Prosigna Test Guides Chemotherapy Decisions in Breast Cancer
- New Standard for Chemotherapy Decisions: The OPTIMA trial reveals that 68% of high-risk node-positive breast cancer patients can safely forgo chemotherapy, achieving a 5-year cancer-free survival rate of 93.7%, statistically comparable to the 94.9% in the chemotherapy group, marking a significant shift in treatment decision-making.
- Broad Applicability: The trial confirmed non-inferiority across various high-risk subgroups, including premenopausal women and patients with extensive nodal involvement, indicating that tumor biology can guide chemotherapy decisions, enhancing treatment precision in clinical practice.
- Prospective Evidence: Involving 4,429 patients, the OPTIMA trial provides Level 1A evidence that the Prosigna test can accurately predict chemotherapy benefits and support safe de-escalation for high-risk patients, thereby reducing unnecessary side effects.
- Significant Clinical Impact: The study results will be presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting, expected to transform how clinicians approach breast cancer treatment decisions, enabling patients to opt for therapies with fewer side effects.
