Results from the current survey show that patients' response to neoCTRT predicted by the multi-analyte IHC-based test has a significant influence on the decision-making process in the clinic. Nearly twice as many surgeons stated an intention to change strategy with the knowledge that the patient is likely to have extreme resistance to planned treatments than when one is a potential responder. The current survey study is limited by its 'intended use' nature, therefore does not reflect physicians' real action in the clinic upon implementation of this test. However, survey results strongly suggest that use of the IHC-based predictive test is of great interest to physicians, and would likely contribute to more individualized treatment for patients with distinct sensitivity to neoCTRT.
