Prospective Cohort Study of Local Recurrence After Radical Breast Cancer Resection
Sponsor: The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to analyze clinicopathological characteristics and identify independent prognostic risk factors, as well as compare treatment outcomes in female patients aged ≥18 years with pathologically confirmed local recurrence of breast cancer after radical surgery (breast-conserving surgery or total mastectomy) without distant metastasis. The main questions it aims to answer are: What clinical and pathological factors independently affect progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients with postoperative local recurrence? Do clinical features and long-term prognosis differ between patients with local recurrence after breast-conserving surgery and those after total mastectomy? Can we identify optimal individualized treatment regimens and suitable populations for re-breast-conserving surgery and postoperative radiotherapy after R0 resection? Participants will: Provide complete baseline demographic, initial clinicopathological, primary surgical and adjuvant treatment data, local recurrence lesion characteristics and post-recurrence treatment information via standardized case report forms; Undergo routine clinical examinations, imaging reviews and pathological rechecks as standard clinical practice; Receive standardized follow-up for at least 3 years through outpatient visits supplemented by telephone/WeChat contact to record disease progression, secondary local recurrence, distant metastasis, all-cause death and treatment adverse events.

Conditions
Interventions
Individualized therapy
This is a non-interventional prospective cohort study. No experimental treatments are provided by researchers. All therapeutic interventions are standard salvage therapies formulated by the hospital MDT team following official breast cancer guidelines, including salvage reoperation, postoperative radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy and anti-HER2 targeted therapy. The study only retrospectively collects and compares routine clinical treatment data to explore their associations with patients' survival outcomes, and will not adjust or allocate any treatment plans for participants.
