Key clinical point: Adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) significantly reduces the incidence of distant metastasis in patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2−) T1a/bN0M0 breast cancer (BC).
Major finding: The 9-year cumulative incidence of distant metastasis was significantly lower in patients who did vs did not receive adjuvant ET (1.5% vs 2.6%; adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio 0.54; P = .027), with the risk factors for distant metastasis being mastectomy (P = .022), no prior receipt of ET (P = .027), lymphatic invasion (P = .004), and higher nuclear grade (P = .047).
Study details: Findings are from a multicenter cohort study including 4758 patients with ER+ /HER2− T1a/bN0M0 BC who underwent surgery, of whom 3991 patients were administered adjuvant ET.
Disclosures: This study was partly supported by the National Cancer Center Research and Development Fund and the Practical Research for Innovative Cancer Control, Japan. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
