IMpact of Breast cAncer Gene Status on Survival in Adjuvant Breast Cancer (IMBASSA)

Completed
Conditions
BRCA1 Mutation
BRCA2 Mutation
Breast Cancer
Interventions
Genetic: BRCA mutation
Registration Number
NCT04012229
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon
Brief Summary

Relationship between the presence of the BRCA mutation (BReast Cancer) and outcomes is unclear in high-risk early breast cancers (BC).

This study is a multi-center retrospective cohort of patients treated in region Franche-Comté for an early BC by neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy.

The primary aim was to describe clinical and pathological characteristics considering BRCA mutated (BRCAm) patients versus BRCA wild type (BRCAwt) patients or untested patients. The second objective was to assess the prognostic impact of germinal BRCAm in this high-risk population.

Patients treated by chemotherapy for an early breast cancerBRCA mutationPatients (Women or Men) older than 18 years old, histologically confirmed invasive early breast cancer, treated by neo-adjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy with the first cure of chemotherapy received between January 1st, 2003 and December 31th, 2013 were included.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Scarff Bloom and Richardson grade (SBR)one day

This grade is the addition of score of tubule formation (\>75% 1 point 10%-75% 2 point \<10% 3 points), nuclear pleomorphism (small, regular uniform cells 1 point moderate increase in size and variability 2 points, marked Variation 3 points) and mitotic counts (dependent on microscope field area 1-3 points) assessed by pathology analysis on tumor after surgery. The SBR grade is ranging from I (total of 3 to 5), II (6 and 7) and III (8 and 9).

Pathological nodal involvementone day

Presence of metastasis on complete lymphadenectomy

HER2 statusone day

Expression of HER2 on tumor after surgery (expression assessed by immuno-histo-chemistry, if HER2 is ++, fluorescence in situ hybridization. HER2 status is ranged to not overexpressed (0 and +), equivocal (++) and overexpressed (+++).

Metastatic sites (if available)one day

Metastatic sites of primary breast cancer : Nodal (other than axillary), lung, liver, bone, cerebral and other sites.

Age of diagnosisone day

The date from the date of birth to the date of pathological diagnosis (Years)

Clinical nodal involvementone day

Presence of axillary lymph nodes before surgery (no versus yes)

Pathological histotypeone day

Histologic subtype of breast tumor : ductal, lobular or other, assessed by pathology analysis on tumor after complete surgery

Medical treatmentone day

Type of chemotherapy (adjuvant, neoadjuvant, metastatic)

Pathological tumor sizeone day

Pathological tumoral size after partial or complete surgery

Pathological size in millimeters after complete surgery

Estrogen receptor expression statusone day

Expression of estrogen receptors on tumor after surgery (% expression in immuno-histo-chemistry, ranging from 0 to 100%.

In situ componentone day

Presence or absence of in situ carcinoma assessed by pathology analysis on tumor after surgery

Clinical tumor sizeone day

Clinical measurement of the tumor in millimeters after surgery

Progesterone receptor expression statusone day

Expression of progesterone receptor on tumor after surgery (% expression in immuno-histo-chemistry, ranging from 0 to 100%.

Sexeone day

Male or Female

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Survivalone day

The time from the date of first treatment or of first consultation, whichever comes first, to the date of death from any cause.

Invasive Disease Free Survivalone day

The time from the date of the first treatment or th first consultation to the date of local or ipsilateral or controlateral invasive breast cancer, or other invasive cancer or distant recurrence or death from breast cancer or any cause

Distant Disease Free Survivalone day

The time from the date of the first treatment or the first consultation to the date of distant recurrence or death from breast cancer or any cause
