The Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test significantly altered adjuvant chemotherapy decisions for early-stage breast cancer patients in Poland. This genomic test helped avoid unnecessary chemotherapy for many, improving treatment personalization.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Genomics
  • Clinical Decision Support

Background:

  • Optimal treatment for early HR+, HER2-, lymph node-negative (N0) breast cancer (BC) remains challenging.
  • Clinicopathological features alone are often insufficient for accurate recurrence risk assessment.
  • Gene expression profiling tests offer a more precise method for evaluating adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score (RS) results on physician treatment decisions for adjuvant CT.
  • To assess the real-world application of Oncotype DX Breast RS in the Polish population.
  • To determine how genomic profiling influences chemotherapy recommendations in early-stage BC.

Main Methods:

  • The PONDx survey analyzed data from 204 patients with HR+, HER2-, N0 BC across 8 Polish clinical centers.
  • Data collected included clinicopathological features and treatment changes post-Oncotype DX Breast RS testing.
  • Treatment recommendations (CT + endocrine therapy vs. ET alone) were compared before and after genomic test results were available.
  • Main Results:

    • Initial CT recommendations were 44.8%, decreasing significantly by 25.5% after RS results (p<0.05).
    • Treatment de-escalation occurred in 62.2% of patients initially recommended for CT.
    • Treatment escalation to CT occurred in 29.7% of patients initially recommended for ET alone, with notable impact in post-menopausal and lobular BC patients.

    Conclusions:

    • The Oncotype DX Breast RS test significantly influenced treatment decisions, leading to a 44.3% change in patient management.
    • Genomic testing helps avoid both overtreatment and undertreatment, optimizing adjuvant therapy selection.
    • The Oncotype DX Breast RS test enhances physician confidence and improves patient management in early-stage breast cancer.
