The Netherlands
• Increase incidence breast cancer 2005-2025 18%
• 40-50% of these patients are 65 years and older
• 50-75% has comorbidity of any kind
• No internationally agreed recommendations
• Lack of clinical trial data
• Uncertainty treatment toxicity and benefits
• Interaction between therapy and comorbidity
• Competing risks of death
• New pathological and molecular variables
associated with outcome and response to therapy
• Lack of assessment tools to identify at-risk and frail elders in oncology
FOCUS
Giordano et al. JCO2005;4:783-91
Several cohort studies
• Less aggressive therapy (corrected stage)
• Strongly decreased survival
(not only explained by therapy)
• Stage at diagnosis higher
• Tumor biology: increased hormone receptor
positive, less Her2/neu overexpression,
lower grades, lower proliferative indices
Life expectancy is central issue
However
-Variability within age group is large
(individualized treatment)
- Comorbidity
Risks / benefits treatment
FOCUS
In conclusion
• Increasing incidence of breast cancer in elderly
However:
• Limited data
• No guidelines for individualized treatment
Female breast cancer in the elderly; Optimizing clinical
guidelines using clinico-pathological and molecular data

BCT vs Mastectomy
EORTC 10854
Perioperative chemotherapy
EORTC 22881
TEAM data
FOCUS
Pooled dataset
n=5500 (>65 years)
Trial data
1.Comparison of characteristics between the young and the elderly patients
Selection of the elderly
2. Multivariate analysis Survival (OS, DSS, DFS)
3. Risk factors for the elderly
- Morbidity
- Frequency of Adverse Events
- Treatment withdrawal
4. Age stratified analysis (65-74; 75-84 and 85 and older) within the elderly
patients (age-dependent prediction model)
FOCUS
Three parts
FOCUS
Gene expression analyis
• Recent studies no inclusion of elderly
Relevance of the signatures in elderly patients are unknown
• Which factors are significantly different between young and elderly
patients
• Are there different activated pathways in young vs. elderly breast
cancer patients
• Validate existing and/or find new prognostic/predictive factors for
elderly breast cancer patients
FOCUS
Central dogma of molecular biology
• DNA in nucleus
• Genes and non-coding
regions
• Gene: Introns and exons
• Transcriptie DNA  RNA
 Poly A tail, cap and
splicing  mRNA
• mRNA translated into
protein in cytoplasm
FOCUS
Methods
DNA SNP array
• Infinium SNP array Illumina
mRNA Expression array
 Human WG6 expression array Illumina
Protein Immunohistochemical staining on Tissue Micro Array
(TMA)
FOCUS
Three parts
Prospective study
FOCUS
Prospective study
Combination of all data
* Molecular data
* Trial data
* Data from cohorts
Risk model
- Recurrent disease
- (Breast cancer related) death
- Adverse events
- Patient and tumor characteristics
Evidence based, high quality care
Tailored treatment guidelines
