10519 Objective. Triple-negative breast cancer is defined as a subtype of invasive breast cancer which lacks estrogen and progesterone receptor expression as well as HER2/neu expression and is highly similar to the basal-like subtype defined by gene expression profiling. Method. 1,143 patients treated at MD Anderson Cancer Center in neoadjuvant trials were included in a retrospective comparative analysis between triple-negative tumors and non-triple-negative tumors for response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy as well as long- term survival. Results. 827/1,143 (72%) patients had received taxanes, either as a single-agent (n=60) or in combination with anthracycline (n=767), whereas the remainder patients received an anthracycline-only chemotherapy. Overall 258/1,143 (23%) tumors were triple- negative. Complete pathological response (pCR) was achieved in 63/257 (25%) patients with triple-negative tumors compared to 99/888 (11%) in patients with non-triple-negative tumors (odds ratio [OR] 1.14, 95%CI: 1.09–1.20, p=.0082). Triple-negative status correlated significantly with high nuclear grade (p<.0001), whereas no significant correlation with any established clinicopathologic parameter was observed. However, 5-year overall survival (5yrOS) was 66% in the triple-negative group compared to 83% in the non-triple-negative control group (OR 2.1, 95%CI: 1.6–2.8, p<.0001). In multivariate analyses, triple-negative status (hazard ratio [HR] 2.0, 95%CI: 1.4–2.8, p<.0001), high nuclear grade, increased tumor size (HR 1.5, 95%CI: 1.3–1.8, p<.0001), positive nodal status (HR 1.4, 95%CI: 1.2–1.7, p=.0002) and high nuclear grade (HR 1.7, 95%CI: 1.1- 2.4, p=.0089) were significantly associated with decreased 5yrOS. When survival was analyzed according to both response rate and triple negative status, achievement of pCR was a stronger predictor of survival compared to triple-negative status. Conclusion. Triple- negative expression status among patients with breast cancer constitutes an independent unfavorable prognostic factor with regards to overall survival unless achieving pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Background: The incidence of pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC) is increasing, especially in the developed countries. Herein, we report the long-term outcomes of PABC from a single institution in an Arab country. Methods: Consecutive patients diagnosed to have PABC between 2005 and 2012 at a tertiary referral hospital from a Gulf cooperation council country were the subjects of the study. Long-term outcomes are reported, with a minimum follow-up of 8 years. Results: A total of 16 patients were evaluable for long-term survival analysis. The median age at the time of diagnosis was 31.5 (26-40) years. Nine (56%) patients were multiparous (> 5 previous pregnancies). The mean gestational age at diagnosis was 19.7±7.4 weeks. Immunohistochemistry revealed the following phenotypes: Luminal A 3 (18.8%); HER-2 enriched 8 (50%); triple-negative 5 (31.2%). Three patients underwent modified radical mastectomy as the initial treatment, of which 2 received adjuvant chemotherapy during pregnancy. For patients who received neoadjuvant or palliative chemotherapy, the response rate was 75% (pCR 2; CR 1; PR 6). After a median follow-up of 60 months, median progression-free survival was 36 months (95%CI 24.2 to 47.8), while the overall survival was 59 months (95%CI 31.6 – 86.4). Age, marker status, Ki-67 score, clinical stage and differentiation grade did not affect the PFS or OS on univariate analysis. Conclusions: Fifty percent of the patient with PABC expressed HER-2/neu protein, and 1/3rd had triple-negative disease. The rate of response to chemotherapy, and long-term survival may help to set a benchmark for studies from the region. Larger cohort studies may help to draw firm conclusions.
