    Objective To determine if clinicopathologic (CP) factors could identify patients at “very low” and/or “very high” pretest probability of a high Oncotype DX (ODX) score. Methods A retrospective analysis of all patients that had ODX testing 2008‐2018 at a single institution. Results Of 215 patients, all 16 (7.4%) with “all high” risk CP factors had high ODX scores, and all 45 (20.9%) over age 50 with “all low” risk CP factors had ODX recommendations for no chemotherapy. Conclusions Oncotype DX results did not change chemotherapy recommendations in those with “very low” or “very high” pretest probability of high ODX scores.
