Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay
Use
The Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay is a genomic test that provides prognostic information to help physicians and breast cancer patients make informed treatment decisions. It is designed for post-menopausal patients with early-stage hormone-receptor positive and HER2-negative breast cancer. The assay helps determine the risk of cancer recurrence within the next 10 years when only anti-hormonal treatment is administered.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
The test is specifically indicated for hormone-receptor positive, HER2-negative breast cancer in post-menopausal women and may not be applicable to other breast cancer subtypes or male breast cancer. The risk scores and categories provided are based on genomic analysis of a 50-gene signature and should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical data. It does not predict response to specific chemotherapeutic agents.
