NAUTILUS-04: No Axillary Surgical Treatment in Low-Risk Clinically Node-Negative Breast Cancer Without Whole-Breast Radiotherapy (NAUTILUS-04)

4. oktober 2026 oppdatert av: Wonshik Han

A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Non-Inferiority Trial of No Axillary Surgical Treatment in Low-Risk Clinically Node-Negative Breast Cancer Without Whole-Breast Radiotherapy

The safety of omitting sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been established only in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery with whole-breast radiotherapy, as demonstrated in the prior randomized trials. Whether SLNB can be omitted in patients who will not receive whole-breast radiotherapy remains unknown, despite the parallel expansion of radiotherapy de-escalation in low-risk populations.

NAUTILUS-04 is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, phase III non-inferiority trial evaluating the oncologic safety of SLNB omission in postmenopausal patients with low-risk, clinically node-negative breast cancer who are not planned to receive whole-breast radiotherapy.

Eligible patients are postmenopausal women aged 55 years or older with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative invasive breast cancer, clinical T1-2 and clinically node-negative disease confirmed by physical examination and axillary ultrasound, without neoadjuvant systemic therapy. Patients must be planned for one of three local treatments: breast-conserving surgery without radiotherapy, breast-conserving surgery with accelerated partial breast irradiation, or mastectomy without radiotherapy.

A total of 1,520 patients will be randomized 1:1 to SLNB or no axillary surgery, stratified by planned breast surgery (breast-conserving surgery versus mastectomy) and age (55-64 versus 65 years or older). The primary endpoint is 5-year invasive disease-free survival. Secondary endpoints include 5-year axillary recurrence-free survival, distant recurrence-free survival, overall survival, and quality of life assessed by the EORTC QLQ questionnaire.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: SLN omission group

No axillary surgery

Planned breast surgery is performed without any axillary surgical procedure. Neither sentinel lymph node biopsy nor axillary lymph node dissection is performed. Adjuvant treatment decisions are made without pathologic nodal information

Aktiv komparator: SLN group

Sentinel lymph node biopsy

Sentinel lymph node biopsy is performed at the time of planned breast surgery. Subsequent axillary management and adjuvant treatment decisions follow institutional standard practice based on the pathologic nodal findings.

Invasive disease free survival
Tidsramme: 5 years after randomization

Invasive disease-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of invasive ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence, local or regional invasive recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral invasive breast cancer, second primary invasive cancer, or death from any cause, according to the STEEP criteria.

Description: Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.

Tidsramme: 5 years from randomization

Distant disease-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of distant recurrence or death from any cause, according to the STEEP criteria.

Axillary recurrence
Tidsramme: 5 years from randomization

Axillary recurrence is defined as histologically or cytologically confirmed recurrence in the ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes, occurring as a first event or concurrently with other recurrence sites.

5 years from randomization
Health-related quality of life
Tidsramme: Before surgery, and 1 and 2 years after surgery

Health-related quality of life assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-BR23 questionnaires. Scores are linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale. Higher scores on functional scales indicate better functioning, whereas higher scores on symptom scales indicate greater symptom burden.
