Advances in chemotherapeutic and targeted agents have increased pathologic complete response (pCR) rates after neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST). Vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB) has been suggested to accurately evaluate pCR. This study aims confirm the non-inferiority of 5-year disease-free survival patients who omitted breast surgery when predicted a pCR based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) VAB NST, compared with had undergone previous studies.

TPS627 Background: Advances in chemotherapeutic and targeted agents have increased pathologic complete response (pCR) rates after neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST). The role of surgery is essential to remove cancer when residual tumor present, but it may be limited confirmation those with a pCR. As an alternative, pCR can accurately evaluated vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB) patients suggested on imaging. We aim show non-inferiority omitting breast image-guided VAB. Methods: OPTIMIST trial...

Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors affecting women globally. It a heterogeneous disease characterized by mutations in several genes. Several gene panels have been applied to assess risk breast and determine appropriate treatment. As powerful tool, Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has widely utilized research due its advantages, including high speed, throughput, accuracy. In this study, we aim analyze correlation between somatic cancer, analyzed using NGS, prognosis...

By investigating the characteristics and prognosis of breast cancer (BC) patients who have undergone hormone replacement therapy (HRT), this study addresses a gap in existing literature. A total 17,355 postmenopausal with BC were analyzed using data from Korea Breast Cancer Society database (2000-2014). Among them, 3,585 (20.7%) had history HRT before diagnosis (HRT group), while 13,770 (79.3%) never received (non-HRT group). The group exhibited an earlier pathologic stage, lower histologic...
