Abstract The FGD3 gene works as a cell migration inhibitor and seems to be a promising indicator of outcome in some human cancers including breast. In this study, we analysed for the first time the prognostic role of FGD3 in young breast cancer patients. We studied the relationship between traditional prognostic factors, FGD3 expression and outcome in ≤40 years breast cancer patients. We found that lower FGD3 expression decreased the probability of disease-free survival (p = 0.042) and overall survival (p = 0.007). In a multivariate analysis for overall survival AJCC stage (p = 0.005) and FGD3 expression (p = 0.03) resulted independent prognostic factors. Low FGD3 expression increased the risk of death from disease (HR 5.73, p = 0.03). Moreover, low FGD3 expression was associated with more widespread lymph node involvement (p = 0.04) and a lower FGD3 staining intensity was found in positive-lymph-node patients vs negative (p = 0.003) and in patients with ≥10 involved lymph nodes vs <10 (p = 0.05). Our results suggest FGD3 to be a significant independent prognostic factor in young breast cancer patients in terms of disease-free survival and overall survival. A lower expression increased the risk of recurrence and death from disease and was associated with widespread lymph node metastases.

BackgroundMetastatic breast cancer (MBC) is a highly heterogeneous disease and bone is one of the most common metastatic sites. This retrospective study was conducted to investigate the clinical features, prognostic factors and benefits of surgery of breast cancer patients with initial bone metastases.MethodsFrom 2010 to 2015, 6,860 breast cancer patients diagnosed with initial bone metastasis were analyzed from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Univariate and Multivariable analysis were used to identify prognostic factors. A nomogram was performed based on the factors selected from cox regression result. Survival curves were plotted according to different subtypes, metastatic burdens and risk groups differentiated by nomogram.ResultsHormone receptor (HR) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive patients showed the best outcome compared to other subtypes. Patients of younger age (&lt;60 years old), white race, lower grade, lower T stage (&lt;=T2), not combining visceral metastasis tended to have better outcome. About 37% (2,249) patients received surgery of primary tumor. Patients of all subtypes could benefit from surgery. Patients of bone-only metastases (BOM), bone and liver metastases, bone and lung metastases also showed superior survival time if surgery was performed. However, patients of bone and brain metastasis could not benefit from surgery (p = 0.05). The C-index of nomogram was 0.66. Cutoff values of nomogram point were identified as 87 and 157 points, which divided all patients into low-, intermediate- and high-risk groups. Patients of all groups showed better overall survival when receiving surgery.ConclusionOur study has provided population-based prognostic analysis in patients with initial bone metastatic breast cancer and constructed a predicting nomogram with good accuracy. The finding of potential benefit of surgery to overall survival will cast some lights on the treatment tactics of this group of patients.
