| Scientific title | Post-operative avoidance of radiotherapy: biomarker selection of women categorised to be in a very low risk group by IHC4+C |
| Study acronym | PRIMETIME |
| Study hypothesis | The aim of this study is to test whether radiotherapy can be safely avoided in a patient population considered to have such a low risk of local recurrence that the potential absolute gain from radiotherapy is so small as to not outweigh the established risks associated with breast radiotherapy. |
| Ethics approval(s) | East of England – Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Research Ethics Committee, 05/09/2016, ref: 16/EE/0305 |
| Condition | Breast cancer |
| Intervention | Patients consent and register for pre-screening Ki67 research testing and 5 slides from the diagnostic block are forwarded for analysis to the central laboratory. Breast conserving surgery will proceed according to standard practice. If a patient is confirmed as eligible (meets inclusion and exclusion criteria) they will then be consented for the main PRIMETIME study. The IHC4+C calculator is then utilised to direct treatment according to the patient’s risk category (i.e. if they are deemed ‘very low risk’ they will be recommended to avoid radiotherapy). All patients will then receive either standard breast radiotherapy or no radiotherapy and standard adjuvant hormone therapy and any additional anti-cancer treatments. For patients who receive radiotherapy they will have 5 years of annual mammograms, for patients who do not receive radiotherapy they will be required to attend for 10 years of annual mammograms. Patients will be followed up for 10 years in clinic and thereafter via routine data sources. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Ipsilateral breast local relapse rate 5 years from study registration is assessed through patient note review. |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Ipsilateral breast local relapse rate is measured by patient note review 10 years from study registration 2. Regional relapse rate is measured by patient note reviewat 5 and 10 years 3. Distant relapse rate is measured by patient note review at 5 and 10 years 4. Overall survival is measured by patient note review at 5 and 10 years 5. Breast cancer specific survival is measured by patient note review at 5 and 10 years |

Eligibility
| Participant type(s) | Patient |
|---|---|
| Age group | Adult |
| Sex | Female |
| Target number of participants | Planned Sample Size: 2400; UK Sample Size: 2400 |
| Participant inclusion criteria | 1. Provision of written informed consent to participate in the PRIMETIME study 2. Provision of slides for research testing and availability of KI67 result (contact ICR-CTSU to confirm) 3. Women aged ≥60 years (younger patients are eligible if they are post-menopausal and have co-morbidities that imply a high risk of radiotherapy toxicity e.g. significant cardiovascular disease with left sided breast cancer) 4. Women having had breast conserving surgery with complete resection of tumour tissue (≥1 mm microscopic, circumferential margins of normal tissue from invasive cancer and DCIS) 5. AJCC staging of pT1/pN0/M0 (DCIS is allowed in combination with invasive breast cancer; isolated tumour cells in axillary nodes are allowed) 6. Histological confirmation of grade 1 or 2 invasive breast cancer 7. Oestrogen receptor (ER) positive according to local practice. The H score must be available. 8. Progesterone receptor (PR) positive according to local practice. The percentage positivity must be available. 9. Human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) negative according to local practice 10. Patients must be recommended for ≥5 years adjuvant endocrine therapy according to local policy and in the investigator’s opinion, deemed able to comply with the duration of treatment |
| Participant exclusion criteria | 1. Patients known to have lymphovascular space invasion and/or axillary nodal micrometastases or macrometastases. 2. Patients with a past history of malignancy excep: 2.1. Basal cell skin cancer and CIN cervix uteri 2.2.Treated, localised squamous cell carcinoma of the skin 2.3. Malignancies treated with curative intent and the patient has been disease free ≥5 years 3. Patients who have had an ipsilateral mastectomy 4. Patients who have received neoadjuvant therapy (endocrine or cytotoxic chemotherapy with therapeutic intent) or who are deemed by the MDT to require adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy 5. Patients with mammographically occult breast cancers, ie. present with lump, but not visible on mammogram |
