Case: Maria

  • 35 yo white woman, has 2 children

ages 1 and 4. She started menstruating at age 11 and took birth control pills from age 19 to 26.

  • She recently had a biopsy for a breast

lump which was benign (cyst)

  • Her mother diagnosed BC at age 69
  • She is an advertising executive and

drinks 2-3 glasses of wine/night.

Department

  • f Medicine

Why risk assessment?

  • Breast cancer is most commonly diagnosed

cancer in U.S. women

– 1 in 8-9 women will be diagnosed in her lifetime

  • 2nd most common cause of cancer death in

women

– > 40,000 deaths in 2015

  • Risk assessment tools are available
  • Risk reduction is possible

Department

  • f Medicine

Risk factors for breast cancer

  • Strong

– Age – Breast density – Atypical hyperplasia – LCIS – BRCA mutation

  • Moderate

– Family history – Breast biopsy – Race / ethnicity – Hormone therapy – Hormone levels (E2, T, IGF-1) – Benign breast disease

  • Weak

– Age at first birth – Menarche age – Height, weight, BMI – Bone mineral density – NAF/Lavage – SNPs – Age of diagnosis for family history – 2nd degree relatives – Alcohol intake – Diabetes – Physical activity – Breast feeding – Menopause age

Factors Considered in The Gail Risk Model

  • Current age
  • Race / Ethnicity
  • Age at menarche
  • Age at first live birth
  • Number of 1° relatives with BC
  • Number of breast biopsies
  • Presence of ADH

Gail et al. J Natl Cancer Inst 81:1879; 1989.

Gail Model on NCI website

  • 5 year and lifetime estimates by race

Validated for populations; but modest discriminatory value for the individual.

The future of risk prediction

  • The combination of common SNPs are the

single most important risk factor not included in current models

– Each individual SNP contributes little information – 76 SNPs combined are more powerful than any other risk factor

  • Genetic testing is becoming less expensive

since the Supreme Court invalidated the patents

  • n BRCA1 and BRCA2

USPSTF Recommendation

  • “…clinicians engage in shared decision-making

with women at increased risk of breast cancer regarding medications to reduce their risk. For women who are at increased risk for breast cancer and at low risk for adverse medication effects, clinicians should offer to prescribe risk- reducing medications such as tamoxifen or raloxifene.”

  • “In general, women with an estimated 5-year

breast cancer risk of 3% or greater are more likely to benefit from tamoxifen or raloxifene”

Raloxifene vs. Tamoxifen

  • Pro raloxifene

– Equivalent reduction in IBC – Less thromboembolism, uterine cancer, and cataracts – Primary care comfort with therapy

  • Con raloxifene

– Less reduction in DCIS/LCIS: long-term follow- up concerns – Post-menopausal women only

Case

for her screening mammogram. A few days later, you get a call from the

  • radiologist. The mammogram shows

increased density and possibly a calcification on the right. The radiologist says they are reading it as a BIRADS 0 and the patient should get follow-up, could you please let her know?

MQSA: Mammography Quality Standards Act

  • Passed by U.S. Congress in 1992
  • Mammography facility must send patient written

report of her mammogram within 30 days of exam

  • Report must be in words she can easily

understand

  • For BIRADS 4 or 5 results, facility expected to

contact patient as soon as possible – ‘expectation’ within 5 days

  • If verbal contact, still need to send letter

Communication Matters

  • Adequate communication of abnormal

results improves receipt of appropriate follow-up

Poon et al, JGIM 2004

  • Minority women report lower rates of

adequate communication, and are less likely to know their abnormal mammogram results

Zapka et al, Prev Med 2004

  • Women who received their results verbally

(in person or over the telephone) more likely to know that their mammogram was abnormal

Delays in Diagnosis

  • 20-40% women undergoing breast ca

diagnosis experience delays to diagnosis or treatment

  • Delay of ≥ 3 months (symptoms to treatment)

associated with 12% lower 5-year survival – Most of this attributable to later stage disease

Richards et al, Lancet 1999

  • African-American women are more likely to

suffer delays than White women

Elmore et al, Med Care 2005

  • Hospitals disproportionately serving non-

English speaking and minority women have longer delays

Case: Gwen

  • You are seeing Gwen, a 50-year-old

Chinese-American woman, for her routine annual exam. She tells you about a new lump she found in her breast, which you feel and find to be firm with regular borders.

  • You send her for a diagnostic

mammogram which shows an area of calcification BIRADS 4 and next she undergoes a core biopsy.

Assay for estrogen, progesterone receptors and HER2

– Perform on core biopsy specimen – If negative on core specimen, should be repeated at definitive surgery:

  • up to 15% of cases with negative markers on biopsy

specimen will be positive on larger surgical specimen

Summary

Risk Reduction

  • Lifestyle

– Exercise, weight loss or maintenance – Minimize alcohol – Avoid/stop HT – Low fat diet?

  • Consider tamoxifen or raloxifene for high

risk women

  • Assess familial risk

– Refer to genetic counseling / high risk breast clinic

Department

Summary

Tests at Diagnosis

  • Delays in diagnosis are common after an

abnormal mammogram

  • Improved communication of abnormal results

improves receipt of appropriate follow-up

  • SLN biopsy can help avoid axillary dissection

and results can help determine need for chemo

  • OncoType DX can decrease recommendations

for chemotherapy by 50% in women with ER+, LN- disease
