Trial Outcomes & Findings for Hormone Therapy With or Without Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Women Who Have Undergone Surgery for Node-Negative Breast Cancer (The TAILORx Trial) (NCT NCT00310180)

NCT ID: NCT00310180

Last Updated: 2025-11-13

Results Overview

Disease-free survival (DFS) is defined to be time from randomization to first event, where the first event is any of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence, local recurrence, regional recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral second primary invasive cancer, second primary non-breast invasive cancer (excluding non-melanoma skin cancers), or death without evidence of recurrence. The distribution of DFS (eg, 5-year DFS rate) is estimated using Kaplan-Meier method, and compared between the two randomized arms (arm B vs. arm C) using stratified log rank test and stratified Cox proportional hazard model.

Participant Flow

This study was activated on April 7, 2006 and closed to registrations on October 6, 2010. A total of 11,232 patients were preregistered for Recurrence Score evaluation and 10,273 proceeded to register on the study.

Patients needed to be preregistered to the trial for ONCOTYPE recurrence score test, patients then were assigned or randomized to one of the four arms based on the recurrence score.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed at 10 years after study entry

Population: Outcome will never be analyzed.

Adjuvant! is not currently available; additional work combining classical information with genomic tests will be reported separately.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed every 6 months within 5 years from registration and then annually up to 20 years

Disease-free survival (DFS) is defined to be time from randomization to first event, where the first event is any of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence, local recurrence, regional recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral second primary invasive cancer, second primary non-breast invasive cancer (excluding non-melanoma skin cancers), or death without evidence of recurrence. The distribution of DFS (eg, 5-year DFS rate) is estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. 5-year DFS by individual RS gene groups (Proliferation Gene Group, HER2 Gene Group, ER Gene Group, Invasion Gene Group, and Other Genes) will be estimated in each arm.
