Giuliano Pre-SSO mins ASCO Z mins ACOSOG Z0011: A Randomized Trial of Axillary Node Dissection in Women with Clinical T1-2 N0 M0 Breast Cancer who have a Positive Sentinel Node Giuliano AE, McCall L, Beitsch PD, Whitworth PW, Blumencranz PW, Leitch AM, Saha S, Hunt K, Morrow M, Ballman KV 1
2
Sentinel Lymph Node Dissection (SLND) for Breast Cancer
SLND has replaced axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) for histopathologically node-negative women Numerous studies have demonstrated its staging efficacy and safety ALND remains the gold standard for node-positive women ALND more morbidity than SLND
3
Contemporary Breast Cancer
ASCO Z mins Contemporary Breast Cancer Tumors are smaller than in past Fewer node-positive patients Sentinel node (SN) often only node involved (40-70%) BCT common – tangential field irradiation treats much of axilla Adjuvant systemic therapy usually given for node-positive women

Hypothesis: SLND alone achieves similar locoregional control and survival as Level I and II ALND for H&E SN node-positive women.

Locoregional Recurrence-Free Survival
Summary Locoregional Recurrence-Free Survival Locoregional recurrence in only 2.8% of SLND and 4.1% of ALND patients. Only age (< 50) and higher Bloom-Richardson score were associated with locoregional recurrence by multivariable analysis. Neither number of positive SN, size of SN metastasis, nor number of lymph nodes removed was associated with locoregional recurrence.
30
Disease-Free and Overall Survival
Summary Disease-Free and Overall Survival No significant difference in DFS between patients treated with SLND (83.9%) or ALND (82.2%) No significant difference in OS between patients treated with SLND (92.5%) or ALND (91.8%) Only older age, ER-, and lack of adjuvant systemic therapy - not operation - were associated with worse OS by multivariable analysis.

This study does not support the routine use of ALND in early nodal metastatic breast cancer. The role of this operation should be reconsidered.
