    Abstract The evolution of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) management has been driven by a parallel evolution in our understanding of its natural history. Early trials established the benefit of adjuvant therapies in all patients with DCIS. In contrast, subsequent studies have stratified patients to determine their eligibility for progressively less invasive and less intensive therapies. Large, randomized trials and meta-analyses have supported this shift away from treating DCIS as an homogenous disease treated with similar intensity to invasive breast cancer. This review describes the landmark studies on which current DCIS management is based.

    Abstract Objectives: To assess the performance bias caused by sampling data into training and test sets in a mammography radiomics study.
    Methods: Mammograms from 700 women were used to study upstaging of ductal carcinoma in situ. The dataset was repeatedly shuffled and split into training (n = 400) and test cases (n = 300) forty times. For each split, cross-validation was used for training, followed by an assessment of the test set. Logistic regression with regularization and support vector machine were used as the machine learning classifiers. For each split and classifier type, multiple models were created based on radiomics and/or clinical features.
    Results: Area under the curve (AUC) performances varied considerably across the different data splits (e.g., radiomics regression model: train 0.58-0.70, test 0.59-0.73). Performances for regression models showed a tradeoff where better training led to worse testing and vice versa. Cross-validation over all cases reduced this variability, but required samples of 500+ cases to yield representative estimates of performance.
    Conclusions: In medical imaging, clinical datasets are often limited to relatively small size. Models built from different training sets may not be representative of the whole dataset. Depending on the selected data split and model, performance bias could lead to inappropriate conclusions that might influence the clinical significance of the findings.
    Advances in knowledge: Performance bias can result from model testing when using limited datasets. Optimal strategies for test set selection should be developed to ensure study conclusions are appropriate.

    Abstract DCIS represents a heterogeneous disease with a wide range of outcomes according to biology. Without treatment, it is estimated that only 20-30% of DCIS will progress to invasive cancer. Long-term outcomes following treatment are at least as favorable as those for some other early stage cancer types such as prostate cancer, for which active surveillance is routinely offered as a standard of care option. However, active surveillance has not yet been tested in relation to DCIS. Worldwide, there are three international trials (LORIS, COMET, LORD) which are evaluating whether DCIS with favorable biologic features may be managed with close monitoring, with treatment only undertaken upon disease progression. These trials will determine whether there may be some women with low-risk DCIS who do not substantially benefit from treatment and who could thus be safely managed with close surveillance. If active monitoring for DCIS is deemed to be safe and feasible, additional work must be done to optimally implement this approach, involving effective communication between patients and their physicians about the risks and benefits of treatment versus surveillance. Importantly, these treatment decisions must take into account patient factors such as risk tolerance, age, and competing causes of mortality. Tailoring treatment to biology for early screen-detected cancers such as DCIS is an important goal of ongoing research. An improved understanding of the biology and clinical implications of this heterogeneous disease will improve the overall health and quality of life for hundreds of thousands of future women who will be diagnosed with DCIS.

    Abstract Purpose: We sought to assess survival outcomes of patients with de novo metastatic breast cancer (dnMBC) who did not receive treatment irrespective of the reason.
    Methods: Adults with dnMBC were selected from the NCDB (2010-2016) and stratified based on receipt of treatment (treated = received at least one treatment and untreated = received no treatments). Overall survival (OS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and groups were compared. Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify factors associated with OS.
    Results: Of the 53,240 patients with dnMBC, 92.1% received at least one treatment (treated), and 7.9% had no documented treatments, irrespective of the reason (untreated). Untreated patients were more likely to be older (median 68 y vs 61 y, p < 0.001), have higher comorbidity scores (p < 0.001), have triple-negative disease (17.8% vs 12.6%), and a higher disease burden (≥ 2 metastatic sites: 38.2% untreated vs 29.2% treated, p < 0.001). The median unadjusted OS in the untreated subgroup was 2.5 mo versus 36.4 mo in the treated subgroup (p < 0.001). After adjustment, variables associated with a worse OS in the untreated cohort included older age, higher comorbidity scores, higher tumor grade, and triple-negative (vs HR + /HER2-) subtype (all p < 0.05), while the number of metastatic sites was not associated with survival.
    Conclusions: Patients with dnMBC who do not receive treatment are more likely to be older, present with comorbid conditions, and have clinically aggressive disease. Similar to those who do receive treatment, survival in an untreated population is associated with select patient and disease characteristics. However, the prognosis for untreated dnMBC is dismal.

    Abstract Breast cancer is a significant global health concern affecting millions of women each year. Digital health platforms are an easily accessible intervention that can improve patient care, though their efficacy in breast cancer care is unknown. This scoping review aims to provide an overview of existing research on the utilization of digital health platforms for breast cancer care and identify key trends and gaps in the literature. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across electronic databases, including Ovid MEDLINE, Elsevier EMBASE, and Elsevier Scopus databases. The search strategy incorporated keywords related to "digital health platforms", "breast cancer care", and associated terminologies. After screening for eligibility, a total of 25 articles were included in this scoping review. The identified studies comprised mobile applications and web-based interventions. These platforms demonstrated various functionalities, including patient education, symptom monitoring, treatment adherence, and psychosocial support. The findings indicate the potential of digital health platforms in improving breast cancer care and patients' overall experiences. The positive impact on patient outcomes, including improved quality of life and reduced psychological distress, underscores the importance of incorporating digital health solutions into breast cancer management. Additional research is necessary to validate the effectiveness of these platforms in diverse patient populations and assess their impact on healthcare-resource utilization.
