BACKGROUND: Considering old age and comorbidities, the actual benefit of chemotherapy in older patients with early triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains uncertain. We aimed to select appropriate patients who could avoid chemotherapy in this population.
METHODS: A total of 6482 patients more than 65 years old with T1-2N0-1M0 TNBC in 2010-2015 were extracted from SEER program. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify independent factors associated with chemotherapy usage. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier plots and log-rank tests. Independent prognostic factors were identified by multivariate Cox analysis. A nomogram predicting breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) and a risk stratification model were constructed.
RESULTS: A total of 3379 (52.13%) patients received chemotherapy while 3103 (47.87%) did not. Age, married status, grade, T-stage, N-stage, radiation and breast-conserving surgery (BCS) were significantly associated with chemotherapy usage (all P < .05). Chemotherapy significantly improved OS (HR = 0.606, P < .001) and BCSS (HR = 0.763, P = .006) in the entire population. A nomogram was built by incorporating independent risk factors (age, T-stage, N-stage, grade and radiation). Based on the score of the nomogram, the risk stratification model demonstrated that chemotherapy improved OS (P < .001) and BCSS (P < .001) of patients in the high-risk group (score >180), but not in the low-risk group (score ≤75).
CONCLUSION: Chemotherapy is beneficial for geriatric patients with T1-2N0-1M0 TNBC in this study, and the risk stratification model indicates the feasibility of sparing chemotherapy in low-risk subgroup without sacrificing survival, providing clinicians tools to weigh the risk-benefit of chemotherapy and customize the individualized treatment accordingly.
