Key clinical point: In patients with pT1aN0M0, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+) invasive breast cancer adding systemic therapy after surgical excision had clinical outcomes similar to local therapy alone.
Major finding: Overall survival was similar in all patients with pT1aN0M0 HER2-positive breast cancer who received local therapy+systemic therapy or only local therapy (P = .206), including the matched cohort of patients with hormone receptor positive (P = .107) and negative (P = .369) breast cancer.
Study details: This retrospective cohort study included 8948 patients with HER2+, pT1aN0M0 breast cancer, of which 4026 patients received local therapy only and 4922 patients received local therapy+adjuvant chemotherapy/HER2 therapy.
Disclosures: This study did not report any source of funding. CW Towe declared serving as consultant, providing expert testimony, and receiving research funding from several sources.
