In this session, to define the risk of recurrence there are multi-factors like tumor size, lymph node status, age, and genetic testing in assessing the risk for hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer patients.
In Part I, focuses on the impact of tumor size and lymph node status on high and low risk. A cross-generational study involving 151 clinical trials and over 150,000 patients shows that recurrence risk persists over time despite advancements in medication.
Although the more lymph node metastasis, the higher the recurrence risk, a 2024 ASCO retrospective study from MSKCC indicates a 3-year recurrence risk of 8.5% and a 5-year risk of 17.4% and 7 year risk of 25.7 in re-define high risk N0 population.
In part 2, focuses on discussing the impact of age and genetic testing on the risk for hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer patients.
Age is a significant prognostic factor, with younger patients having relatively poorer prognosis.
Genetic tests (e.g., Oncotype DX, MammaPrint, Prosigna, EndoPredict, Breast Cancer Index) are used to predict patient risk and guide treatment decisions.
Personalized treatment plans are developed based on age and genetic test results with more consideration treatment schedule needed.
