Background: There is increasing reliance on data provided by genomic risk assessment assays to guide therapeutic decisions. The objective of this prospective study was to assess the impact of the Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay on radiation treatment recommendations in patients with DCIS undergoing BCS. Methods: This decision impact study is a prospectively enrolled observational study of newly diagnosed patients (n = 135) following BCS for removal of DCIS of all grades 30mm or less with clear margins (i.e. 2 mm or normal re-excised margins). Only patients who were candidates to receive radiation therapy were considered. Fifteen patients withdrew from the study or had insufficient volume of DCIS for assay analysis. Radiation Oncologists were blinded to the Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay prior to recording their recommendation for radiotherapy or not. IRB approval was granted following review of study protocol and informed consent was obtained from all patients. Results: Among 120 patients tested, the Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay determined that 58/120 (48.3%) of patients had a low score (LS) (0-38), 30/120 (25%) had an intermediate score (IS) (39-54) and 32/120 (26.7%) had a high score (HS) (>55). The Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay concurred with the Radiation Oncologists recommendation to proceed with radiation treatment in 96.7% of patients (i.e. 60/62 patients with an IS or HS). The Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay altered treatment decisions in 12.5% (4/32) of patients with a HS and in 7.1% (2/28) patient with an IS. In patients where the Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay altered treatment recommendation all had a low volume (i.e. less than 10mm) of high/intermediate grade DCIS with an IS or HS. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that Oncotype DX Breast DCIS Score assay accurately supports the selection of patients with DCIS for radiation treatment and equally can be helpful in selecting a subgroup of patients with small volumes of intermediate/high grade DCIS who can potentially avoid radiotherapy.
