Abstract PS11-01: Outcome without adjuvant systemic treatment in breast cancer patients included in the MINDACT trial

Background: Adjuvant systemic treatments have played an important role in the decline of breast cancer mortality over the years. Because of the extensive short- and long-term toxicities associated with these treatments, careful selection of patients likely to benefit from them is needed. Studies hav...

Description
Summary:Background: Adjuvant systemic treatments have played an important role in the decline of breast cancer mortality over the years. Because of the extensive short- and long-term toxicities associated with these treatments, careful selection of patients likely to benefit from them is needed. Studies have shown excellent survival in subgroups of patients receiving no adjuvant systemic treatments. Some national guidelines advise no adjuvant systemic treatments in specific groups of patients with clinical low risk breast cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate the survival of breast cancer patients who received no adjuvant treatment (chemotherapy nor endocrine therapy) using data from the EORTC 10041/BIG 3-04 MINDACT trial. Material and methods: Of the 6693 patients enrolled in the MINDACT trial, accrued 2007-2011, 509 patients with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative, lymph node negative tumors
