Transcription profiling of breast cancer samples to predict response to anthracycline/taxane chemotherapy
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: EORTC 10994 phase III breast cancer clinical trial comparing FEC (5-fluorouracil, cyclophosphamide, epirubicin) with ET (epirubicin, docetaxel). 161 needle biopsies of locally advanced or large operable breast tumours were hybridised to Affymetrix X3P chips. The array data from the ER negative tumours (28/65 pathological CR in the FEC arm, 27/59 pathological CR in the ET arm) were used to validate the cell line-based chemotherapy response predictors developed by the Potti/Nevins group at Duke University (doi:10.1038/nm1491). Experiment Overall Design: We analyzed 161 arrays of breast carcinoma.
