Beschreibung: Abstract Background: Data on the oncologic safety of omission of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in node positive (N+) patients who downstage to ypN0 with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is sparse. Additionally, there is no consensus on which axillary staging procedure should be used in this setting, sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) alone or in combination with localization and retrieval of the clipped positive node, also known as targeted axillary dissection (TAD). Whether the reduction in the false negative rate observed with TAD translates into a significant reduction in the rate of axillary recurrence is unknown. We sought to evaluate oncologic outcomes after omission of ALND in a large, real-world cohort of breast cancer (BC) patients and to compare rates of axillary recurrence after SLNB with dual tracer mapping vs. TAD. Methods: Data were collected from 19 centers in the Oncoplastic Breast Consortium (OPBC) and EUBREAST networks. Patients with T1-4 biopsy-proven N1-3 BC who underwent NAC followed by axillary staging with either SLNB with dual tracer mapping or TAD and who were pathologically node negative (ypN0) were included. ypN0 was defined as the absence of any tumor or isolated tumor cells. Competing risk analysis was performed to assess the cumulative incidence rates of axillary recurrence, locoregional recurrence, and any invasive (locoregional or distant) recurrence. Two-year cumulative incidence rates were compared between TAD and SLNB using the Gray’s test. Type I error rate was set to 0.05 (α). Results: We included 785 patients (565 treated with SLNB and 220 with TAD) treated with NAC followed by surgery from 01/2014-12/2020. Median patient age was 50 years. The majority (57%) of patients had clinical T2 tumors, and 95% had N1 disease. Most (55%) were HER2+, and 21% were triple negative. Most patients (81%) received anthracycline and taxane-based chemotherapy regimens, but NAC regimens differed between patients treated with TAD and those treated with SLNB (Table 1). All patients with HER2+ tumors received anti HER2 therapy. Nodal radiotherapy was administered to 76% of patients, and was more common in patients who underwent TAD (82% TAD vs 74% SLNB, p=0.017). Breast pathologic complete response (ypT0/is) was more frequent among those patients that had TAD (80% TAD vs. 66% SLNB, p&lt; 0.001). TAD localization was with wire in 46%, radioactive seed in 40%, ultrasound in 5%, tattoo in 2%, and with a combination of these techniques in 7%. The clipped node was successfully retrieved in 94% of TAD cases. The median number of lymph nodes removed was lower in the TAD group compared to the SLNB group [3 (IQR 3-5) vs 4 IQR 3-5), p&lt; 0.001], as was the median number of sentinel lymph nodes [3 (IQR 2-4) vs 4 IQR 3-5), p&lt; 0.001] (Table 1). The 5-year rates of any axillary recurrence, locoregional recurrence, and any invasive recurrence in the entire cohort were 1.1% (95%CI 0.39-2.4%), 3.1% (95%CI 1.6-5.3%) and 10% (95%CI 7.6-13%), respectively. The two-year cumulative incidence of axillary recurrence did not differ between patients treated with TAD compared to SLNB (0% vs 0.9%, p=0.19). Conclusion: Early axillary recurrence after omission of ALND in patients who successfully downstage from N+ to ypN0 with NAC is a rare event following both SLNB or TAD, and was not significantly lower in TAD than SLNB. Although longer follow-up is needed to confirm these findings, the main advantage of TAD seems to be a reduction in the number of lymph nodes removed. Overall, these results support omission of ALND in patients who successfully downstage to node negative disease after NAC.
