New Data at SABCS 2020 Highlight the Role of the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score® Test in Shaping Clinical Practice
- Five-year outcomes from large, prospective phase III ADAPT study confirm value of the test to help guide treatment decisions in breast cancer patients with high clinical risk, including those with node-positive disease
- New meta-analysis of data from more than 10,000 patients with node-negative disease, including the results of TAILORx, supports the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score® test as the standard of care genomic test in early-stage, invasive breast cancer

Agendia, Inc., a world leader in precision oncology for breast cancer, presented data from the FOCUS trial that show the clinical utility of MammaPrint
The poster,
The 70-gene signature (MammaPrint) accurately predicts distant breast cancer recurrence risk in older patients, outlines data from the FOCUS trial, a population-based cohort of over 2,000 people that included all consecutive breast cancer patients over 65 years old diagnosed between 1997 and 2004 in the Comprehensive Cancer Center region West, the Netherlands. The purpose of the study was to assess the stratification of breast cancers by MammaPrint in women over 70 years of age.
Treating older breast cancer patients can be challenging, as they generally have more indolent tumors and a higher likelihood of developing additional conditions that negatively affect their health than younger patients. Current treatment guidelines recommend therapy

Results presented at the 2020 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium confirm the relevance of screening for HER2+ CTCs from blood samples in patients with a HER2 negative primary tumor biopsy to optimize treatment strategy and patient outcome
BOLOGNA, Italy and HUNTINGDON VALLEY, Pa., Dec. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ Menarini Silicon Biosystems, a pioneer of liquid biopsy technology, announced today new data from the DETECT study program. These data focused on women with HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) based on primary tumor biopsy, and HER2
+ CTCs. The results of this large program demonstrate that screening for HER2+ CTCs, in the blood samples of these patients, is an important tool to guide therapy decisions and improve patient outcomes. Furthermore, the randomized DETECT III phase III study, discussed in a poster spotlight session during the 2020 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, shows that adding reference HER2 targeted TKI (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) lapatinib t
