNA was extracted from archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples, and 95-gene signature was calculated. Results Two hundred six patients had RS of 11-25 (95GC-L, N = 163; 95GC-H, N = 43). In Cox proportional hazards model, 95GC-H was significantly associated with shorter time to recurrence than was 95GC-L (HR 5.94; 95%CI 1.81-19.53; P = 0.005). The correlation between 95-gene signature and 21-gene signature assay scores was not strong (correlation coefficient r = 0.27), which might suggest that 95-gene signature reflects biological characteristics differing from what 21-gene signature shows.Conclusions The 95-gene signature stratifies patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative invasive breast cancer and intermediate RS of 11-25 into high and low groups that are associated with recurrence risk of invasive disease. Further retrospective analysis in the prospectively-accrued TAILORx population is warranted to confirm that 95-gene signature can identify patients who would benefit from adjuvant chemoendocrine therapy.
