Currently, the benefit of chemotherapy (CT) in node-negative breast carcinoma (NNBC) is discussed. The evaluation of classical clinical and histological factors is limited to assess individual outcome. A statistical model was developed to improve the prognostic accuracy of NNBC.
A total of 305 node-negative breast carcinomas who underwent surgery (+/- radiotherapy) but no adjuvant treatment were selected. Putative prognosis factors including age, tumour size, oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR), Scarff-Bloom-Richardon (SBR) grading, urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) and thymidine kinase (TK) were evaluated. The developed model was internally validated using Harrell's concordance index. A prognosis index (PI) was proposed and compared with Adjuvant! Online program.
Age (p < 0.001), pathological tumour size (pT) (p < 0.001), PgR (p = 0.02), and PAI-1 (p ≤ 0.001) were included in the Cox regression model predicting Breast cancer specific survival (BCSS) at 5-years. Internal validation revealed a concordance index of 0.71. A PI score was derived from our nomogram. The PI score was significantly associated with BCSS (hazard ratio (HR): 4.1 for intermediate, p=0.02, HR: 8.8, p < 0.001 for high group) as compared to Adjuvant! Online score (HR: 1.4, p=0.14).
A nomogram can be used to predict probability survival curves for individual breast cancer patients.
目前,正在讨论化疗(CT)对淋巴结阴性乳腺癌(NNBC)的益处。评估经典的临床和组织学因素仅限于评估个体预后。建立了一个统计模型来提高 NNBC 的预后准确性。
共选择 305 例接受手术(+/- 放疗)但未接受辅助治疗的淋巴结阴性乳腺癌患者。评估了潜在的预后因素,包括年龄、肿瘤大小、雌激素受体(ER)、孕激素受体(PgR)、Scarff-Bloom-Richardon(SBR)分级、尿激酶型纤溶酶原激活物(uPA)、纤溶酶原激活物抑制剂 1(PAI-1)和胸苷激酶(TK)。使用 Harrell 的一致性指数对内建模型进行了验证。提出了一个预后指数(PI),并与 Adjuvant! Online 程序进行了比较。
年龄(p<0.001)、病理肿瘤大小(pT)(p<0.001)、PgR(p=0.02)和 PAI-1(p≤0.001)被纳入预测 5 年乳腺癌特异性生存(BCSS)的 Cox 回归模型。内部验证显示一致性指数为 0.71。从我们的列线图中得出了一个 PI 评分。PI 评分与 BCSS 显著相关(中危组 HR:4.1,p=0.02,高危组 HR:8.8,p<0.001),而与 Adjuvant! Online 评分(HR:1.4,p=0.14)相比。
列线图可用于预测个体乳腺癌患者的生存概率曲线。
