HR negative + HER-2 positive

Six cycles of docetaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab led to a 59% reduction in the primary tumour and complete radiological resolution of the splenic lesion. Although extremely rare, ISM can present as the initial manifestation of de novo metastatic breast cancer. Awareness of this possibility may facilitate early systemic therapy and obviate the need for diagnostic splenectomy.

In patients with HR-HER2 + EBC, the neoadjuvant therapy with trastuzumab, pyrotinib and dalpiciclib has promising activity and manageable toxicity. Further investigation is needed.

While curative-intent GCT was associated with improved survival in this Malawian cohort, treatment completion rates were suboptimal. Resource-stratified guidelines must be paired with locally relevant, multilevel implementation strategies to target barriers to treatment completion.

The binding energy range for these ligands against their respective targets was calculated to be between -15 and -5 kcal/mol. Finally, based on general and common rules in medicinal chemistry, we selected 2, 3, 3, and 8 new ligands with high priority for further studies in the EGFR+HER2, ER, NF-κB, and PR classes, respectively.

The expression of the PD-L1 and MET genes is remarkably associated with worse tumor clinicopathologic features and poor prognosis in patients with breast cancer. Further investigations using combination drug regimens targeting PD-L1 and MET are important, particularly in breast tumors expressing high levels of both proteins.

Among patients with a solitary extracranial metastasis from breast cancer, TNBC was associated with the poorest OS and DPFS rates. Identification of other significant prognostic factors for oligometastatic breast cancer patients may inform guidelines for metastasis directed treatments.

In our study, a third of patients with stage II-III hormone receptor-negative and HER2-positive breast cancer had a complete pathological response after only three cycles of neoadjuvant systemic therapy. A complete response on breast MRI could help identify early complete responders in patients who had hormone receptor negative tumours. An imaging-based strategy might limit the duration of chemotherapy in these patients, reduce side-effects, and maintain quality of life if confirmed by the analysis of the 3-year event-free survival primary endpoint. Better monitoring tools are needed for patients with hormone receptor-positive and HER2-positive breast cancer.

Txnrd1High MDA-MB-231 cells exhibit significant ROS generation and reduced viability after doxorubicin treatment compared to Txnrd1Low MCF7 cells. Corroborating with findings from meta-analysis, Txnrd1 depletion leads to decreased survival, enhanced sensitivity to radiation induced killing, poor scratch-wound healing, and reduced invasion potential in MDA-MB-231 cells. Thus, Txnrd1 appears to be a potential predictor of recurrence, metastasis and therapy response in breast cancer patients.
