96 Background: In the last decade there has been an increase in the incidence of contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) for unilateral breast cancer. Although many factors have been proposed to explain this trend, the impact of breast reconstruction on the decision to undergo CPM has not been extensively studied. Methods: A retrospective review of breast cancer patients from Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) registry data (2004-2008) was conducted. Characteristics of patients undergoing CPM were evaluated. Results: 71,176 patients with a diagnosis of stage I-III infiltrating ductal or lobular breast cancer underwent mastectomy for their primary lesion. Among these, 10,558 patients (15%) underwent a CPM. A significantly higher proportion of women undergoing CPM had reconstruction performed (44%) than those patients not undergoing CPM (13%), p<0.001. On multivariate analysis (Table), significant variables predicting CPM included age <50 years (OR 10.12), breast reconstruction (OR 3.58), and lobular histology (OR 1.41), all p<0.001. Of the 12,466 patients (18%) who underwent reconstruction, 4,636 (37%) had implant reconstruction, 4,498 (36%) had tissue reconstruction, and 1,122 (9%) had combined tissue/implant reconstruction (no data for 18%). On multivariate analysis, predictors of reconstruction included age <50 years (OR 20.5; CI 18.5-22.7), year of surgery (2008 vs. 2004; OR 1.60; CI 1.49-1.71), low tumor grade (OR 1.19; CI 1.13-1.25) and ER+ status (OR 1.16; 95% CI 1.10-1.23). The use of radiation therapy was associated with a lower likelihood of pursuing reconstruction (OR 0.61; CI 0.58-0.65). Conclusions: Apart from age, the factor most strongly associated with CPM is the decision to have reconstructive surgery performed. This suggests that CPM may not be purely associated with risk-reduction but also with treatment factors such as cosmesis. [Table: see text]

Abstract INTRODUCTION Patient derived xenografts (PDX) may better reflect individual patient (pt) tumor biology; however, the feasibility of collecting PDX from percutaneous tumor biopsies (PTB) in the neoadjuvant setting is unknown. Furthermore, drug response phenotypes observed in PDX have not been prospectively compared to the corresponding pt clinical outcomes. METHODS The Breast Cancer Genome Guided Therapy Study (BEAUTY) is a prospective Mayo study of pts with high-risk breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant weekly paclitaxel (T) +/- trastuzumab followed by anthracycline based chemotherapy. PTB (at baseline) and residual surgical tissue (after all chemotherapy) are obtained for next generation sequencing (NGS) and PDX. Tumor biopsies (1-2 cores from 14 gauge needle) were implanted with Matrigel &lt;1 hour of collection in the flanks of NOD-SCID or NSG mice. Low dose estradiol was supplemented in the drinking water. Primary outgrowth rate was defined as PDX tumor volume &gt;50 mm3. Take rate was defined as development of at least 1 stably transplantable xenograft line/pt. To determine whether clinical T response assessed by MRI corresponded with in vivo T response, pretreatment PDX from 5 pts were injected into NOD-SCID mice (20 mice per pt PDX) and when tumors reached 100-200mm3, mice were randomized to no treatment vs T (20 mg/kg, ip. every 3-4 days). Two of these 5 patients had a MRI response defined as &gt;30% decrease in longest lesion. RESULTS Pretreatment PTB from 81 unique pts were implanted in 251 mice (2-4 mice/pt). PDX outgrowth rates were 33.3% (27/81 pts) and 22 stable PDX were established (overall take rate 27.2%). Take rates were as follows: triple negative breast cancer (46%; 13/28); HER2 (27%; 6/22), Luminal B (13%; 3/22), and luminal A (0%; 0/9). Residual surgical tumor (after all treatment) from 17 pts was injected into 85 mice (average 5 mice/pt) and the initial outgrowth rate was 23% (4/17) with 3 stably transplantable lines established. PDX, derived from pretreatment PTB of 5 pts (2 responders and 3 non-responders), were assessed for in vivo T response. The size of the T treated group was significantly smaller than the no treatment group for the PDX derived from the 2 clinical responders, with complete disappearance of tumor by 18 days. In contrast, the PDX derived from the 3 clinical non-responders had no evidence for T response. CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated the feasibility of using PTB to establish PDX in a prospective neoadjuvant clinical study and have demonstrated similar T drug response phenotypes in in the PDX as seen in the corresponding pt. These data suggest that PDX generated prospectively may be useful for biomarker validation and the development and individualization of new drug therapy.

Abstract Abstract #4018 Background: Preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to identify occult breast disease in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer. We sought to determine the accuracy of MRI in predicting the actual pathologic tumor size in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer.&#x2028; Methods: Preoperative breast MRI was reviewed in 460 women with newly diagnosed breast cancer. The size in terms of maximum tumor dimension, of 476 incident breast cancers on MRI were recorded and correlated with the actual pathologic size upon surgical resection. The correlation of size from MRI to pathology was determined. The size discrepancy was analyzed in relation to tumor size and histology.&#x2028; Results: MRI demonstrated 476 breast cancers (460 in the ipsilateral breast and 16 with concurrent contralateral breast cancer). Median age was 62 with a range of 25 to 91. The T stages of the population included T0 in 19% of the women, 60% had T1 lesions, 18% had T2 lesions and 3% were T3 or T4. The histology consisted of DCIS alone in 20%, infiltrating ductal in 74% and infiltrating lobular in 6%. Pre-operative MRI was unable to define an enhancing lesion usually due to hematoma following core needle biopsy in 9.8% (47/476). MRI described the size of the incident lesion in 90% (429/476). The mean difference in size between the preoperative MRI and the actual pathologic size for the entire group was 2.4 mm. MRI underestimated tumor size in only 3% of cases. The mean difference according to T stage and histology between MRI and actual pathologic size is listed in Table 1. The percentage of difference between MRI size and pathologic size for the entire group is presented in Table 2.&#x2028; &#x2028; &#x2028; &#x2028; Discussion: The mean difference in tumor size estimated by preoperative MRI in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer was within 5 mm of the actual pathologic size in 68% of patients. MRI was accurate in predicting T stage with no significant difference in relation to histology or T stage. This analysis further clarifies the role of preoperative MRI in surgical and treatment planning. Citation Information: Cancer Res 2009;69(2 Suppl):Abstract nr 4018.

Abstract Long-term outcomes and hence the role of adjuvant therapy in patients with small (≤1 cm), node-negative breast cancer remain unclear. This study's objective was to evaluate whether human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-2 status is an independent, poor prognostic marker in patients with these tumors and to identify a subgroup of patients with these small tumors who might benefit from adjuvant systemic therapy. All patients with a diagnosis of a node-negative breast tumor measuring ≤1 cm and available HER-2 test results between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2005, at the three Mayo Clinic sites were identified. Clinicopathologic data were compared in three groups: HER-2−, HER-2+, and triple-negative (TN) tumors. Of the 421 tumors identified, 364 (86.5%) were HER-2−, 28 (6.7%) were HER-2+, and 29 (6.9%) were TN. The median follow-up time was 1,015 days (range, 1–2,549 days). Groups were balanced in terms of patient age and tumor histology. Eleven patients with HER-2− tumors (3.0%), seven with HER-2+ tumors (25.0%), and eight with TN tumors (27.6%) received adjuvant chemotherapy. Follow-up data were available for 357, 28, and 28 patients in the three groups, respectively. Death rates in the three groups were 6.4% (23 of 357) (one recurrence-related death), 0% (0 of 28), and 7.1% (2 of 28) (one recurrence-related death), respectively. During follow-up, the tumor recurred in nine patients: four were HER-2− tumors (1.1%), two were HER-2+ tumors (7.1%), and three were TN tumors (10.7%). Patients with small, node-negative breast tumors have an excellent prognosis, but HER-2+ and TN tumors appear to have a higher recurrence rate, warranting consideration for broad use and optimization of systemic adjuvant treatments.
