Prognostic value of EndoPredict® test in patients with hormone receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative primary breast cancer screened for the randomized, double-blind, phase III UNIRAD trial

We are excited to share findings from a recently published analysis exploring the prognostic value of EndoPredict® using prospectively collected data from node-positive ER+ HER2- breast cancer patients screened for the randomized, double-blind, phase III UNIRAD trial.¹

Patients categorized as EndoPredict® low- or high-risk were closely monitored for recurrence and survival outcomes in this pre-planned exploratory sub-analysis.

Key Study Findings:

• ​Of the 767 clinically high-risk pre- and postmenopausal patients included, 662 (86%) were classified as high-risk and 105 (14%) as low-risk using EndoPredict.
• The 5-year distant metastasis free survival (DMFS) rate was 100% for the low-risk group, compared to 94% for the high-risk group (p<0.0001).
• The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 100% for the low-risk group and 93% for the high-risk group. Patients with EndoPredict results indicating very high-risk, experienced a 5-year recurrence rate of 13% despite chemotherapy.
• EndoPredict was a significant independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival (DFS), even after adjusting for clinicopathological variables.

These results affirm EndoPredict®’s role as a reliable prognostic parameter for node-positive, ER-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer patients undergoing standard adjuvant treatment.

“Identification of a very high-risk population underscores the relevance of our findings for informing adjuvant interventions, particularly chemotherapy and emerging targeted therapies,” commented Frederique Penault-Llorca. “Our prospective series further reinforce the notable lack of events in the low-risk group, prompting consideration for treatment de-escalation strategies for this patient cohort.“

Highlights:

1. Prognostic power: EndoPredict® effectively distinguished between high and low-risk patients, with no recurrence observed in the low-risk group over a 5-year period.
2. LoE1A data: This sub-analysis provides Level of Evidence 1A data, affirming EndoPredict®’s efficacy in evaluating node-positive early breast cancer. EndoPredict stands out as the only second generation breast cancer recurrence test with Phase III data.
3. Reliability: Study findings confirm data from the prospective-retrospective GEICAM validation², underscoring the reliability and consistency of EndoPredict’s performance in closely matched cohorts treated with chemotherapy.

We believe that these compelling findings underscore the role of EndoPredict® in guiding personalized treatment decisions and optimizing patient outcomes.

What is EndoPredict®?

EndoPredict® is a prognostic and predictive test combining molecular and clinical factors that provides individualized results, allowing you to make confident decisions about adjuvant chemotherapy and the possibility to stop endocrine therapy after 5 years in ER+/HER2-early-stage breast cancer.

EndoPredict® gives clear results and actionable insights for treatment decisions:

1. Distant recurrence risk within years 0–10³
2. Absolute individualized chemotherapy benefit at 10 years⁴
3. Late distant recurrence risk up to 15 years⁵
