Abstract P1-07-09: Retrospective cohort study of patients (pts) diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) <40 yrs: 2000 to 2015⟨

Background Young women ( Methods YWBC were identified from pathology databases at 2 tertiary centers. Pts were divided into 2 cohorts: BC diagnoses from 2000-2007 (G1) and 2008-2015 (G2). ClinPath and Rx data were retrieved from clinical, radiology and histology databases. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS. Results We identified 347 pts. Tumor features are shown in Table I. Median age is 36 (23-39). By histology, 90.8% (n=315) had invasive ductal carcinoma, 53.1% (n=181) had Grade III BC and 56.3% (n=171) had lymphovascular invasion. Pregnancy-associated BC occurred in 10.7% (n=34). Mastectomy (MX) was performed in 53% (n=176) and axillary lymph node clearance (ALNC) in 63.8% (n=192 [G1: 84.3% vs. G2: 48.6%, p Table 1Tumor features Group 1 (n=149)Group 2 (n=198)Total (n=347)p-valueMedian tumor size (mm) 252222.5p=0.115Node positivity 88 (60.3%)100(51.5%)188 (55.3%)p=0.109Median node count 4 (1-44)1 (1-30)2 (1-44)p Rx characteristics are shown in Table 2. 85 pts received neo-adjuvant therapy (NAT); 48.3% (n=41) ER+/HER2-, 27% (n=23) HER2+ and 24.7% (n=21) TNBC. Pts receiving NAT in G2 trended towards improved pCR rate (G2: 24.6% vs G1: 8.3%, p=0.057). Endocrine Rx alone was received by 9.8% (n=22); 13.6% (n=18) in G2 vs 4.3% (n=4) in G1. OncotypeDx(ODx) was used in 23 pts (14.9%) (median score 17), 1 had a DR (ODx Score = 18).

Of note, 92.3% (n=12) of these were in G1. Relapse rates (RR) in TN and ER+/HER- pts were 19.6% (n=11) and 13.7% (n=26) respectively. There was a higher RR in G1 (34.8% vs 11.4%, p Conclusion In line with existing data, locally advanced dx is more prevalent in YWBC. MX and ALNC rates were high and most received multimodal Rx. The extent of axillary surgery declined. Pts in G2 had lower volume BC at diagnosis suggesting increasing awareness. TN and HER2+ subtypes accounted for a slightly higher proportion of BC cases. Pts with PCR had better outcomes. Only 16% relapsed with metastatic dx. The impact of HER2 Rx is highlighted by reduced RR in HER2+ G2 pts. Outcomes were unchanged in pts with ER+/HER2- and TNBC. These remain a priority for future research. Citation Format: Greally M, Kielty J, Das G, Malouf C, O&#39;Riordan L, Coleman N, Quinn C, McDermott E, Gullo G, Kelly C, Crown J, Prichard R, Walshe J.
