Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous disease with distinct molecular subtypes that differentially respond to chemotherapy and targeted agents. The purpose of this study explore the clinical relevance Lehmann TNBC by identifying any differences in response neoadjuvant among them. We determined gene expression profiling paraffined pre-treatment tumor biopsies from 125 patients treated anthracyclines and/or taxanes +/- carboplatin. explored clinicopathological characteristics...
Integration of variant reads across patient-specific mutation loci enables sensitive ctDNA quantification in plasma cell-free DNA sequencing data.
Abstract Analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to monitor cancer dynamics and detect minimal residual disease has been an area increasing interest. Multiple methods have proposed but few studies compared the performance different approaches. Here, we compare detection ctDNA in serial plasma samples from patients with breast using tumor‐informed tumor‐naïve assays designed structural variants (SVs), single nucleotide (SNVs), and/or somatic copy‐number aberrations, by multiplex PCR, hybrid...
Pathology archives with linked clinical data are an invaluable resource for translational research, the limitation that most cancer samples formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. Therefore, FFPE tissues important genomic profiling studies but under-utilised due to low amount and quality of extracted nucleic acids. We profiled copy number landscape 356 breast patients using DNA by shallow whole genome sequencing. generated a total 491 sequencing libraries from 2 kits obtained 98.4%...
Abstract Background: The role of the HER2-enriched (HER2E) subtype determined by Prosigna Assay in neoadjuvant setting has remained largely uncharacterized. In this study, we examine whether can identify a subgroup HER2+ patients for whom combination therapy that includes trastuzumab (Herceptin) is associated with greater likelihood pathological complete response (pCR). Methods: single-arm retrospective analysis, 75 to be IHC were treated regimen (NAC) consisting 8-12 cycles anthracyclines...
1024 Background: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous disease with distinct molecular subtypes that differentially respond to chemotherapy (CHT) and targeted agents. In recent study, Lehmann et al. (JCI 2011) identified six of TNBC, characterized on the basis gene ontologies differential expression. However, their clinical utility remains unclear. We aimed explore relevance these in TNBC determining differences response neoadjuvant randomized phase II trial, GEICAM/...
1585 Background: Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease that still poorly understood. It mainly classified by immunohistochemistry (IHQ) as luminal disease. In this study, we use for the first time PAM50 signature to unravel molecular genetic heterogeneity in MBC. Methods: We collected surgical specimens of invasive MBC from four different Spanish pathology laboratories. IHQ staining estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone (PR), androgen (AR), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2),...
e21052 Background: Non immediate allergic reactions (niAR) related with oncology drugs are a rare entity. Usually, it is called Drug Reaction eosinophilia and sistemic symptoms (“DRESS”), occurring at first ten days of treatment.Recently, the treatment metastatic melanoma (MM) has included new in patients wtih BRAF V600E mutation. Despite skin usual, niAR to these have not been reported. We present 2 clinical cases mm treated BRAFi, developing such niAR. Methods: Patient 1: 47yo female lymph...

569 Background: Pathological complete response following NAC is associated with improved survival. CESP a novel algorithm derived from the GEICAM 2006-03 clinical trial which based on association of treatment correlation to each PAM50 subtype centroid. has been validated in two datasets consisting patients HR+/HER2- disease treated either or neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (unpublished data). Here, we examined whether score chemosensitivity another independent dataset. Methods: 216...
Abstract Background Copy Number Alterations (CNAs) represent changes in the copy number of genomic segments somatic cells due to chromosomal instability. CNAs include gene amplifications or deletions and can be involved tumorigenesis. We analyzed data pre- post-treatment (ttm) tumors from patients (pts) with early breast cancer (BC) neoadjuvant trials GEICAM/2006-03 GEICAM/2006-14, aim identify particular regions (genetic entropy) associated treatment response. Methods (NCT00432172)...
