About this study

The study aims to evaluate the distribution of the Oncotype DX RS® genomic test in patients with ER-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer treated from January 2012 to December 2021, focusing on patients presenting germline mutations.

Read the detailed description

In the past decades, genetic testing for cancer susceptibility has become essential in breast cancer (BC) management. Up to 10% of BC cases are associated with an inherited mutation in various genes, especially BRCA 1 and BRCA 2. Estrogen receptor (ER) positivity is observed in 22% on BRCA 1 and 77% of BRCA 2 mutation carrier; moreover, other genes are strongly related to ER-positive cancer.

Oncotype DX assay (Genomic Health, Inc, Redwood City, Calif) is a 21 gene panel developed to predict the risk of tumor recurrence in patients with ER-positive and human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)- negative BC; nowadays, this test represents a standard of care to guide adjuvant chemotherapy decision recommended in several guidelines. According to Oncotype DX Recurrent Score (RS)® a high RS shows a worse prognosis and predicts chemotherapy benefit in patients with ER-positive HER2-negative BC.

Combining Oncotype DX RS® with other risk factor elements, in particular germline mutations, could help to select patients who would benefit from an appropriate adjuvant therapy.

This retrospective observational study aims to evaluate Oncotype DX RS® distribution in ER-positive HER2-negative BC patients treated from January 2012 to December 2021, focusing on patients harboring mutation in BC-associated genes compared to the general population.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Oncotype DX assay and RS® in participants.

    To evaluate the Oncotype DX RS® distribution in ER-positive early BC patients comparing patients with a deleterious germline mutation, patients with a VUS in BC-related genes and patients with no mutation.

    Measured: 30 days after surgery.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Oncotype DX assay and RS® in participants by menopausal or nodal status.

    To evaluate Oncotype DX RS® distribution stratifying patients by menopausal or nodal status.

    Measured: 30 days after surgery

  2. Distant or local recurrence.

    Evaluation of distant or local recurrence from follow-up data

    Measured: Up to 10 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer and Genetic Predisposition, run by IRCCS San Raffaele at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 3 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Oncotype DX assay and RS® in participants. (time frame: 30 days after surgery.). 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 3 Jul 2024.
