Lymph node ratio as an independent prognostic factor for breast cancer-related mortality in patients with node-positive breast cancer

Aim: This study assessed whether prognostic information could be obtained in patients with lymph node (LN)-positive breast cancer based on their LN ratios (LNRs) and explored the relationships between other potential prognostic factors and survival. Setting and Design: This was a retrospective clini...

description Aim: This study assessed whether prognostic information could be obtained in patients with lymph node (LN)-positive breast cancer based on their LN ratios (LNRs) and explored the relationships between other potential prognostic factors and survival. Setting and Design: This was a retrospective clinical study. Materials and Methods: This study included 608 women with node-positive nonmetastatic breast cancer. Clinical and pathologic data were retrospectively evaluated. The median age was 51 years (range: 23-84 years). All patients received adjuvant radiotherapy after radical surgery. A total dose of 50 Gy was administered to the chest wall or breast and LN regions with 2 Gy daily fractions. A 10-Gy boost was administered to the breast tumor bed. The cutoff value of LNR was defined as low risk (0.65) in 113 patients. Prognostic variables included patient characteristics, disease characteristics, and interventional factors. The primary endpoint was overall survival and the secondary endpoint was breast cancer-related mortality. Statistical Analysis Used: Statistical analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox regression analysis. P value was required to be

The cutoff value of LNR was defined as low risk (&lt;0.21) in 278 patients, intermediate risk (0.21-0.65) in 217 patients, and high risk (&gt;0.65) in 113 patients.

Statistical Analysis Used: Statistical analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox regression analysis. P value was required to be &lt;0.05. Results: Within a median follow-up period of 95.4 months (range: 5-232.4 months), overall survival rates for 10 and 15 years were 66% and 53%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that LNR (P = 0.026), estrogen receptor status (ERS) (P = 0.021), age (P = 0.04), and smoking (P = 0.024) were independent significant prognostic factors for overall survival. Breast cancer-related mortality rates at 10 and 15 years were 70.7% and 60%, respectively. LNR (P = 0.03) and ERS (P = 0.002) were independent significant prognostic factors for breast cancer-related mortality. Conclusions: LNR and ERS were significant prognostic factors for survival at all endpoints.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0973-1482</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1998-4138</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.4103/jcrt.JCRT_1034_19</identifier><identifier>PMID: 33342802</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>India: Wolters Kluwer India Pvt.
