Summary
This study looked at how a special tumor test, called the 21 gene Recurrence Score (OncotypeDx), affects whether doctors recommend chemotherapy for women with a common type of early-stage breast cancer. Researchers tracked 87 patients in Ireland to see if the test results changed treatment plans. The goal was to understand if the test helps avoid unnecessary chemotherapy.
