Abstract

Background: The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy is unclear in women aged 70+ with breast cancer. Oncotype DX is a genomic test predicting recurrence risk for women with early oestrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative, lymph node-negative cancers, for whom chemotherapy side effects may not outweigh the benefits. This study investigated Oncotype DX testing and chemotherapy in women aged 70+, in whom the test is not yet validated.
