PURPOSE: Predicting the pattern of recurrence can aid in the development of targeted surveillance and treatment strategies. We identified patient populations that remain at risk for an event at a median follow-up of 24 years from the diagnosis of operable breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: International Breast Cancer Study Group clinical trials I to V randomly assigned 4,105 patients between 1978 and 1985. Annualized hazards were estimated for breast cancer-free interval (primary end point), disease-free survival, and overall survival. RESULTS: For the entire group, the annualized hazard of recurrence was highest during the first 5 years (10.4%), with a peak between years 1 and 2 (15.2%). During the first 5 years, patients with estrogen receptor (ER)--positive disease had a lower annualized hazard compared with those with ER-negative disease (9.9% v 11.5%; P = .01). However, beyond 5 years, patients with ER-positive disease had higher hazards (5 to 10 years: 5.4% v 3.3%; 10 to 15 years: 2.9% v 1.3%; 15 to 20 years: 2.8% v 1.2%; and 20 to 25 years: 1.3% v 1.4%; P < .001). Among patients with ER-positive disease, annualized hazards of recurrence remained elevated and fairly stable beyond 10 years, even for those with no axillary involvement (2.0%, 2.1%, and 1.1% for years 10 to 15, 15 to 20, and 20 to 25, respectively) and for those with one to three positive nodes (3.0%, 3.5%, and 1.5%, respectively). CONCLUSION: Patients with ER-positive breast cancer maintain a significant recurrence rate during extended follow up. Strategies for follow up and treatments to prevent recurrences may be most efficiently applied and studied in patients with ER-positive disease followed for a long period of time.
目的:预测复发模式有助于制定针对监测和治疗策略。我们确定了在可手术乳腺癌诊断后中位随访 24 年时仍存在事件风险的患者人群。
患者和方法:国际乳腺癌研究组临床试验 I 至 V 于 1978 年至 1985 年期间随机分配了 4105 名患者。估计了乳腺癌无复发生存期(主要终点)、无病生存率和总生存率的年化风险。
结果:对于整个组,复发的年化风险在最初 5 年最高(10.4%),在 1 至 2 年之间达到峰值(15.2%)。在最初 5 年内,与 ER 阴性疾病相比,ER 阳性疾病患者的年化风险较低(9.9%比 11.5%;P =.01)。然而,超过 5 年后,ER 阳性疾病患者的风险更高(5 至 10 年:5.4%比 3.3%;10 至 15 年:2.9%比 1.3%;15 至 20 年:2.8%比 1.2%;20 至 25 年:1.3%比 1.4%;P<.001)。在 ER 阳性疾病患者中,即使对于无腋窝受累(10 至 15 年分别为 2.0%、2.1%和 1.1%;15 至 20 年分别为 3.0%、3.5%和 1.5%;20 至 25 年分别为 1.3%、1.4%和 1.1%)和 1 至 3 个阳性淋巴结的患者,复发的年化风险仍然较高且相对稳定。
结论:ER 阳性乳腺癌患者在长期随访中保持着显著的复发率。在长期随访的 ER 阳性疾病患者中,随访和预防复发的治疗策略的应用和研究可能最为有效。
