Whole genome expression profiling of triple negative breast tumors in 226 African American women


ABSTRACT: Purpose: Black/African American (AA) women are twice as likely to be diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) compared to whites, an aggressive breast cancer subtype associated with poor prognosis. There are no routinely used targeted clinical therapies for TNBC; thus there is a clear need to identify prognostic markers and potential therapeutic targets. Methods: We evaluated expression of 27,016 genes in 155 treatment-naïve TN tumors from AA women in Detroit. Associations with survival were evaluated using Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for stage and age at diagnosis, and p-values were corrected using a false discovery rate. Our validation sample consisted of 158 TN tumors (54 AA) from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Meta-analyses were performed to obtain summary estimates by combining TCGA and Detroit AA cohort results. Results: In the Detroit AA cohort, CLCA2 [Hazard ratio (HR)=1.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.31-1.86, nominal p=5.1x10-7, FDR p=0.014], SPIC [HR=1.47, 95%CI 1.26-1.73, nominal p=1.8x10-6, FDR p=0.022], and MIR4311 [HR=1.57, 95% CI 1.31-1.92, nominal p=2.5x10-5, FDR p=0.022] expression were associated with overall survival. Further adjustment for treatment and breast cancer specific survival analysis did not substantially alter effect estimates. Meta-analysis with TCGA data showed that CLCA2 and SPIC were associated with overall survival for TNBC among AA women. Conclusions: We identified three potential prognostic markers for TNBC in AA women, for which SPIC may be an AA-specific prognostic marker.
