The Changing Landscape of Breast Cancer: How Biology Drives Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is the most prevalent life-threatening cancer in women. Optimizing therapy to increase cure rates in early stage disease, and improving life expectancy and palliation for advanced stages, are goals driving major areas of research. The armamentarium of targeted treatments for breast cancer is ever expanding as understanding of breast cancer biology deepens. A revolution in our treatment was heralded a decade ago by the introduction of trastuzumab for human epidermal receptor-2 positive (HER2+) disease resulting in remarkable reductions in recurrence and improvements in overall survival (OS). Advances continue to be made in other breast cancer subtypes targeting key activating pathways for therapeutic development. However, for these other targeted agents, improvement in OS has been elusive. This article focuses on the development of targeted therapy in breast cancer focusing primarily on the last 5 years, to illustrate that as we understand the complex pathways allowing the dysregulated cell to become malignant, it also propels us closer towards the promise of precision and personalized medicine.

Herein this "proteogenomic" approach was applied to 122 treatment-naive primary breast cancers purposely accrued to preserve post-translational modifications, including protein phosphorylation and acetylation. Proteogenomics challenged standard breast cancer diagnoses, provided detailed analysis of the ERBB2 amplicon, defined tumor subsets that could benefit from immune checkpoint therapy and allowed more accurate assessment of Rb status for the prediction of CDK4/6 inhibitor responsiveness. Phosphoproteomic profiles uncovered novel associations between tumor suppressor loss and targetable kinases. Acetylproteome analysis highlighted acetylation on key nuclear proteins involved in the DNA damage response and revealed cross-talk between cytoplasmic and mitochondrial acetylation and metabolism. Our results underscore the potential of proteogenomics for the clinical investigation of breast cancer through more accurate annotation of targetable pathways and biological features of this remarkably heterogeneous malignancy.Genomic Data for Breast Cancer tumors is available from the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC), <a href="https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/projects/CPTAC-2" target="_blank">here</a> Gene Expression data in GCT file format is available under the metadata section below Proteomic Data Analysis for Breast Cancer tumors (PSMs and Summary Reports) is available from the CPTAC Common Data Analysis Pipeline (Study S039 Early Data Release), <a href="/study-summary/S039" target="_blank">here</a> <ul><li>Dataset imported into MassIVE from <a href="https://cptac-data-portal.georgetown.edu/study-summary/S060">https://cptac-data-portal.georgetown.edu/study-summary/S060</a> on 06/05/21</li></ul>
