Clinical Trial Summary

In clinically node-positive (cN+) breast cancer, preoperative systemic therapy (PST) is common. With increasing rates of complete tumour eradication, there is a need for de-escalation of locoregional treatment in the interest of decreased morbidity. In order to individually adapt postoperative therapies, axillary staging is crucial. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) comes at a high risk of arm morbidity. There is extreme divergence in the use of less extensive staging methods, i.e. targeted lymph node biopsy (TLNB), sentinel node biopsy (SNB) or both (TAD), and in the use of subsequent locoregional treatment, since prospective data are largely lacking. The main purpose of the European INDAX trial is to implement de-escalated staging and evaluate which regional treatment, individually adapted to the response after PST, is oncologically safe but least harmful. Population: cN+ breast cancer patients receiving PST, recruited 2021-2025. Staging by TLNB, TAD or SNB. Intervention: Negative staging (ypN0, Randomisation A, N=1433): no regional treatment. Positive staging (ypN+, Randomisation B, N=1513): no ALND but regional radiotherapy (rRT). Control: Randomisation A: rRT only. Randomisation B: ALND plus rRT. Outcome: Invasive disease-free survival (non-inferiority), arm morbidity and quality of life. Drug tests in whole-tumour organoid cultures, algorithm-based digital image analysis and gene expression analysis are performed to improve response prediction, facilitate tailoring of PST and increase eradication rates.
