ABSTRACT: Introduction
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common type of cancer in premenopausal women with germline TP53 pathogenic variants (mTP53) (Li Fraumeni syndrome - LFS). However, little is known about the BC prognosis in these patients. This study analyzed the BC-related oncologic outcomes of patients with LFS.Methods
We evaluated a cohort of LFS patients with BC in comparison with a control cohort of BC patients with no pathogenic variant in a hereditary cancer panel. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS). Due to the risk of second malignancies in LFS, only locoregional and distant recurrences were considered events for RFS. Secondary endpoints included rates of contralateral BC, overall survival (OS), and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS).Results
