Oncotype scores pre menopause ladies

Going through breast cancer treatment Chemotherapy
1

Post surgery my results came back as follows:

13mm grade 2, invasive ductal carcinoma with associated vascular invasion, high grade DCIS, whole IDC tumour element size 13mm, all margins clear, 1/2 lymph nodes micromet postive, ER 8, PR 8, HER2 negative, NPI 4.26, pT1c pN1a (MI)

I am awaiting Oncotype to influence chemo decision on proposed treatment plan.

Anyone similar diagnosis share there results to help me understand and prepare for my Appointment on Wednesday. I’m not worried. More concerned if chemo isnt offered given the minor node involvement and LVI.

I appreciate everyone’s genetics are different.

I’m age 46 and pre menopause.

Thanks x

I’m 36 (35 at diagnosis)

Tumour was 22mm IDC with surrounding DCIS taking total area to 36mm. Some LVI (was told this isn’t really relevant as they don’t make treatment decisions based on it) but no lymph node involvement.

Oncotype 23, and I’m on chemo now. I think for my age and stats, the oncotype would have had to be under 20 to not be offered chemo and if it had been over 25 I’d have had a more aggressive chemo.

Morning :growing_heart: mine is a grade 3, 13mm tumor hormone positive/her2 negative and I’m 34 years old. They’ve decided to not send mine off for oncotype testing as they deem it a benefit because of my age. I’m getting the official results today so will find out more :growing_heart:
