Introduction
At least four major categories of invasive breast cancer that are associated with different clinical outcomes have been identified by gene expression profiling: luminal A, luminal B, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and basal-like. However, the prevalence of these phenotypes among cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has not been previously evaluated in detail. The purpose of this study was to compare the prevalence of these distinct molecular subtypes among cases of DCIS and invasive breast cancer.Methods
We constructed tissue microarrays (TMAs) from breast cancers that developed in 2897 women enrolled in the Nurses' Health Study (1976 to 1996). TMA slides were immunostained for oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2, cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Using these immunostain results, cases were grouped into molecularly defined subtypes.Results
The prevalence of the distinct molecular phenotypes differed significantly between DCIS (n = 272) and invasive breast cancers (n = 2249). The luminal A phenotype was significantly more frequent among invasive cancers (73.4%) than among DCIS lesions (62.5%) (p = 0.0002). In contrast, luminal B and HER2 molecular phenotypes were both more frequent among DCIS (13.2% and 13.6%, respectively) as compared with invasive tumours (5.2% and 5.7%, respectively) (p < 0.0001). The basal-like phenotype was more frequent among the invasive cancers (10.9%) than DCIS (7.7%), although this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.15). High-grade DCIS and invasive tumours were more likely to be HER2 type and basal-like than low- or intermediate-grade lesions. Among invasive tumours, basal-like and HER2 type tumours were more likely to be more than 2 cm in size, high-grade and have nodal involvement compared with luminal A tumours.Conclusion
The major molecular phenotypes previously identified among invasive breast cancers were also identified among cases of DCIS. However, the prevalence of the luminal A, luminal B and HER2 phenotypes differed significantly between DCIS and invasive breast cancers. 相似文献2.

Introduction
Mammographic density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer overall, but few studies have examined the association between mammographic density and specific subtypes of breast cancer, especially aggressive basal-like breast cancers. Because basal-like breast cancers are less frequently screen-detected, it is important to understand how mammographic density relates to risk of basal-like breast cancer.Methods
We estimated associations between mammographic density and breast cancer risk according to breast cancer subtype. Cases and controls were participants in the Carolina Breast Cancer Study (CBCS) who also had mammograms recorded in the Carolina Mammography Registry (CMR). A total of 491 cases had mammograms within five years prior to and one year after diagnosis and 528 controls had screening or diagnostic mammograms close to the dates of selection into CBCS. Mammographic density was reported to the CMR using Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System categories. The expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 1 and 2 (HER1 and HER2), and cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6) were assessed by immunohistochemistry and dichotomized as positive or negative, with ER+ and/or PR+, and HER2- tumors classified as luminal A and ER-, PR-, HER2-, HER1+ and/or CK5/6+ tumors classified as basal-like breast cancer. Triple negative tumors were defined as negative for ER, PR and HER2. Of the 491 cases 175 were missing information on subtypes; the remaining cases included 181 luminal A, 17 luminal B, 48 basal-like, 29 ER-/PR-/HER2+, and 41 unclassified subtypes. Odds ratios comparing each subtype to all controls and case-case odds ratios comparing mammographic density distributions in basal-like to luminal A breast cancers were estimated using logistic regression.Results
Mammographic density was associated with increased risk of both luminal A and basal-like breast cancers, although estimates were imprecise. The magnitude of the odds ratio associated with mammographic density was not substantially different between basal-like and luminal A cancers in case–control analyses and case-case analyses (case-case OR = 1.08 (95% confidence interval: 0.30, 3.84)).Conclusions
These results suggest that risk estimates associated with mammographic density are not distinct for separate breast cancer subtypes (basal-like/triple negative vs. luminal A breast cancers). Studies with a larger number of basal-like breast cancers are needed to confirm our findings. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Breast cancer can be classified into molecular subtypes that differ in clinical characteristics and prognosis. There is some but conflicting evidence that reproductive risk factors may differ between distinct breast cancer subtypes.Methods
We investigated associations of reproductive factors with the risk for six molecular breast cancer subtypes in a cohort of 21,532 Norwegian women who were born between 1886 and 1928 and followed up for breast cancer incidence between 1961 and 2008. We obtained stored tumor tissue from incident breast cancers and used immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization to classify 825 invasive tumors into three luminal subtypes [Luminal A, Luminal B (HER2?) and Luminal B (HER2+)] and three non-luminal subtypes [human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) subtype, basal-like phenotype (BP) and five negative phenotype (5NP)]. We used Cox regression to assess reproductive factors and risk for each subtype.Results
We found that young age at menarche, old age at first birth and low parity were associated with increased risk for luminal breast cancer subtypes. For the HER2 subtype, we either found no association or associations in the opposite direction compared to the luminal subtypes. The BP subtype appeared to have a similar reproductive risk profile as the luminal subtypes. Breastfeeding was associated with a reduced risk for HER2 and 5NP subtypes, but was not associated with any other subtype.Conclusions
The results suggest that molecular breast cancer subtypes differ in their reproductive risk factors, but associations with non-luminal subtypes are still poorly understood and warrant further study. 相似文献5.

BACKGROUND:
The prognostic significance of molecular phenotype in breast cancer is well established in the literature. Recent studies have demonstrated that subgross lesion distribution (unifocal, multifocal, and diffuse) and disease extent also carry prognostic significance in this disease. However, the correlation of molecular phenotypes with subgross parameters has not yet been investigated in detail.METHODS:
In total, 444 consecutive invasive breast cancers that were documented in large‐format histology slides and worked up with detailed radiologic‐pathologic correlation were sampled into tissue microarray blocks and stained immunohistochemically to delineate the molecular subtypes.RESULTS:
Diffuse or multifocal distribution of the invasive component of breast carcinomas in this series was associated with a 4.14‐fold respectively 2.75‐fold risk of cancer‐related death compared with unifocal tumors irrespective of molecular phenotype. Patients who had human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)‐positive cancers; estrogen receptor‐negative, progesterone receptor‐negative, and HER2‐negative (triple‐negative) cancers; or basal‐like cancers had a 2.18‐fold, 2.33‐fold, and 4.07‐fold risk of dying of disease, respectively, compared with patients who had luminal A carcinomas. Unifocal luminal A, HER2‐positive, and basal‐like cancers were associated with significantly better long‐term survival outcomes than their multifocal or diffuse counterparts; luminal B and triple‐negative tumors also had the same tendency. In multivariate analysis, patient age, tumor size category, lymph node status, lesion distribution, and molecular phenotypes remained significant.CONCLUSIONS:
Multifocality and diffuse distribution of the invasive component were associated with significantly poorer survival in women with breast carcinomas compared with unifocal disease in patients with luminal A, HER2 type, and basal‐like cancers. Molecular classification of breast cancer is a powerful tool but gains in power when combined with conventional and subgross morphologic parameters.

Purpose.
Breast cancer (BC) is a disease of aging and the number of older BC patients in the U.S. is rising. Immunohistochemical data show that with increasing age, the incidence of hormone receptor-positive tumors increases, whereas the incidence of triple-negative tumors decreases. Few data exist on the frequency of molecular subtypes in older women. Here, we characterize the incidence and outcomes of BC patients by molecular subtypes and age.Patients and Methods.
Data from 3,947 patients were pooled from publicly available clinical and gene expression microarray data sets. The PAM50 algorithm was used to classify tumors into five BC intrinsic subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, HER2-enriched, basal-like, and normal-like. The association of age and subtype with recurrence-free survival (RFS), overall survival, and disease-specific survival (DSS) was assessed.Results.
The incidence of luminal (A, B, and A+B) tumors increased with age (p < .01, p < .0001, and p < .0001, respectively), whereas the percentage of basal-like tumors decreased (p < .0001). Among patients 70 years and older, luminal B, HER2-enriched, and basal-like tumors were found at a frequency of 32%, 11%, and 9%, respectively. In older women, luminal subtypes had better outcomes than basal-like and HER2-enriched subtypes. After controlling for subtype, treatment, tumor size, nodal status, and grade, increasing age had no impact on RFS or DSS.Conclusion.
More favorable BC subtypes increase with age, but older patients still have a substantial percentage of high-risk tumor subtypes. After accounting for tumor subtypes, age at diagnosis is not an independent prognostic factor for outcome. 相似文献7.

Expression profiling of invasive breast carcinomas by DNA microarray techniques has identified five distinct subtypes of tumors
(luminal A, luminal B, normal breast-like, HER2 overexpression, and basal-like) that are associated with different clinical
outcomes and with different chemotherapy. Basal-like carcinoma is associated with younger patient age, high histological grade,
aggressive clinical course, development of distant metastasis, poor prognosis, and relatively high mortality rate. Basal-like
carcinomas do not express estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, or HER2 (triple-negative phenotype). Therefore, patients
with basal-like carcinomas are not likely to benefit from endocrine therapies or trastuzumab, but are likely to benefit from
systemic chemotherapy. Although genetic, morphological, and immunohistochemical features of basal-like carcinomas have been
reported, there is no universal definition for those tumors. Furthermore, there are no specific morphological and immunohistochemical
features that can identify those tumors in routine diagnostic materials. In the present paper, we present data of histological
and cytological features of basal-like breast carcinoma, and discuss about its morphological spectrum. 相似文献

Purpose
Relevant animal models of human breast cancer are currently needed, especially for the aggressive triple-negative breast cancer subtype. Recent studies and our results (Part 1) indicate that spontaneous canine invasive mammary carcinomas (CMCs) resemble human breast cancer by clinics and pathology as well as behavior and prognostic indicators. We hypothesized that the current molecular classifications of human breast cancer, used for therapeutic decision, could be relevant to dogs.Methods
Three hundred and fifty female dogs with spontaneous CMC and a 2-year follow-up were retrospectively included. By immunohistochemistry, CMCs were classified according to Nielsen (Clin Cancer Res 10:5367–5374, 2004) and Blows (PlosOne doi: 10.1371/journal.pmed.1000279, 2010) into the subtypes of human breast cancer.Results
Four immunophenotypes were defined either according to Nielsen classification (luminal A 14.3%, luminal B 9.4%, triple-negative basal-like 58.6%, and triple-negative nonbasal-like 17.7% CMCs); or to Blows classification (luminal 1?: 11.4%, luminal 1+: 12.3%, Core basal phenotype: 58.6%, and five-negative phenotype: 17.7%). No HER2-overexpressing CMC as defined by a 3 + immunohistochemical score was observed in our cohort. By univariate and multivariate analyses, both immunophenotypical classifications applied to CMCs showed strong prognostic significance: luminal A or luminal 1+ CMCs showed a significantly longer disease-free interval (HR = 0.46), Overall (HR = 0.47), and Specific Survival (HR = 0.56) compared to triple-negative carcinomas, after adjustment for stage.Conclusions
In our cohort, triple-negative CMCs largely predominated (76%), were much more prevalent than in human beings, and showed an aggressive natural behavior after mastectomy. Dogs are thus potent valuable spontaneous models to test new therapeutic strategies for this particular subtype of breast cancer.9.

Background
More than half of re-excision specimens after breast conserving surgery (BCS) are found to be free of residual tumor at definitive histology. The aim of this study was to identify clinicopathological factors along with intrinsic subtypes of the tumor (luminal A, luminal B, HER2-overexpressing, triple-negative) associated with residual tumor in re-excision or mastectomy specimen.Methods
Two hundred forty-eight patients with initial BCS, who underwent one or more re-excisions or mastectomy because of close or positive margins were reviewed.Results
Residual cancer was found in 50% of re-excision(s) or mastectomy specimens. Patients with multifocality (vs unifocality; OR = 5.2; 95% CI, 2.6–10.4) or positive nodes (vs negative nodes; OR = 2.5; 95% CI, 1.4–4.4), or positive margins (vs close margins; OR = 1.7; 95% CI = 1.0–2.9) were more likely to have residual tumor in re-excision or mastectomy specimen compared to others.Conclusion
Our results suggest that further surgery is often indicated in patients with node positive or multifocal cancers or positive margins after BCS since residual disease cannot be ruled out. Re-excision or mastectomy could be omitted in patients with close margins with favorable factors such unifocal tumor or node negative disease. 相似文献10.

Background
Identification of a gene expression signature in primary breast tumors that could classify patients by lymph node status would allow patients to avoid the morbidities of surgical disruption of the lymph nodes. Attempts to identify such a signature have, to date, been unsuccessful. Because breast tumor subtypes have unique molecular characteristics and different sites of metastasis, molecular signatures for lymph node involvement may vary by subtype.Methods
Gene expression data was generated from HG U133A 2.0 arrays for 135 node positive and 210 node negative primary breast tumors. Intrinsic subtype was assigned using the BreastPRS. Differential gene expression analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA using lymph node status as the variable with a False-discovery rate <0.05, to define significance.Results
Luminal A tumors were most common (51%) followed by basal-like (27%), HER2-enriched (14%) luminal B (7%) and normal-like (1%). Basal-like and luminal A tumors were less likely to have metastatic lymph nodes (35% and 37%, respectively) compared to luminal B or HER2-enriched (52% and 51%, respectively). No differentially expressed genes associated with lymph node status were detected when all tumors were considered together or within each subtype.Conclusions
Gene expression patterns from the primary tumor are not able to stratify patients by lymph node status. Although the primary breast tumor may influence tumor cell dissemination, once metastatic cells enter the lymphatics, it is likely that characteristics of the lymph node microenvironment, such as establishment of a pre-metastatic niche and release of pro-survival factors, determine which cells are able to colonize. The inability to utilize molecular profiles from the primary tumor to determine lymph node status suggest that other avenues of investigation, such as how systemic factors including diminished immune response or genetic susceptibility contribute to metastasis, may be critical in the development of tools for non-surgical assessment of lymph node status with a corresponding reduction in downstream sequelae associated with disruption of the lymphatics.11.

Purpose
Despite numerous studies on the utility of GATA-3 as breast cancer marker, its comparison with other breast markers, its concordance between primary and metastatic tumors and its expression in primary cancers from sites with frequent breast metastases remains unclear.Methods
To address these questions, totally 993 invasive breast cancers (IBC), 254 paired nodal metastases, 23 distant metastases, and 208 lung carcinomas were included. GATA-3 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry and compared to other breast markers [gross cystic disease fluid protein 15 (GCDFP-15) and mammaglobin (MGB)].Results
GATA-3 was expressed in 82.5% of IBC, predominantly in luminal (93.9%), and lower in non-luminal cancers [59.6% of HER2 overexpressing (HER2-OE) and 38.1% of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtypes]. GATA-3 identified more IBC than GCDFP-15 (23.9%) and MGB (46.6%). However, MGB showed a comparable sensitivity for non-luminal cancers to GATA-3. Combining MGB and GATA-3 improved sensitivity for both HER2-OE (80.8%) and TNBC cases (55.4%). GATA-3 showed a high sensitivity for nodal metastases and distant metastases, with good concordance with primary tumors. GATA-3 was expressed in 1.0% of lung carcinomas, with sensitivity and specificity of 82.5 and 99.0% in differentiating IBC and lung carcinoma.Conclusions
GATA-3 expression was the highest in luminal breast carcinomas, and showed higher sensitivity than GCDFP-15 and MGB. However, in the poorly differentiated IBC, its utility was still limited. One should be aware of the possible GATA-3 expression in lung carcinomas.12.

Introduction
Emerging research suggests a substantially greater prevalence of the adverse triple-negative (TN) subtype (human epidermal growth factor receptor [HER]2−, estrogen receptor [ER]−, and progesterone receptor [PR])−) among black patients with breast cancer. No reports however have been generated from a statewide cancer registry.Patients and Methods
The study consisted of all black patients (N = 643) and a random sample of white patients (n = 719) diagnosed with primary invasive breast cancer (2000-2003) listed in the National Cancer Institute–Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (NCI-SEER) Connecticut Tumor Registry (CTR). HER2 status was obtained from pathology reports submitted to the registry. Remaining data were obtained from the registry database.Results
TN tumors were more prevalent in black compared with white patients (30.8% vs. 11.2%, respectively; P < .001.) There was a 2-fold greater frequency of ER− and PR− phenotypes among black patients, but HER2 status did not differ by race. Patients with lobular cancer were less likely to have TN breast cancer compared with patients with ductal tumors (odds ratio [OR] = 0.23; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.10-0.58). Among patients with regional disease, black patients exhibited increased risk of death (relative risk [RR] = 2.71; 95% CI, 1.48-4.97) independent of TN status. No survival disparity was found among patients with local disease.Discussion
These registry-based data corroborate reports that TN breast cancer varies substantially by race and histologic subtype. A survival disparity among patients with advanced disease, but not local disease, casts some doubt on TN status as an explanation for differences.Conclusion
More research is warranted to understand why black patients with advanced breast cancer may be at increased risk for death whether or not their tumors express the TN phenotype. 相似文献13.
Introduction
Brain metastases (BM) occur in up to one third of patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC), whose incidences and prognoses by breast cancer subtypes in BM have not been well delineated.Methods
Retrospective survival analyses were performed in 126 BM patients from 805 MBC patients treated at the National Cancer Center between August 2001 and April 2006, according to clinical characteristics, breast cancer subtypes, and receipt of trastuzumab. Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth receptor-2 (HER2) statuses were tested by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining, and HER2 FISH analysis conducted for IHC 2+.Results
The proportion of HER2+/ER- (29% vs 16%) and triple-negative (37% vs 25%) tumors was higher in the 126 BM patients than those without BM. While median survival after recurrence was longer in patients with luminal A disease (median survival of luminal A vs luminal B vs HER2+/ER- vs triple-negative: p = 0.0246; 39.6 vs 27.4 vs 20.9 vs 15.5 months), survival was shorter from BM to death in luminal A and triple negatives (median survival: p = 0.0113; 4.0 vs 9.2 vs 5.0 vs 3.4 months). Receipt of trastuzumab after BM was a significant variable for survival in HER2+ patients. Multivariate analyses identified ER-negative, HER2-negative, or triple-negative, as well as older age, presence of leptomeningeal disease, and three or more extracranial disease sites, as poor prognostic factors for survival after BM.Conclusion
MBC patients who developed BM had higher proportions of triple-negative and HER2+/ER- tumor status. Triple receptor status is a useful prognostic marker for predicting survival after BM in metastatic breast cancer patients. 相似文献14.

Purpose
Stage shift is considered a major reason for more favorable outcomes in patients with screen-detected breast cancer. However, even after adjusting for clinical stage, unresolved issues concerning the reasons for a survival benefit associated with screening programs remain. This study aims to evaluate differences in subtype distribution and outcomes among patients with screen-detected and symptomatic invasive breast cancer and assess whether variations in subtype distribution could explain differences in prognosis.Methods
Survival analysis was performed to estimate the likelihood of distant recurrence and death in 1132 patients. Subtypes were defined as luminal A [estrogen receptor (ER)+ and/or progesterone receptor (PR)+, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)?, and Ki67 low], luminal B (HER2?) (ER+ and/or PR+, HER2?, and Ki67 high), luminal B (HER2+) (ER+ and/or PR+ and HER2+), HER2 overexpressing (ER?, PR?, and HER2+), and triple negative (ER?, PR?, and HER2?).Results
Screen-detected cancers had favorable clinicopathological characteristics, such as smaller tumor size and a lower frequency of lymph node involvement. Women with screen-detected cancers had a survival advantage. Subtype distribution differed significantly among women with screen-detected and symptomatic cancer. Screen-detected cancers were more likely to be luminal A and less likely to be HER2 overexpressing or triple negative cancer compared with symptomatic cancers (luminal A 61.3 vs. 44.2%, HER2 overexpressing 4.0 vs. 8.0%, triple negative 8.0 vs. 15.9%). Node status, mode of detection, and subtype were independent prognostic factors in the multivariate analysis.Conclusions
Differences in subtype distribution between screen-detected and symptomatic cancer could partially explain differences in outcomes.16.

Background: To correlate breast cancer subtypes with prognostic factors, microvessel density (MVD),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and clinical features. Materials and Methods: Onehundred cases of primary breast carcinoma were classified using biomarkers on tissue microarray as: luminalA [estrogen receptor (ER)+, HER2-, Ki-67≤14%], luminal B [ER+, HER2+ or ER+, HER2-, Ki-67>14%],HER2, triple negative basal-like (TNB) [any basal cytokeratins (CKs, 5, 14, 17) and/or endothelial growth factorreceptor (EGFR) expression], and TN without such markers [TNN, null], and assessed for p53, vimentin, VEGFand CD31 immunoperoxidase. Results: Of the 100 cases (mean age, 51 years; mean tumor size, 3.2cm; 56%with nodal metastasis; 89 invasive ductal carcinomas, not otherwise specified, 4 invasive lobular carcinomas,3 metaplastic carcinomas, and 4 other types) there were 39 luminal A, 18 luminal B, 18 HER2, 15 TNB and10 TNN. The positivities of basal-like markers in the basal-like subtype were 78.3% for CK5, 40% for CK14,20% for CK17, 46.7% for EGFR. There was no significant difference in age distribution, tumor size, degreeof tubular formation, pleomorphism, lymphovascular invasion, nodal metastasis, MVD, VEGF expression andsurvival among subgroups. TNs demonstrated significantly higher tumor grade, mitotic count, Ki-67 index, p53and vimentin and decreased overall survival compared with nonTN. Conclusions: The distribution of breastcancer subtypes in this study was similar to other Asian countries with a high prevalence of TN. The high gradecharacter of TN was confirmed and CK5 expression was found to be common in our basal-like subtype. Nosignificant elevation of MVD or VEGF expression was apparent. 相似文献

Background
Breast cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and deaths among women worldwide. In Tanzania there is no published data on human epidermal growth receptor-2 (HER2/neu) expression in breast carcinoma. Hormonal receptors and HER2/neu status reportedly influence post-mastectomy adjuvant therapy and predict treatment outcome and prognosis. Here we evaluate hormonal receptors and HER-2 status in biopsies of women with breast cancer at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH).Methods
A cross-sectional study of female breast post-modified radical mastectomy (MRM)/incisional biopsies confirmed to be carcinoma at the Histopathology Unit (January–December 2013). Tissue blocks having poor morphology, without tumor, secondary tumors, cases outside the study period and male patients were excluded. Routine staining was done followed by immunohistochemistry for estrogen (ER), and progesterone (PgR) receptors and HER2. Data analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS).Results
A total of 218 cases were confirmed to be carcinoma including 70 meeting inclusion criteria. Age at diagnosis ranged 18–75 years and mean age was 48.36 years. Majority (64.3%) were in the 36–55 years age-group. Histologically, most (88.6%) women had invasive ductal carcinoma including 43.1% of intermediate grade. A great majority (78%) were stage three. Due to logistical constrains, 75.7% (n = 53/70) cases where immunostained for hormones including 43.4% (ER+), 26.4% (PgR+), and 28% (ER+/PgR+). Furthermore, 65.7% (n = 46/70) cases were immunostained for HER-2 and 15.2% (n = 7/46) were positive, 45.6% were triple negative (ER-,PgR-,HER2-), 23.9% (ER+,PgR+,HER2-) or luminal B, 2.2% (ER+,PgR-,HER2+),13% (ER-,PgR-,HER2+) and 15% (ER+,PgR-,HER2-) with none being triple positive.Conclusions
Hormonal receptors and HER2 expression at MNH appears to be comparable to previous Africans/African Americans reports but not with studies among Caucasians and the current proportion of triple negative breast carcinomas (TNBC) is higher than in a previous Tanzanian report and majority are luminal. HER2 over-expression is relatively common. It is strongly recommended that receptor status assessment be made routine for breast cancer patients at MNH.18.

Purpose
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive luminal B type comprises estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and HER2-positive cancers, and HER2-negative luminal B type comprises ER-positive cancers showing a Ki-67 labeling index ≥14% or progesterone receptor (PR) expression of <20% according to the St. Gallen consensus 2013. The current study aimed to classify intrinsic subtypes according to the St. Gallen consensus 2013 and determine the differences in clinicopathological parameters and survival outcomes among the molecular types, especially among the luminal types.Methods
Assessment of molecular types was performed for 267 invasive ductal carcinomas. The differences in clinicopathological parameters, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) among the molecular types were analyzed.Results
The luminal B type was the most prevalent, at 44.9%, followed by the luminal A, triple-negative (including basal-like type), and HER2 type, at 21.7%, 18.7%, and 14.6%, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in size (p=0.003), nodal status (p=0.046), histologic grade (p<0.001), p53 (p<0.001) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) positivity (p=0.002), recurrence (p=0.001) and death rates (p=0.036), DFS (p=0.002), and OS (p=0.039) among the molecular types. Significant differences in size (p=0.009), nodal metastasis (p=0.019), histologic grade (p<0.001), p53 positivity (p=0.001), and PR expression (p<0.001) were noted between the luminal A and B types. Among the luminal B type cancers, the distributions of ER and PR scores showed significant differences (p=0.003, p=0.003). p53 positivity in the luminal B type cancers was related to shortened DFS (p=0.034). In luminal type cancers, COX-2 positivity was related to longer DFS (p=0.026).Conclusion
Different management guidelines should be considered for the luminal A and luminal B breast cancer types. Positive p53 expression in luminal B type cancers and negative COX-2 expression in luminal type cancers seem to be related to poor clinical outcome. 相似文献19.

Background
Diagnosis of triple-negative breast cancer (ER-negative, PgR-negative, HER2-negative; TNBC) is performed by means of immunohistological staining. HER2-negative includes HER2(0) and HER2(1+), based on differences in the staining intensity, but there have been no reports on comparison of these two types in TNBC. Accordingly, this study was designed to investigate the possible differences in the biological characteristics of HER2(0) breast cancer and HER2(1+) breast cancer in TNBC.Methods
Tissue specimens from 89 TNBC patients were immunohistochemically stained for CK5/6, EGFR, p53, Ki67, E-cadherin, TOP2A and Bcl-2. The expressions of these markers and the clinicopathological findings were compared between the HER2(0) patient group and the HER2(1+) patient group. When either CK5/6 or EGFR was positive, the specimen was judged to be the basal-like phenotype of breast cancer.Results
The percentages of CK5/6- and/or EGFR-positive specimens in the HER2(0) and HER2(1+) groups were 44.9 and 16.8%, respectively, showing that there was a significantly greater number of basal-like phenotype patients in the HER2(0) group (p?<?0.01). The percentage of E-cadherin-positive specimens in the HER2(0) group was 66.6%, which was significantly greater than the 40.0% recorded in the HER2(1+) group (p?<?0.05). The respective percentages of TOP2A-positive specimens in the HER2(0) and HER2(1+) groups were 55.0 and 30.0%, and the difference was statistically significant (p?<?0.05).Conclusion
In TNBC, HER2(0) breast cancer showed a strong tendency to include more of the basal-like phenotype compared with HER2(1+) breast cancer. The staining results indicated the possibility that HER2(0) breast cancer and HER2(1+) breast cancer have different characteristics. 相似文献20.
