Prospective, multicenter French study evaluating the clinical impact of the Breast Cancer Intrinsic Subtype-Prosigna® Test in the management of early-stage breast cancers

The results of this prospective decision impact study are consistent with 2 previous, identically designed studies carried out in Spain and Germany. The availability of Prosigna test results increased the confidence of treating physicians in their adjuvant treatment decisions, and led to an 18% change in chemotherapy treatment plan (from Adjuvant Chemotherapy to No Adjuvant Chemotherapy or vice versa). Prosigna testing decreased anxiety and improved measures of health-related quality of life in patients facing adjuvant therapy. The 25% discordance between Prosigna test and IHC subtyping underlines the importance of molecular testing for optimal systemic therapy indications in early breast cancer.
