Comparison of Oncotype DX Recurrence Score by Histologic Types of Breast Carcinoma.

Conclusions .- Although the numbers are small, our findings raise further awareness of the significance between histologic type and grade, and RS in breast cancer. In some special histologic types of breast cancer, particularly those considered to follow either an excellent or poor clinical course by histology alone, it is unclear whether the ODXRS results are as meaningful as in carcinomas of no special type. Further investigation with higher numbers and outcome data is needed. PMID: 26619027 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
