Study population: Retrospectively analysis of patients who received treatment for invasive breast cancer at the European Institute of Oncology between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2008. The original cohort comprised 9710 eligible patients with breast cancer, of whom 2289 (23.6%) underwent breast conserving surgery + whole breast irradiation and 7421 (76.4%) underwent mastectomy alone. After propensity score matching, 1970 of the 2289 patients who underwent mastectomy (86.1%) were successfully matched to 1970 patients who underwent breast conserving surgery.

Who may be able to join

  • First primary breast cancer
  • pT1-2
  • pN0-3a
  • Surgery performed at European Institute of Oncology between 2000 and 2008

Who cannot join

  • pT>=3
  • Neoadjuvant treatment
  • Presence of metastatic breast disease at the time of admission or within 3 months

About this study

Official title: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis of Breast-Conserving Surgery Plus Whole-Breast Irradiation Versus Mastectomy in Breast Cancer

This is a retrospective propensity score-matched analysis of a large institutional cohort of patients in order to compare long-term outcomes and clinicopathologic characteristics between patients treated with breast conserving surgery or mastectomy for breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the study is to compare long-term outcomes and clinicopathologic characteristics between patients treated with breast conserving surgery + whole breast irradiation or mastectomy for breast cancer.

Recent observations regarding long-term outcomes among patients with early-stage breast cancer who underwent breast-conserving surgery plus whole-breast irradiation or mastectomy are from a small number of registry-based studies.

Therefore, these findings may overestimate differences in survival between the two groups, compared with randomized controlled trials conducted in the 1980s.

This study performed a propensity score-matched analysis in a cohort of 9710 patients aged <70 years who underwent breast conserving surgery + whole breast irradiation or mastectomy without external radiotherapy for a first primary breast cancer (pT1-2, N0-3a) at the European Institute of Oncology between 2000 and 2008.

Patients were matched by propensity score.

    Measured: 10 years

  4. Rate of distant metastasis

    Incidence of distant metastasis in breast conserving surgery group compared to mastectomy group

    Measured: 10 years

  5. Cumulative incidence of breast cancer specific survival

    Cumulative incidence of breast cancer specific survival in breast conserving surgery group compared to mastectomy group

    Measured: 10 years

  6. Rate of overall survival

    Incidence of survival in breast conserving surgery group compared to mastectomy group

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by European Institute of Oncology.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cumulative incidence of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (time frame: 10 years). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Nov 2021.
