Role of traditional markers in ER+ EBC Markers are used to determine diagnosis, estimate prognosis and to inform treatment decisions Some markers (tumour grade, nodal status and genomic tests) are prognostic (PR); some are predictive of treatment benefit. Some are both predictive and prognostic (ER, HER2 and the Oncotype DX test) Standardisation and / or reproducibility of a test may present a challenge Variability in interpretation of results Despite the use of many markers, a large proportion of patients are classified as intermediate risk and there is a population in whom treatment decisions are not clear Cianfrocca and Goldstein.

NICE and UK Funding

NICE Recommendations for the Oncotype DX Breast Cancer Assay The Oncotype DX assay is recommended as an option for guiding adjuvant chemotherapy decisions for people with oestrogen receptor positive (ER+), lymph node negative (LN ) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2 ) early stage invasive breast cancer if: the person is assessed as being at intermediate risk and information on the biological features of the cancer provided by the Oncotype DX assay is likely to help in predicting the course of the disease and would therefore help when making the decision about prescribing chemotherapy and the manufacturer provides the Oncotype DX assay to NHS organisations according to the confidential arrangement agreed with NICE Genomic Health is making every effort to achieve NHS funding for this test NICE guidance, DG10. Sept 2013 http://guidance.nice.org.uk/dg10/costingtemplate/xls/english Accessed 7 May 2014

NICE Recommends the Oncotype DX Breast Cancer Assay for Intermediate Risk Patients NPI>3.4 used as a proxy for the cost-effectiveness analysis Does not restrict the use of the Oncotype DX test to patients whose risk is assessed by NPI Access to the Oncotype DX test where treatment is not clear based on conventional clinicopathologic measures NICE guidance DG10. http://guidance.nice.org.uk/dg10 Accessed 14 Jan 2014

Nottingham Prognostic Index The Nottingham Prognostic Index is calculated using the following formula: tumour size in cm x 0.2 + lymph-node stage (1, 2 or 3)* Excellent prognosis <=2.4 + histologic grade (1, 2 or 3) Good prognosis <=3.4 NPI Score Moderate prognosis >3.4 and <=5.4 Poor prognosis >5.4 Therefore a patient with: Tumour size= 2.1 Grade II Node Negative NPI = 3.42 (Eligible for the Oncotype DX test) NPI Score 5-year survival >/=2.0 to </=2.4 93% >2.4 to </=3.4 85% >3.4 to </=5.4 70% >5.4 50% *When only node negative patients are analysed the lymph-node stage is 1 for all cases. Galea MH et al. Br Ca Res & Treat 1992. 22:207-19

Which Patients may benefit from the Oncotype DX Assay? Clinical indication NICE guidance Use of the Oncotype DX breast cancer assay in the N+ setting validated for post-menopausal patients 1.NICE guidance DG10. http://guidance.nice.org.uk/dg10 Accessed 14 Jan 2014 ER: Oestrogen receptor HER2: Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2

How are Eligible Patients Defined according to NICE Guidance? According to NICE guidance DG10: Intermediate risk of distant recurrence being defined as an NPI score > 3.4, which can be calculated from information that is routinely collected about people with breast cancer Intermediate risk is not defined by Adjuvant! Other decision-making tools or protocols are also currently used in the NHS may also be used to identify people at intermediate risk In reality, in the ER+, N0 group, this may be Grade 1 tumours: >7cm Grade 2 tumours: Between 2cm and 12 cm Grade 3 tumours: <7cm NICE guidance DG10. http://guidance.nice.org.uk/dg10 Accessed 14 Jan 2014

Conclusions Recurrence Score results reflects individual tumour biology The Oncotype DX test quantitatively predicts the Risk of distant Recurrence and assesses the likely benefit of chemoendocrine therapy (Level IB Evidence) The risk of distant recurrence or chemotherapy benefit can't be accurately predicted by relying on clinical and pathological variables alone The Oncotype DX test is supported by the most substantial body of evidence as a prognosticator and is the only assay that has proved predictive of chemotherapy benefit Only assay incorporated into ASCO, NCCN, ESMO, St Gallen and NICE guidelines More than 450,000 patients tested to date worldwide, with more than 2,800 patients tested in the UK by June 2014 ASCO is a trademark of the American Society of Clinical Oncology and NCCN is a trademark of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network.
