The recurrence score based on the 21-gene breast-cancer assay has been clinically useful in predicting a chemotherapy benefit hormone-receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, axillary lymph-node-negative breast cancer. In women with positive lymph-node disease, role of respect to adjuvant is unclear.In prospective trial, we randomly assigned HER2-negative cancer, one three lymph nodes, and 25 or lower (scores range from 0 100, higher scores indicating...

Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) benefits some patients with triple-negative breast cancer, but what distinguishes responders from non-responders is unclear 1 . Because ICB targets cell–cell interactions 2 , we investigated the impact of multicellular spatial organization on response, and explored how remodels tumour microenvironment. We show that cell phenotype, activation state location are intimately linked, influence effect differ in sensitive versus resistant tumours early...

Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor with antiangiogenic/antiproliferative activity. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase IIB trial assessed sorafenib capecitabine for locally advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -negative breast cancer.Patients were randomly assigned to first- second-line 1,000 mg/m(2) orally twice day days 1 14 of every 21-day cycle 400 mg placebo. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS).In total, 229...

Abstract Background: Triple negative breast cancers of high proliferation or grade are a subgroup characterized by very poor prognosis, rapid progression to metastatic stage and onset resistance chemotherapy after initial response. As whole, triple cancer (TNBC) represents specific area medical need, in which new therapeutic approaches deserve appropriate test. Retrospective data showed that subset patients have an ongoing immune response within the tumor microenvironment, PD-L1 expression...

Abstract Background Identification of HER2-positive breast cancers with high anti-HER2 sensitivity could help de-escalate chemotherapy. Here, we tested a clinically applicable RNA-based assay that combines ERBB2 and the HER2-enriched (HER2-E) intrinsic subtype in disease treated dual HER2-blockade without Methods A research-based PAM50 was applied 422 tumors from five II–III clinical trials (SOLTI-PAMELA, TBCRC023, TBCRC006, PER-ELISA, EGF104090). In SOLTI-PAMELA, all patients had early were...

Studies of neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens using anthracyclines followed by taxanes have reported a doubling pathological complete remission (pCR) rates compared with anthracycline-based alone. A reverse sequence did not reduce activity. Nab-paclitaxel is an albumin-bound nanoparticle paclitaxel that allows for safe infusion without premedication, and its use led to significantly higher rate pCR in the GeparSepto trial.To determine whether nab-paclitaxel improves outcomes early locally...

Palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) is the standard treatment of hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, its efficacy has not been compared with that chemotherapy in a phase III trial.PEARL multicentre, randomised study which patients aromatase inhibitor (AI)-resistant MBC were included two consecutive cohorts. In cohort 1, 1 : to palbociclib exemestane or capecitabine. On discovering new evidence about...

To assess palbociclib in combination with trastuzumab or without endocrine therapy patients HER2-positive advanced breast cancer.PATRICIA is a prospective, open-label, multicenter phase II trial. Patients had received 2-4 prior lines of anti-HER2-based regimens. Treatment consisted 200 mg daily for 2 weeks and 1 week off plus trastuzumab. The study was based on Simon two-stage design comprising three cohorts: estrogen receptor (ER)-negative (cohort A), ER-positive B1), letrozole B2). were...

The HER2-enriched (HER2-E) subtype within HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer is highly addicted to the HER2 pathway. However, ∼20-60% of HER2+/HER2-E tumors do not achieve a complete response following anti-HER2 therapies. Here we evaluate gene expression data before, during and after neoadjuvant treatment with lapatinib trastuzumab in PAMELA trial cell lines. Our results reveal that dual blockade HER2-E disease induces low-proliferative Luminal A phenotype both patient's vitro models....

Abstract The mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in triple negative breast cancer remain unclear, and so, new molecules which might mediate this could optimize treatment response. Here we analyzed the involvement miRNA-449 family response to doxorubicin. cell viability, cell-cycle phases, expression silico target genes proteins sensitive/resistant lines were evaluated doxorubicin after gain/loss miRNAs-449 function achieved by transient transfection. Triple patients selected for ex vivo...

Anti-HER2 therapies have markedly improved prognosis of HER2-positive breast cancer. However, different mechanisms play a role in treatment resistance. Here, we identified AXL overexpression as an essential mechanism trastuzumab orchestrates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and heterodimerizes with HER2, leading to activation PI3K/AKT MAPK pathways ligand-independent manner. Genetic depletion pharmacological inhibition restored response vitro vivo. inhibitor plus achieved complete...

Abstract Purpose: In hormone receptor–positive (HR+)/HER2− metastatic breast cancer (MBC), it is imperative to identify patients who respond poorly cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) and discover therapeutic targets reverse this resistance. Non-luminal subtype high levels of CCNE1 are candidate biomarkers in setting, but further validation needed. Experimental Design: We performed mRNA gene expression profiling correlation with progression-free survival (PFS) on 455 tumor...

Abstract Background The variability in responses to neoadjuvant treatment with anti-HER2 antibodies prompts personalized clinical management and the development of innovative strategies. Tumor-infiltrating Natural Killer (TI-NK) cells can predict efficacy HER2-targeted independently from clinicopathological factors primary HER2-positive breast cancer patients. Understanding mechanism/s underlying this association would contribute optimizing patient stratification provide rationale for...
