Breast Cancer Risk Factors

To systematically investigate the epidemiology of breast cancer risk factors in Iran, we performed a systematic search via PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Persian databases for identifying studies published on breast cancer risk factors up to March 2019. Meta-analyses were done for risk factors reported in more than one study. We calculated odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using a fixed/random-effects models.Thirty-nine studies entered into the meta-analysis. Pooling of ORs showed a significant harmful effect for risk factors including family history (OR: 1.80, 95%CI 1.47-2.12), HRT (OR: 5.48, 95%CI 0.84-1.74), ER positive (OR: 1.87, 95%CI 1.41-2.33), PR positive (OR: 1.84, 95%CI 1.38-2.29), stress condition (OR: 2.67, 95%CI 1.84-3.50), passive smokers (OR: 1.68, 95%CI 1.34-2.03), full-term pregnancy at age 30 (OR: 3.41, 95%CI 1.19-5.63), abortion (OR: 1.84, 95%CI 1.35-2.33), sweets consumption (OR: 1.71, 95%CI 1.32-2.11) and genotype Arg/Arg (crude OR: 1.59, 95%CI 1.07-2.10), whereas a significant protective effect for late menarche (OR: 0.58, 95%CI 0.32-0.83), nulliparity (OR: 0.68, 95%CI 0.39-0.96), 13 to 24 months of breastfeeding (OR: 0.68, 95%CI 0.46-0.90), daily exercise (OR: 0.59, 95%CI 0.44-0.73) and vegetable consumption (crude OR: 0.28, 95%CI 0.10-0.46).This study suggest that factors such as family history, HRT, ER and PR positive status, stress condition, passive smokers, late full-term pregnancy, abortion, sweets consumption and genotype Arg/Arg might increase risk of breast cancer development, whereas late menarche, nulliparity, 13-24 months breastfeeding, daily exercise and vegetable consumption had an inverse association with breast cancer development.

Abstract Background Whether tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play different roles in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer remains unknown. Additionally, their prognostic and predictive value in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer is still controversial. The aim of our meta-analysis was to assess the prognostic and predictive value of TILs in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer by summarizing all relevant studies performing multivariate analysis. Methods PubMed, Embase, EBSCO, ScienceDirect, the Cochrane Database and Web of Science were comprehensively searched (until March 2020). Hazard ratios (HRs), odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used as effect measures to perform our meta-analysis. A random effect model was used. Stata software, version 15 (2017) (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA) was used to perform the statistical analysis. Results Thirty-three studies including 18,170 eligible breast cancer patients were analysed. The meta-analysis showed that high TIL expression was significantly associated with increased pathological complete response (pCR) rates after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with the HER2-enriched molecular subtype (OR = 1.137, 95% CI [1.061 ~ 1.218], p < 0.001) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype (OR = 1.120, 95% CI [1.061 ~ 1.182], p < 0.001). However, high TIL expression was not significantly associated with high pCR rates after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with the luminal molecular subtype of breast cancer (OR = 1.154, 95% CI [0.789 ~ 1.690], p = 0.460). We carried out a meta-analysis on the HRs of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) to assess the prognostic value of TILs in breast cancer with different molecular subtypes more deeply. Our meta-analysis confirmed that high TILs were associated with significantly improved DFS in patients with the HER2-enriched molecular subtype [HR = 0.940, 95% CI (0.903 ~ 0.979), p = 0.003] and TNBC molecular subtype [HR = 0.907, 95% CI (0.862 ~ 0.954), p < 0.001]. However, high TILs were not associated with significantly better DFS in patients with the luminal molecular subtype of breast cancer [HR = 0.998, 95% CI (0.977 ~ 1.019), p = 0.840]. Furthermore, the results confirmed that high TILs were significantly related to better OS in patients with the HER2-enriched molecular subtype [HR = 0.910, 95% CI (0.866 ~ 0.957), p < 0.001] and TNBC molecular subtype [HR = 0.869, 95% CI (0.836 ~ 0.904), p < 0.001]. Conversely, the summarized results indicated that high TILs were significantly associated with poor OS in patients with the luminal molecular subtype of breast cancer [HR = 1.077, 95% CI (1.016 ~ 1.141), p = 0.012]. Conclusions Our meta-analysis confirms that high TILs are associated with favourable survival and predicts pCR in breast cancer patients with the TNBC and HER2-enriched molecular subtypes.

Background Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with higher aggressiveness and mortality than hormone-positive breast cancer because of the lack of approved therapeutic targets. Patients with TNBC who attain a pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy have improved survival. Platinum-based agents show promising activity in TNBC; however, their use remains controversial. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the role of platinum-based agents in neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with TNBC. Methods We performed an extensive literature search of the Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane databases. We calculated pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the identified studies. Results Eight randomized controlled trials with 1345 patients were included in the analysis. The addition of platinum-based agents improved pCR compared with neoadjuvant therapy based on anthracyclines, cyclophosphamide, taxanes, and fluorouracil (49.1% vs. 35.9%; OR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.23–2.86). Hematological adverse events were similar in both groups, except for more thrombocytopenia in the platinum-based group (OR: 7.96, 95% CI: 3.18–19.93). Conclusion The addition of platinum-based agents to neoadjuvant chemotherapy improved pCR rates in patients with TNBC, with a slight increase in hematological toxicities. Platinum-based agents might thus be an accessible and economically viable option in patients with TNBC.
