Background: In the current era of targeted axillary dissection (TAD), there are still cases where axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is indicated, but histopathological examination confirms the regression of nodal metastases (ypN0). In this situation, ALND may represent undesirable overtreatment.
Methods: A retrospective study at the Comprehensive Cancer Centre was conducted based on a prospectively maintained database.

Importance: Intratumoral immunotherapy that leverages the biological characteristics of high-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) may be able to reduce the extent of surgical treatment and provide an alternative approach to improve patient outcomes.
Objective: To determine if combination intratumoral immunotherapy can activate immune cells to shrink or eliminate high-risk DCIS.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This phase 1 open-label nonrandomized clinical trial at a single academic center tested the safety and efficacy of intratumoral immunotherapy in patients with high-risk DCIS, defined as at least 2 of the following present: younger than 45 years, tumor size greater than 5 cm, high-grade, palpable mass, hormone receptor (HR)-negative, or ERBB2-positive.
