Breast anatomic IA
T1N0
ASTRO APBI “Cautionary” Criteria
40-49 years and all other suitable criteria are met
OR age ≥50 and at least one of:
size 2.1-3.0 cm
T2
margin <2mm
limited/focal LVSI
ER-
ILC
any DCIS ≤3 cm if suitable criteria not met
EIC ≤3 cm
Breast clinical N2a
fixed axillary nodes
Breast: outcomes for early stage
10yr LR 6%
10yr OS 85%
(EBCTCG)
Breast T1c
>10mm - ≤20mm
Breast T2
>2cm - ≤5cm
Breast anatomic IIIA
N2, T3N1
Breast path N3b
axillary nodes and IMN involvement (either clinical or pathological)
Breast: when to treat nodes post-lumpectomy
One way: 4 nodes positive or 1-3 nodes and medial tumor
Another way: any nodes positive
ASTRO APBI “Suitable” Criteria
age ≥50
Tis or T1
margins ≥3 mm
Breast path N1c
1-3 axillary nodes with positive IMN sentinel node (N1a + N1b)
Breast: Workup
H&P, family history, menopausal status, pregnancy, collagen vascular disease breast/node exam
Labs: CBC, LFTs, alk phos, beta-HCG, consider genetic testing
Imaging primary: diagnostic mammogram (magnification for calcs, spot compression for questionable mass), US with core needle bx (receptor status)
Oncotype if ER/PR+ and tumor >5mm
MRI potential indications: DCIS, unknown primary (axillary node or pageats), neoadjuvant chemo planned, dense breasts, assess multicentric or multifocal disease
Imaging staging: CXR. Bone scan and CT only for Stage III. PET scan increasing in use
Breast anatomic IIB
T2N1, T3N0
Breast: indications for hormones
ER+ Premenopausal: tamoxifen 10 years OR tam then AI for 5+5 years if becomes postmenopausal
Postmenopausal: AI for 5 years
Breast path N3c
supraclavicular nodes
Breast: indications for chemo
Her2+
triple negative
ER/PR+ that is >0.5 cm and had high Oncotype
node positive
Breast: chemo regimens
Her2-: ddAC (q 2 weeks x 4 cycles) + Taxol, neulasta support
Her2 +: AC/paclitaxol/herceptin (not dose dense) give taxol 4mg starting dose with first day of taxol, and continue weekly x 1yr
Inflammatory breast cancer: workup, treatment paradigm
PET and CT C/A/P neoadjuvant chemo -> mastectomy -> PMRT with regional node irradiation 50 Gy plus 10-16 Gy boost, bolus skin!
For poor response to neoadjuvant chemo, consider pre-op treatment with 51 Gy in 1.5 BID plus 15 Gy boost OS 50%
Breast anatomic IIIC
N3
Breast: DCIS treatment paradigm
Lumpectomy or total mastectomy (consider SLNBx if mastectomy) Strongly favor XRT for grade 3, ER/PR negative, or young age 40Gy/15fxs +/- boost (grade 3, <2mm margin, comedonecrosis, age<50, ER/PR negative) Adjuvant Tam. Aromatase inhibitor if postmenopausal and age 50-60 (NSABP-35)
