Use of Oncotype DX in Women with Node-Positive Breast Cancer
Women with early stage breast cancer frequently receive adjuvant chemotherapy to prevent recurrence; however, not all patients benefit. Recently, gene expression marker panels, such as Oncotype DX, that may better predict risk of breast cancer recurrence have become commercially available and are being used to guide treatment decisions. Oncotype DX analyzes the expression of 21 genes within a t...
متن کاملRapid Health Technology Assessment of Oncotype DX in Patients with Early-Stage Breast Cancer
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Patients are treated with chemotherapy initially, and if not chemically treated, the risk of recurrence of the disease increases yearly. Therefore, methods for identifying patients for whom chemotherapy would be most beneficial are very important. The Oncotype DX test is a prognostic assay that predicts the likelihood of breast can...
متن کاملComparison of EndoPredict and Oncotype DX Test Results in Hormone Receptor Positive Invasive Breast Cancer
AIM Several multigene expression-based tests offering prognostic and predictive information in hormone-receptor positive early breast cancer were established during the last years. These tests provide prognostic information on distant recurrences and can serve as an aid in therapy decisions. We analyzed the recently validated reverse-transcription-quantitative-real-time PCR-based multigene-expr...
متن کاملAssociation Between Oncotype DX Recurrence Score and Clinicopathological Variables in Breast Cancer Patients
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Clinicopathological variables are important factors in deciding on breast cancer treatment. This study evaluated the association between the recurrence score generated by the Oncotype DX® 21-gene assay and classic clinicopathological variables. Methods: A single-institution retrospect...
متن کاملTreatment decisions in estrogen receptor-positive early breast cancer patients with intermediate oncotype DX recurrence score results
This retrospective study evaluated the impact of intermediate Recurrence Score(®) results on adjuvant treatment decisions in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) early invasive breast cancer, comparing treatment recommendations pre-testing with actual treatments received post-testing. Of the 111 patients included in the analysis, 78 (70.3%) had hormonal therapy (HT) and 33 (29.7%) had chemohormonal...
