Background: Molecular classification of breast tumors has identified the basal-like subtype, with high heterogeneity and very poor prognosis. These tumors are mainly triple negative, characterized by the expression of basal markers CK5/6 and EGFR. In this study, we sought to investigate the features, outcome, and therapeutic modalities of basal-like breast cancers (BLBC).Methods: We retrospectively identified 90 BLBC patients diagnosed at the Department of Surgical Oncology of Salah Azaiez Institute between January 2009 and December 2013. Results: The mean age of our patients was 50 years, and 15.5% had a family history of breast cancer. The mean tumor size was 43.8 mm. Histological examination revealed invasive ductal carcinoma in 88.9% of the cases, metaplastic carcinoma in 5.6%, and medullary carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma in 2.2%. BLBC was most often associated with a high tumor grade (55.3% had a grade 3 tumor) and a high Ki-67 proliferative index. Vascular invasion was found in 31.1% of the cases. Regarding lymph node involvement, 42.9% had positive lymph nodes and 7.9% featured distant metastases. Surgical treatment was provided for 85 patients. It consisted of conservative surgery in 40 cases and radical surgery in 45 cases. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administrated to 23 patients, with a 13% complete pathologic response. The rates of overall survival and disease-free survival at 3 years for localized BLBC were 74.4% and 75.9%, respectively. Conclusion: BLBCs are aggressive tumors associated with poor prognosis. Thus, to identify novel prognostic factors and therapeutic targets, prospective studies should investigate the epidemiological and evolutive profile of these tumors.

Previously, a consolidated mathematical model of primary tumor (PT) growth and secondary distant metastasis (sdMTS) growth in breast cancer (BC) (CoMPaS) was presented. The aim was to detect the diagnostic periods for visible sdMTS via CoMPaS in patients with different subtypes ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67 (Estrogen Receptor/Progesterone Receptor/Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2/Ki-67 marker) of breast cancer. CoMPaS is based on an exponential growth model and complementing formulas, and the model corresponds to the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system and BC subtypes (ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67). The CoMPaS model reflects (1) the subtypes of BC, such as ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67, and (2) the growth processes of the PT and sdMTSs in BC patients without or with lymph node metastases (MTSs) in accordance with the eighth edition American Joint Committee on Cancer prognostic staging system for breast cancer. CoMPaS correctly describes the growth of the PT in the ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67 subtypes of BC patients and helps to calculate the different diagnostic periods, depending on the tumor volume doubling time of sdMTS, when sdMTSs might appear. CoMPaS and the corresponding software tool can help (1) to start the early treatment of small sdMTSs in BC patients with different tumor subtypes (ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67), and (2) to consider the patient almost healthy if sdMTSs do not appear during the different diagnostic periods.

: Immunotherapy emerges as a treatment strategy for breast cancer marker, diagnosis and treatment. In this review, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)-based passive and peptide vaccines as active immunotherapy approaches like activation of B-cells and T-cells are studied. Passive immunotherapy is mAbs-based therapy effective against tumor cells, which acts by targeting HER2, IGF 1R, VEGF, BCSC and immune checkpoints. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and GPCR are the areas of interest to target BC metastases for on-targeting therapeutic action. Neuropeptide S (NPS) or NPS receptor 1, acts as a biomarker for Neuroendocrine tumors (NET), mostly characterized by synaptophysin and chromogranin-A expression or Ki-67 proliferation index. The protein fusion technologies arise as a promising avenue in plant expression systems for increased recombinant Ab accumulation and cost-efficient purification. Recently, mAbs-based immunotherapy effectiveness is appreciated as a novel therapeutic combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy to reduce the side effects and improve therapeutic responsiveness. Synthetic drug resistance will be overcome by mAbs-based therapy through several clinical trials and detection methods need to be optimized for accuracy and precision. Pharmacokinetic attributes need to be accessed for preferred receptor-agonist activity without ligand accumulation.

Aim. The aim of the study was to determine the presence of peculiarities of the age structure in patients with various surrogate molecular biological subtypes of breast cancer. Materials and research methods. This work analyzes the age-related characteristics of the occurrence of molecular biological subtypes in 499 patients with invasive breast cancer. All cases were divided into 5 molecular biological subtypes based on immunohistochemical studies of hormone receptors, Her2, Ki-67. The average age of the patients was 53.4±0.39 years, the predominant group was patients from 50 to 60 years (37.2% of the total). Research results. In patients under 40 years old, the triple negative subtype prevailed (44.8%). Luminal A subtype prevailed in the groups 51-60 years old (more than 41.4%) and over 60 years old (39.7%). Luminal B (Her2-) subtype was equally found in all age groups.
