NOTE: Association of clinical and pathology characteristics and the continuous RS with distant recurrence risk after 5 years in patients with higher ESR1 expression (ESR1 > 9.1) in B-28, in univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models.

Abbreviations: AC→P, doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide followed by paclitaxel; HR, hazard ratio; NSABP, National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project; RS, recurrence score.

*

Age, tumor size, grade, treatment, and surgery type were not statistically significant in the multivariable models. Similar results were seen for the RS when adjusted for only the significant independent predictors.

Based on Cox proportional hazards models of distant recurrence after 5 years in patients with higher ESR1 expression. P values are from likelihood ratio tests; CIs use the Wald method.

RS hazard ratio presented for a 50-point difference.
