Chemotherapy and gene expression profiling in older early luminal breast cancer patients: An International Society of Geriatric Oncology systematic review. Eur J Cancer 2022; 172:158-170.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The benefit of chemotherapy for older patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early breast cancer (EBC) is a key area of debate. Gene expression profiling (GEP) may identify patients deriving benefit, but their predictive role has not been established for older adults. We summarise evidence on efficacy, safety, and quality-of-life impacts of chemotherapy and on GEP use and impact in older HR-positive, HER2-negative EBC patients. METHODS We conducted a literature search of PubMed and Embase on publications describing prospective studies evaluating chemotherapy in older adults with HR-positive, HER2-negative EBC and on publications describing retrospective and prospective studies evaluating GEP in older adults. RESULTS Eight publications on chemotherapy use, including 2,035 older patients with EBC were selected. Only one trial evaluated chemotherapy survival benefits in older adults, showing no benefit. Of four studies comparing different regimens, only one showed the superiority of taxanes versus anthracyclines alone. Those investigating alternative regimens did not show improvements over standard regimens despite significant limitations. Five publications on GEP, including 445,323 older patients, were included and investigated Oncotype DX. Limited evidence shows that GEP aids treatment decisions in this population. GEP was offered less frequently to older versus younger patients. Higher Recurrence Score was prognostic for distant recurrence, but chemotherapy did not improve prognosis. CONCLUSIONS In older patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative, chemotherapy survival benefits EBC are unclear and GEP is less used. Although its prognostic role is well established, its predictive role remains unknown.

Abstract
Age is one of the most important risk factors for the development of breast cancer. Nearly a third of all breast cancer cases occur in older women (aged ≥70 years), with most cases being oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+). Such tumours are often indolent and unlikely to be the ultimate cause of death for older women, particularly when considering other comorbidities. This Review focuses on unique clinical considerations for screening, detection, and treatment regimens for older women who develop ER+ breast cancers-specifically, we focus on recent trends for de-implementation of screening, staging, surgery, and adjuvant therapies along the continuum of care. Additionally, we also review emerging basic and translational research that will further uncover the unique underlying biology of these tumours, which develop in the context of systemic age-related inflammation and changing hormone profiles. With prevailing trends of clinical de-implementation, new insights into mechanistic biology might provide an opportunity for precision medicine approaches to treat patients with well tolerated, low-toxicity agents to extend patients' lives with a higher quality of life, prevent tumour recurrences, and reduce cancer-related burdens.
