From: Germline breast cancer susceptibility gene mutations and breast cancer outcomes

End Point

Adjusted Hazard Ratio* (95% CI)

P-value

Breast cancer recurrence or death

3.04 (1.40–6.58)

0.005

Locoregional or distant recurrence

2.70 (1.20–6.06)

0.016

Distant recurrence

2.86 (1.11–7.35)

0.029

Death

  1. *The hazard ratios were calculated using multivariate Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for tumor size, lymph node status, triple negative status, age of breast cancer onset, surgery type, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and hormonal therapy
