Clinicopathological features, treatment patterns, and prognosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the breast: an NCDB analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast is a rare malignancy. The clinicopathological features, treatment patterns and prognosis of SCC of the breast is still unclear.

Methods

In this study, we performed a 1:4 SCC-IDC (infiltrating ductal carcinoma) matching analysis of patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2014, using the data from the national cancer database. We used Chi-square test to compare the clinicopathological features and treatment patterns between SCC (n?=?686) and IDC (n?=?2744) patients. We used Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox-regression to estimate the survival of SCC and IDC patients.

Results

We observed that SCC patients are more likely to have T3-4, grade III, and ER negative diseases, when compared to IDC patients. Breast conserving surgery (BCS) (58.3% vs 65.4%, p?=?0.048), as well as radiotherapy after BCS (65.3% vs. 83.0%, p?ConclusionsWe conclude that SCC is associated with poorer clinicopathological features, no responses to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and worse clinical outcomes than IDC. The treatment patterns for SCC and IDC are different. Endocrine therapy is necessary for HR-positive SCC patients.

Project description:BackgroundTo better understand the clinicopathological features and prognostic profiles of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast.MethodsInformation on breast cancer was obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004-2016). Comparative analyses were carried out to investigate the heterogeneity in the clinicopathological characteristics and survival outcomes between SCC and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), while propensity score matching was conducted to analyze the variations among baseline characteristics. Prognostic factors for SCC of the breast were successively identified using Cox regression analysis.ResultsA total of 382 SCC patients and 561477 IDC patients were identified in this study. Comparatively, the SCC cohort exhibited a higher proportion of male individuals, poor differentiation, an advanced TNM stage, an increasing percentage of triple-negative (TN) subtype, an increasing rate of organ involvement, and less access to therapeutics. The aggressive profile was consistent in the TN subgroup, with a significantly higher proportion in SCC than in IDC (25.7% vs 6.8%). Prognosis of SCC was profoundly poorer than that of IDC (mOS, 78.6 months and 121.6 months, P < .0001; mBCSS 91.9 months vs 135.6 months, P < .0001), of which the inferior tendency remained stable among disease stage and therapeutic options, while no difference was detected in the 2 subgroups with the TN subtype. The 2-year survival rate was 66.9% and the 5-year survival rate was 51.4%, with the risk factors being older age, bilateral disease, advanced TNM stage, bone and visceral involvement, surgical intervention, radiation treatment, and chemotherapy.ConclusionsThis study systematically analyzed the heterogeneous characteristics of SCC of the breast in comparison with IDC. Squamous cell breast cancer presented with increasing aggressive behavior and inferior prognosis. Prospective studies should focus on this subgroup and introduce individualized therapeutic protocols in clinical practice.

Project description:BackgroundCervical cancer is one of the most common types of carcinoma in women and has high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. Recurrent and metastatic disease remains difficult to treat. Receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) is a key molecule in mediating apoptosis, necroptosis, and inflammatory pathways downstream of death receptors and pattern recognition receptors. This study sought to explore the clinicopathological and prognosis significance of RIPK1 expression in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC).MethodsThe data of 100 CSCC patients who underwent curative surgery from 2019 to 2020 were retrospectively included in this study. We collected the clinicopathological information of the patients and detected RIPK1 protein expression using immunohistochemistry. The Chi-square test and a 1-way analysis of variance were used to make comparisons between groups stratified by RIPK1 expression. A Pearson linear correlation analysis was used to evaluate the association between RIPK1 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients. A Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). A multivariable regression analysis was conducted to identify the risk factors for an impaired prognosis in CSCC.ResultsRIPK1 was found to be overexpressed in the CSCC tissues. RIPK1 expression was significantly associated with age, the preoperative serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) level, lymph node metastasis, invasion depth, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, tumor size, PFS, and OS (P<0.05). The PFS and OS differed significantly among patients with RIPK1 expression (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that RIPK1 was not independent risk factors for PFS and OS in CSCC patients (P>0.05).ConclusionsThe expression of RIPK1 was significantly upregulated in CSCC and was associated with the clinicopathological features of CSCC. RIPK1 might serve as a novel marker that can be used to predict the prognosis of CSCC patients and as a biological target for the treatment of CSCC.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between expression levels of adipokine and clinicopathological features and prognosis of patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) based on immunohistochemical staining and bioinformatics analysis.MethodsThe 8 adipokines in this study included adiponectin (AdipoQ), leptin (LEP), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10 and their receptors (AdipoR1, AdipoR2, LEPR, IL-6R, IL-10RA, IL-10RB). Tissue samples of patients with UTUC who underwent surgical treatment in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2014 to April 2021 were selected for immunohistochemical staining. Their quantitative gene expression data were calculated by H-Score, and relevant clinical and follow-up data were collected retrospectively. Transcription group sequencing data of UTUC patients in Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE134292 dataset) were downloaded for comparison. Chi-square test or t-test was used to compare the expression level of adipokine between non-muscle invasive group and muscle invasive group. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curve were utilized to analyze independent predictors of overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), intravesical recurrence-free survival (IVRFS) in the both cohorts. The P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsIn the study, 63 tissue samples of the patients with UTUC who underwent surgical treatment in Peking University People's Hospital and 57 UTUC patients in GSE134292 dataset were selected. In immunohistochemical cohort, the expressions of AdipoQ (P=0.003 6), AdipoR1 (P=0.006 5), LEP (P=0.007 7), IL-10 (P=0.006 9), and IL-10RA (P=0.008 9) were statistically higher in muscle invasive group. In GSE134292 cohort, the expressions of AdipoR1 (P=0.000 4), AdipoR2 (P=0.000 4), IL-6 (P=0.005 0), IL-10 (P=0.001 7), and IL-10RA (P=0.008 1) were statistically higher in muscle invasive group. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that high IL-10RA expression was an independent predictive factor of IVRFS (P=0.044, HR=0.996, 95%CI: 0.992-0.998) in immunohistochemical cohort, which was confirmed in GSE134292 cohort (P=0.014, HR=0.515, 95%CI: 0.304-0.873).ConclusionThe expression levels of AdipoQ, AdipoR1, IL-10, and IL-10RA were correlated with tumor stage, suggesting that these adipokines played important roles in tumor progression. IL-10RA was an independent predictor of IVRFS, suggesting that IL-10 and its receptor played a critical role in tumor recurrence.
