Breast Cancer with Low Recurrence Score on Oncotype DX
Article in Oncology and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe 21-gene recurrence score assay Oncotype DX
methodsHere, we describe a small cohort of 16 patients from our center who, despite a low recurrence score (RS) ≤ 20, suffered from early disease recurrence. Clinical parameters of our cohort of patients were compared to a cohort from the general population of Clalit Health Service (CHS).
resultsMedian age at diagnosis in our cohort was significantly younger. BRCA mutational status was available in 14 patients in our cohort. A high percentage of these patients had BRCA1/2 mutations (35.7%), either germline (in 3) or somatic (in 2). Half of our cohort was diagnosed with lobular carcinoma (ILC) relative to 10-15% in the general population of BC (p = 0.02). The median time to recurrence was 44 months.
conclusionBRCA1/2 mutation and ILC are highly represented in this cohort. Although our cohort is small, these data may suggest that a RS ≤ 20 in these subgroups may not reflect a low risk of recurrence.
