Prognostic Significance of O-GlcNAc and PKM2 in Hormone Receptor-Positive and HER2-Nonenriched Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Predictive metabolic biomarkers for the recurrent luminal breast cancer (BC) with hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2)-negative are lacking. High levels of O-GlcNAcylation (O-GlcNAc) and pyruvate kinase isoenzyme M2 (PKM2) are associated with malignancy in BC; however, the association with the recurrence risk remains unclear. We first conduct survival analysis by using the METABRIC dataset to assess the correlation of PKM2 expression with BC clinical outcomes. Next, patients with HR+/HER2- luminal BC were recruited for PKM2/O-GlcNAc testing. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were performed to evaluate the 10-year DFS predicted outcome. Survival analysis of the METABRIC dataset revealed that high expression of PKM2 was significantly associated with worse overall survival in luminal BC. The high expression of O-GlcNAc or PKM2 was a significant independent marker for poor 10-year DFS using immunohistochemical analysis. The PKM2 or O-GlcNAc status was a significant predictor of DFS, with the combination of PKM2-O-GlcNAc status and T stage greatly enhancing the predictive outcome potential. In summary, O-GlcNAc, PKM2, and T stage serve as good prognostic discriminators in HR+/HER2- luminal BC.

Project description:PurposeMore accurate prediction of patient outcome based on molecular subtype is required to identify patients who will benefit from specific treatments.MethodsWe selected novel 16 candidate prognostic genes, including 10 proliferation-related genes (p-genes) and 6 immune response-related genes (i-genes), from the gene list identified in our previous study. We then analyzed the association between their expression, measured by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-PCR in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, and clinical outcome in 819 breast cancer patients according to molecular subtype.ResultsThe prognostic significance of clinical and gene variables varied according to the molecular subtype. Univariate analysis showed that positive lymph node status was significantly correlated with the increased risk of distant metastasis in all subtypes except the hormone receptor-negative, HER2-positive (HR-/HER2+) subtype. Most p-genes were significantly associated with poor prognosis in patients with the HR+/HER2- subtype, whereas i-genes correlated with a favorable outcome in patients with HR-/HER2+ breast cancer. In HR-/HER2+ breast cancer, four genes (three i-genes BTN3A2, CD2, and TRBC1 and the p-gene MMP11) were significantly associated with distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS). A new prognostic model for HR-/HER2+ breast cancer based on the expression of MMP11 and CD2 was developed and the DMFS for patients in the high-risk group according to our model was significantly lower than that for those in the low-risk group. Multivariate analyses revealed that our risk score is an independent prognostic factor for DMFS. Moreover, C-index showed that our risk score has a superior prognostic performance to traditional clinicopathological factors.ConclusionsOur new prognostic model for HR-/HER2+ breast cancer provides more accurate information on the risk of distant metastasis than traditional clinical prognostic factors and may be used to identify patients with a good prognosis in this aggressive subtype of breast cancer.

Project description:Single estrogen receptor (ER)+ and progesterone receptor (PR)+ tumors account for about10% of all breast cancers. However, the prognosis of these single hormone receptor-positive (HR+) tumor remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the characteristics of single HR+ breast tumors according to HER2 status in order to improve the treatment of patients with single HR+. Patients from the SEER program (2010-2016) were divided into ER+PR-, ER-PR+, ER+PR+ and ER-PR- molecular subtypes stratified by HER2 status. Overall survival (OS) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) were compared by Kaplan-Meier curves after propensity score matching (PSM). A total of 203,406 patients were enrolled. Single ER+ and PR+ tumors account for 11.9% of the total population. For HER2- subtype, patients with ER+PR- (n = 16906 pairs) and ER-PR+ (n = 1395 pairs) had worse prognoses than those with ER+PR+ with hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of 1.52 (1.41-1.64) and 2.25 (1.76-2.88) for OS; and 1.94 (1.76-2.14) and 2.57 (1.94-3.40) for BCSS, respectively; ER+PR- showed a better prognosis than ER-PR+ (n = 1394 pairs) and ER-PR- (n = 9626 pairs) with HR (95% CI) of 1.32 (1.06-1.65) and 1.44 (1.33-1.55) for OS, and 1.32 (1.03-1.69) and 1.46 (1.34-1.60) for BCSS, respectively; ER-PR+ had a similar prognosis relative to ER-PR- (n = 1395 pairs) after PSM. For HER2+ subtype, patients with ER-PR+, ER+PR-, and ER-PR- had similar OS and BCSS; ER+PR+ showed a similar prognosis compare with ER-PR+ (n = 535 pairs), but had better OS and BCSS than ER+PR- (n = 5376 pairs) and ER-PR- (n = 8143 pairs) after PSM. In addition, ER+PR+HER2+ showed similar OS and better BCSS compared with ER+PR+HER2- after PSM. In conclusion, single PR+ patients experienced poorer prognoses than single ER+ patients, and may be treated as ER-PR- patients in HER2- subtype. In HER2+ patients, both single ER+ and single PR+ cases showed similar prognoses compared with ER-PR- cases, and may be treated as ER-PR- patients.
