BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is associated with a relatively good prognosis. Prognostic factors examined to date are related to early recurrence while those related to late recurrence and their countermeasures remain unclear. Therefore, we examined the factors related to late recurrence.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: From January 1980 to August 2012, 4,774 patients who underwent primary treatment and estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptor (PgR) assessment were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups, those with a follow-up period <10 years and those without any recurrence at 10 years but who continued follow-up examinations. Recurrence occurred in 711 patients followed up for <10 years and in 51 patients for ≥10 years.
RESULTS: The overall 10-year cumulative disease-free survival rate was 79.5%, and the recurrence rate at ≥10 years was 5.8%. A multivariate analysis revealed that the factors related to late recurrence were PgR positivity and positive nodes. This result differed from that for early recurrence in terms of ER/PgR, Ki-67 index and p53 overexpression.
CONCLUSION: PgR positivity and lymph node metastases significantly correlated with late recurrence. Therefore, it is important to evaluate appropriate measures such as treatment period and treatment regimen for hormone-sensitive patients.
