Background: Data published in 2015 showed that patients with early breast cancer (EBC) and a low-risk (LR) Recurrence Score® (RS) result by the 21-gene Oncotype DX® assay ("the test") did not derive benefit from adding chemotherapy (CT) to endocrine therapy (HT), while those with a high-risk (HR) RS result did. However, the role of CT remained uncertain in patients with intermediate-risk (IR) cancers. We designed a study to assess the test's ability to categorize patients with EBC with uncertain biological behavior into the groups (LR and HR) for which the value of additional chemotherapy was defined.

Introduction: Breast cancer (BC) is among the most frequently diagnosed malignant tumours in females. The optimal treatment of early HR+, HER2-, and lymph node-negative (N0) BC remains challenging. Since individual assessment of recurrence risk and expected benefits from adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) based on clinicopathological features alone appear inadequate, gene expression profiling tests have been developed.

Background: The role of 21-gene recurrence score (RS) testing on chemotherapy decision-making and survival outcomes for T3N0 luminal breast cancer (BC) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of RS testing in chemotherapy selection and prognosis in these patients.
Research Design And Methods: Patients diagnosed with T3N0 luminal BC were included from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Oncotype database.
