Abstract PD10-06: Clinical behavior and outcomes of BRCA-mutated breast cancer in young patients according to type of BRCA mutation and hormone receptor status: Results from an international cohort study

Background: Young breast cancer patients (pts) carrying a germline BRCA mutation (mBRCA) have similar outcomes as non-carriers. However, there is currently lack of evidence regarding the impact of mBRCA type and hormone receptor status on clinical behavior and outcomes of mBRCA breast cancer. We aim to address these questions in the largest dataset to date of young mBRCA breast cancer pts. Methods: This was an international, multicenter, hospital-based, retrospective cohort study. Women harboring deleterious germline mBRCA1 or mBRCA2 that received a diagnosis of stage I-III invasive early breast cancer at age ≤40 years between January 2000 and December 2012 were included. Baseline pts, tumor, and treatment characteristics, pattern and risk over time of disease-free survival (DFS) events, and survival outcomes (DFS, distant recurrence-free interval [DRFI] and overall survival [OS]) were compared between mBRCA1 and mBRCA2 pts overall and by hormone receptor status. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used to compare hazard rates (HRs). Results: 1,236 young mBRCA breast cancer pts were included. Among 808 and 428 pts with mBRCA1 or mBRCA2, respectively, 191 (23.6%) and 356 (83.2%) had hormone receptor-positive tumors while 617 (76.4%) and 72 (16.8%) hormone receptor-negative disease (p Conclusions: In this large unique dataset, young mBRCA1 breast cancer pts had worse DFS than those with mBRCA2 mostly due to higher rates of second primary malignancies. Hormone receptor positivity had no positive prognostic value in young mBRCA breast cancer pts with a trend towards worse DRFI in those with hormone receptor-negative disease. These results provide important information for counseling young mBRCA breast cancer pts regarding treatment, prevention and follow-up care strategies.
