Description
PR (Progesterone Receptor) Summary is a summary of results from the progesterone receptor (PR) assay.
Rationale
This data item is required for prognostic stage grouping in AJCC 8th edition, Chapter 48, _Breast_. It was previously collected as Breast CS SSF # 2.
Codes
0 PR negative (0.0% or less than 1%)
1 PR positive
7 Test ordered, results not in chart
9 Not documented in medical record Cannot be determined (indeterminate) PR (Progesterone Receptor) Summary status not assessed or unknown if assessed
Code Notes
Note 1: Physician statement of PR (Progesterone Receptor) Summary status can be used to code this data item when no other information is available. Note 2: The result of the PR test performed on the primary breast tissue is to be recorded in this data item. Note 3: Results from nodal or metastatic tissue may be used ONLY when there is no evidence of primary tumor. Note 4: In cases where PR is reported on more than one breast tumor specimen, record the highest value. If any sample is positive, record as positive. •    Exception: If PR is positive on an in situ specimen and PR is negative on all tested invasive specimens, code PR as negative (code 0). Note 5: If neoadjuvant therapy is given, record the assay from tumor specimens prior to neoadjuvant therapy.   • If neoadjuvant therapy is given and there are no PR results from pre-treatment specimens, report the findings from post-treatment specimens. Note 6: If the patient is PR positive and node negative, a multigene test such as Oncotype Dx may be performed, in which case another PR test will be performed. Do not record the results of that test in this field.   • Record only the results of the test which made the patient eligible to be given the multigene test.   Each Site-Specific Data Item (SSDI) applies only to selected primary sites, histologies, and years of diagnosis. Depending on applicability and standard-setter requirements, SSDIs may be left blank.
