Effect of postmastectomy radiotherapy on T1-2N1M0 triple-negative breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The effect of postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) on T1-2N1M0 triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) remains unclear. The population-based study aimed to investigate the survival outcomes of T1-2N1M0 TNBC patients who underwent PMRT or not.

Methods

We selected 1743 patients with T1-2N1M0 TNBC who underwent mastectomy between 2010 and 2015 through the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. After propensity score matching (PSM), the PMRT and no-PMRT groups consisted of 586 matched patients, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to calculate breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) and cox proportional hazard model was used to determine the prognostic factors of T1-2N1M0 TNBC.

Results

The 5-year BCSS for the PMRT and no-PMRT groups was 79.1% and 74.7%, respectively. Analysis showed that in patients with three nodes positive, radiotherapy could significantly improve BCSS (HR = 0.396, 95% CI = 0.175-0.900, P = 0.027), but it brought no significant advantage in BCSS in patients with one or two nodes positive (HR = 1.061, 95% CI = 0.725-1.552, P = 0.761; HR = 0.657, 95% CI = 0.405-1.065, P = 0.088). In addition, PMRT improves the BCSS in TNBC patients with T2 tumor concomitant with three positive lymph nodes (HR = 0.343, 95% CI = 0.132-0.890, P = 0.028).

Conclusion

TNBC patients with T2 tumor concomitant with three positive lymph nodes can benefit from PMRT.

Project description:PurposeThe effect of adjuvant irradiation after mastectomy in early-stage breast cancer patients remains controversial. The present study aims to explore the clinical benefit obtained from adjuvant radiotherapy among post-mastectomy pT1-2N1 breast cancer patients who received adjuvant modern systemic therapy.MethodsMedical records of consecutive patients with pT1-2N1 breast cancer who received mastectomy in our institution between January 2009 and December 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. High-risk features consist of patient age, number of positive lymph nodes, T stage, and Ki67 index, which were developed previously at our institution using early-stage breast cancer patients after mastectomy without adjuvant radiotherapy. Differences of survival and local recurrence were compared between no-postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) and PMRT group according to number of risk factors. The time-to-event curves were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier methods and compared by the log-rank test. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to reduce the imbalances in patient characteristics.ResultsA total of 548 patients were enrolled (no-PMRT: 259 and PMRT: 289). After a median follow-up of 69 months, the 5-year rate of DFS, BCSS, and LRR in the overall cohort was 90.2%, 97.4%, and 3.6%, respectively. PMRT did not significantly improve DFS, BCSS, and LRRFS in the whole cohort. Patients were divided into low-risk (with no or one risk factor) and high-risk (with two or more risk factors) groups. According to the univariable and multivariable analysis, high-risk group (HR = 1.81, 95% CI 1.11-2.98, p = 0.02) was demonstrated as an independent risk factor for DFS. For the high-risk group, PMRT significantly improved DFS from 81.4% to 91.9% and BCSS from 95.5% to 98.6% and decreased the 5-year rate of LRR from 5.6% to 1.4%, respectively (p < 0.01, p = 0.05, and p = 0.06). However, no survival benefit from PMRT was observed in the low-risk group in terms of DFS, BCSS, and LRR (p = 0.45, p = 0.51, and p = 0.99, respectively). In multivariate analysis, PMRT remained an independent prognostic factor for DFS (HR = 0.50, 95% CI 0.24-1.00, p = 0.05) in the high-risk group. After PSM analysis, the survival benefit of PMRT was sustained in high-risk patients.ConclusionPMRT significantly improved DFS in high-risk pT1-2N1 breast cancer patients, but not in low-risk patients. Independent validation of our scoring system is recommended.

Project description:ImportanceAdjuvant chemotherapy remains the only recommended treatment for patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, the existing evidence is not enough to recommend adjuvant therapies to patients with T1 N0 M0 TNBC.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association of different adjuvant therapies with survival outcome in patients with T1 N0 M0 TNBC stratified by cancer stage and age.Design, setting, and participantsPostoperative patients diagnosed as having T1 N0 M0 TNBC between 2010 and 2015 who were enrolled in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results cancer registry program were included in this population-based cohort study. Data analysis was performed from March 27, 2019, to August 10, 2020.ExposuresChemotherapy and radiotherapy.Main outcomes and measuresKaplan-Meier curve and univariate and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were performed to compare overall survival (OS) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) between the different treatments.ResultsA cohort of 7739 eligible patients (mean [SD] age, 59.5 [12.4] years; all female) were included in the present study. The 5-year OS of the total patients was 91.7% (95% CI, 90.9%-92.5%), and median follow-up was 45 months (95% CI, 44-46 months). Patients aged 70 years and older or with T1a TNBC were more likely to receive adjuvant radiotherapy than chemotherapy. Although any adjuvant therapy could improve OS in T1 N0 M0 TNBC, only chemotherapy was associated with significantly better breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS adjusted hazard ratio: 0.657; 95% CI, 0.460-0.939; P = .02). Adjuvant radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery was associated with better OS and BCSS in patients aged 70 years and older but not in those younger than 70 years. For patients with T1c BC, chemotherapy after breast-conserving surgery or other surgery was associated with improved OS, whereas only chemotherapy after other surgery was associated with better BCSS.Conclusions and relevanceThe findings of this cohort study suggest that adjuvant therapies could improve OS in patients with T1 N0 M0 TNBC, whereas only chemotherapy was associated with better BCSS. Older patients with early-stage TNBC may benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy. Administration of adjuvant therapies to patients with different ages and cancer stages should be discussed carefully, which necessitates guidance from updated guidelines.

Project description:PURPOSE:Auger electrons emitted by radioisotopes such as 125I have a high linear energy transfer and short mean-free path in tissue (<10??m), making them suitable for treating micrometastases while sparing normal tissues. The authors developed and subsequently investigated a cancer cell-selective small molecule phospholipid ether analog to deliver 125I to triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells in vivo. METHODS:A Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) method to radiolabel 125I-CLR1404 (CLR 125) with >95% radiochemical purity was established. To estimate CLR 125 in vivo dosimetry and identify dose-limiting organs, the biodistribution of the analog compound 124I-CLR1404 (CLR 124) was investigated using micro-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in conjunction with a Monte Carlo dosimetry platform to estimate CLR 125 dosimetry. In vivo antitumor efficacy was tested by injecting nude mice bearing either MDA-MB-231-luc orthotopic xenografts or lung metastases with 74?MBq (3.7 GBq/kg) of CLR 125 or an equivalent mass amount of nonradiolabeled CLR 125. Longitudinal tumor measurements using calipers and bioluminescence imaging were obtained for the xenografts and lung metastases, respectively. RESULTS:Dosimetry analysis estimated that CLR 125 would impart the largest absorbed dose to the tumor per injected activity (0.261?±?0.023 Gy/MBq) while the bone marrow, which is generally the dose-limiting organ for CLR1404, appears to have the lowest (0.063?±?0.005 Gy/MBq). At administered activities of up to 74?MBq (3.7 GBq/kg), mice did not experience signs of toxicity. In addition, a single dose of CLR 125 reduced the volume of orthotopic primary TNBC xenografts by ?60% compared to control vehicle (p?<?0.001) and significantly extended survival. In addition, CLR 125 was efficacious against preclinical metastatic TNBC models by inhibiting the progression of micrometastases (p?<?0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Targeted radionuclide therapy with CLR 125 displayed significant antitumor efficacy in vivo, suggesting promise for treatment of TNBC micrometastases.
