Abstract
- Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer subtype with a higher risk of locoregional and distance recurrence. Consequently, this population was considered poor candidate for breast conservation (BCT). Our study aim was to determine whether BCT plus radiotherapy (RT) was equivalent to mastectomy for TNBC after adjustment of selection bias of demographic and clinical characteristics. Methods: The National Cancer Database was queried for women diagnosed as primary unilateral invasive clinical T1-2N0-2 TNBC from 2004-2016. Patients who underwent mastectomy or breast conservation (partial mastectomy plus radiation) were included. A 1:1 propensity match with replacement was performed to compare breast conservation vs. mastectomy. Overall survival was analyzed using stratified multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analysis.Results: Of 59,599 clinical T1-2N0-2 TNBC patients, 26,325 (44.2%) underwent mastectomy and 33,274 (55.8%) were treated with BCT. BCT patients were older (median age 59 vs. 54, p Citation Format: Lifen Cao, Christopher W Towe, Megan E Miller, Alberto J Montero, Robert Shenk.
