Purpose To determine the prognostic and predictive value of intrinsic subtyping by using immunohistochemical (IHC) biomarkers for ipsilateral breast relapse (IBR) in participants in an early breast cancer randomized trial of tamoxifen with or without breast radiotherapy (RT). Patients and Methods IHC analysis of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), cytokeratin 5/6, epidermal growth factor receptor, and Ki-67 was conducted on 501 of 769 available blocks. Patients were classified as luminal A (n = 265), luminal B (n = 165), or high-risk subtype (luminal HER2, n = 22; HER2 enriched, n = 13; basal like, n = 30; or triple-negative nonbasal, n = 6). Median follow-up was 10 years. Results Classification by subtype was prognostic for IBR (10-year estimates: luminal A, 5.2%; luminal B, 10.5%; high-risk subtypes, 21.3%; P < .001). Luminal subtypes seemed to derive less benefit from RT (luminal A hazard ratio [HR], 0.40; luminal B HR, 0.51) than high-risk subtypes (HR, 0.13); however, the overall subtype-treatment interaction term was not significant (P = .26). In an exploratory analysis of women with clinical low-risk (age older than 60 years, T1, grade 1 or 2) luminal A tumors (n = 151), 10-year IBR was 3.1% versus 11.8% for the high-risk cohort (n = 341; P = .0063). Clinical low-risk luminal A patients had a 10-year IBR of 1.3% with tamoxifen versus 5.0% with tamoxifen plus RT (P = .42). Multivariable analysis showed that RT (HR, 0.31; P < .001), clinical risk group (HR, 2.2; P = .025), and luminal A subtype (HR, 0.25; P < .001) were significantly associated with IBR. Conclusion IHC subtyping was prognostic for IBR but was not predictive of benefit from RT. Further studies may validate the exploratory finding of a low-risk luminal A group who may be spared breast RT.

Pendahuluan: Kanker payudara seharusnya dapat ditemukan pada tahap yang lebih dini, akan tetapi kanker ini lebih sering diketahui pada stadium lanjut yang menyebabkan tingginya angka kematian. Prognosis kanker yang buruk akan mempengaruhi kualitas hidup pasien, kondisi keuangan, peran dan fungsi pasien dan keluarga bahkan kematian. Acuan prognosis  pada pasien kanker payudara didasarkan pada analisa penanda biologis tumor primer yang mencakup reseptor estrogen (ER), reseptor progesteron (PR), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) dan Ki67 yang diklasidikasikan menjadi 4 subtipe molekuler yaitu Luminal A, Luminal B, HER2 overexpression, dan Triple Negative. Metode: Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi systematic review dengan data yang akan digunakan adalah hasil-hasil penelitian yang telah beredar di dunia. Populasi penelitian ini adalah literatur jurnal hasil pencarian mengenai infiltrasi limfovaskular terhadap subtipe molekuler dari kanker payudara yang dipublikasikan di jurnal internasional dan dapat diakses melalui internet. Sampel penelitian ini ditentukan berdasarkan beberapa kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi yang telah dibuat. Hasil: Dari 5 jurnal internasional yang telah dikumpulkan, selanjutnya dianalisis menggunakan forest plot. Berdasarkan analisis data, didapatkan P =0,21 yang artinya uji perbedaan subkelompok menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada efek subkelompok yang signifikan terjadi secara statistik. Simpulan: Tidak terdapat hubungan antara infiltrasi limfovaskular dengan subtipe molekuler kanker payudara invasif.

P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) are major actors in multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon in both human and canine mammary carcinomas (CMCs). The aim of this study was to investigate an association between the intrinsic expression of P-gp and BCRP compared to the immunophenotypes and outcome in CMCs. Fifty CMCs were evaluated at immunohistochemistry (IHC) for P-gp, BCRP, Estrogen receptor alpha (ER), Progesterone receptors (PR), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor type 2 (HER2), basal cytokeratins 5/6 (CK5/6), Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 1 (EGFR), and Ki67 proliferation index. P-gp and BCRP positive cases were, respectively, 52% and 74.5%, with a significantly higher expression of BCRP than P-gp. Five immunophenotypes were defined in 37 out of 50 CMCs: 9 (24.3%) Luminal A, 5 (13.5%) Luminal B, 9 (24.3%) HER2 overexpressing, 9 (24.3%) Triple-negative basal-like, and 5 (13.5%) Triple-negative non-basal-like. In all CMCs at least one marker was expressed. Follow-up data were available for 25 animals. The average cancer-specific survival was 739 ± 444 days. A number of CMCs bear a high expression of P-gp and BCRP but no significant association was found between their expression and the immunophenotypes, Ki67 index, the histological grade, and tumor-related death.

Background and Objectives: Kidney and brain protein (KIBRA) is a protein encoded by the WW and C2 domain containing 1 (WWC1) gene and is involved in the Hippo signaling pathway. Recent studies have revealed the prognostic value of KIBRA expression; however, its role in breast cancer remains unclear. The aim of this study was to examine KIBRA expression in relation to the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with breast cancer and to disease outcomes. Materials and Methods: We analyzed the expression of KIBRA and its correlation with event-free survival (EFS) outcomes in resected samples from 486 patients with breast cancer. Results: KIBRA expression was significantly different among the molecular subgroups (low KIBRA expression: luminal A, 46.7% versus 50.0%, p = 0.641; luminal B, 32.7% versus 71.7%, p < 0.001; human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-enriched, 64.9% versus 45.5%. p = 0.001; triple-negative, 73.6% versus 43.8%, p < 0.001). Low KIBRA expression was also associated with high nuclear grade (60.4% versus 37.8%, p < 0.001), high histologic grade (58.7% versus 37.0%, p < 0.001), and estrogen receptor (ER) negativity (54.2% versus 23.6%, p < 0.001). Low KIBRA expression was significantly associated with poor EFS (p = 0.041; hazard ratio (HR) 1.658; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.015–2.709). Low KIBRA expression was an independent indicator of poor prognosis (p = 0.001; HR = 3.952; 95% CI = 1.542–10.133) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Conclusion: Low KIBRA expression was associated with higher histological grade, ER negativity and poor EFS of breast cancer. In particular, our data highlight KIBRA expression status as a potential prognostic marker for TNBC.

Abstract Introduction Globally, breast cancer is a leading cause of female cancer-related mortality and most predominant in the premenopausal stage. Expression of hormone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, HER2/neu, appears to be different in the premenopausal group. However, there are limited data on hormone receptor expressions among women in Uganda. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the expression of estrogen, progesterone receptors, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 in women with breast cancer. Methods This was a retrospective descriptive cross-sectional laboratory-based study conducted in the Department of Pathology, Makerere University. Paraffin-embedded tissue blocks were retrieved from the archive and stained with H&E for histological confirmation and establishment of histological grade and type. Immunohistochemistry staining using a mouse-derived monoclonal antibody for hormonal receptors and HER2/neu expression was also done. Data were analyzed using STATA version 13. Results A total of 103 patients’ tissue blocks were analyzed. The mean ± SD age of the cases was 49 ± 15 years. The majority, 55/103 (53.4%), had intermediate cancer grade and 39/103 (37.9%) had triple-negative breast cancer. The majority, 55/103 (53.4%), were positive for ER hormone expression, 48/103 (46.6%) showed positive PR hormone expression, and only 19/103 (18.5%) were HER2/neu positive. Age of the cases showed statistical significance with hormonal receptor expressions and triple-negative breast cancer (P < .05), with high-grade cancers being more common among premenopausal women. Conclusion The study found that the mean age of breast cancer was 49 years, invasive carcinoma of no special type (NST) was the commonest histological type, and the majority were of intermediate cancer grade. In total, 53.4% of patients were ER positive, 46.6% were PR positive, 18.5% were HER2/neu positive, and 37.9% were triple negative. Age was the only factor significantly associated with hormonal receptors and triple-negative breast cancers.
