Abstract PS6-63: Validation of CTS5 as a predictor of distant late recurrence risk in HER2 negative luminal breast cancer: Latin American experience

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, 91% diagnosed in early stages and 80% of them expressing estrogen receptor (ER +). It is known that distant late recurrence (DLR) represents about 50% of all relapses. Thus, identifying patients with a higher risk of DLR...

Description
Summary:Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, 91% diagnosed in early stages and 80% of them expressing estrogen receptor (ER +). It is known that distant late recurrence (DLR) represents about 50% of all relapses. Thus, identifying patients with a higher risk of DLR is a essential need in ER + BC, leading to a potential personalized management. Within this scope, CTS 5 (Clinical Treatment Score after 5 years) was developed as a simple clinical-pathological tool that aims to estimate the residual risk of distance recurrence after 5 years of endocrine therapy (ET). Methodology: The validity of CTS5 was tested in a retrospective cohort. Patients diagnosed between 2005 and 2011 with early BC, ER+/HER2- tumors, alive and without recurrence within the first 5 years were selected. The primary endpoint was the time for distant late recurrence (DLR). Cox regression models were used to determine the prognostic value of CTS5 and to produce Kaplan-Meier curves with associated risks of DLR. Results: A total of 797 women were included with a median follow-up of 105 months. According to the CTS5, 424 (53.2%), 239 (30.0%), and 134 (16.8%) patients were classified into the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk of DLR, respectively (table 1). CTS5 results were prognostic for DLR: patients with CTS5-high showed a fivefold relative risk of developing an DLR compared to patients with CTS5-low (HR, 5.1 IC95% [2.24-11.47], p <0.0001) (table 2). When assessing continuously, an one-point increase in CTS5 increased the relative risk of DLR by 87% (HR, 1,87 95% CI [1,324 - 2,632] p <0.0001). These results were confirmed when we stratified by age (age≤50 years vs. age>50 years). Conclusion: Our results support its use in clinical practice as a predictor for patients with early-stage BC, ER +, and HER2- in real life. Besides, our study serves as a hypothesis generator for future confirmations through prospective studies. Thus, we will be able to assess, through prospective studies, whether the CTS5 can be used to personalize the patient's follow-up or even evaluate its usefulness in the decision to prolong or not ET. Such results would be extremely important, given the known difficulty in accessing genomic assays, especially in developing countries.
