Project description:Retrospective series of primary breast cancer patients who received surgery between 1989 and 1992. Patients received adjuvant chemotherapy and/or adjuvant hormone therapy, or no adjuvant treatment. Tamoxifen was used as endocrine therapy for 5 years in ER+ BC patients. Patients who were <50 years of age, with lymph node positive tumors, or ER– and/or >3 cm in diameter, received adjuvant cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and 5-fluorouracil (CMF) for six cycles, in a thrice weekly intravenous regimen. Patients >50 years of age with ER–, lymph node–positive tumors also received CMF.

Project description:Analysis of 104 breast cancer biopsies (removed prior to any treatment with tamoxifen or chemotherapeutic agents) from patients aged between 31 years and 89 years at the time of diagnosis (mean age = 58 years). Twenty were less than 50 years and seventy-seven women were 50 years, or older, at diagnosis. The size of the tumours ranged between 0.6 cm and 8.0 cm (mean = 2.79 cm). Eighteen tumours were T1 (<2 cm) in maximal dimension; 83 were T2 (2M-bM-^@M-^S5 cm) and 3 tumours were T3 (>5 cm). Eighty-two were invasive ductal carcinoma, 17 were invasive lobular and five were tumours of special type (two tubular and three mucinous). Eleven tumours were grade 1; 40 were grade 2; and 53 were grade 3. Sixty-seven tumours were oestrogen receptor (ER) positive and 34 were ER negative (ER status was determined by Enzyme Immuno-Assay (EIA); a positive result was defined as more than 200 fmol/g protein). ER status was not available for 3 patients. Forty-five tumours had no axillary metastases and 59 tumours had metastasised to axillary lymph nodes. Sixty-nine women were treated with post-operative tamoxifen; 26 did not receive tamoxifen. Fifty patients were treated with adjuvant systemic chemotherapy (CMF +/M-bM-^HM-^R adriamycin); 45 patients did not receive chemotherapy. Details regarding tamoxifen and systemic chemotherapy were not available for 9 patients. Maximal follow-up was 3,026 days with a mean follow-up of 1,887 days. 17 normal breast tissues were also assayed. Gene expression profiling of 104 breast cancer and 17 normal breast biopsies.

Project description:Background Currently, no gene-expression signature (GES) established from node-positive cohorts, able to predict breast cancer evolution after systemic adjuvant chemotherapy, exists. Methods Gene-expression profiles of 252 node-positive patients (median follow-up: 7.7 years), mostly included in a randomized clinical trial (PACS01), receiving systemic adjuvant regimen, were determined by means of cDNA custom array representing 5,776 distinct genes. Findings In the training cohort, we established a 38-GES for the purpose of predicting time to distant metastasis. The 38-GES yielded unadjusted hazard ratio of 4.86 (95% CI=2.76-8.56). Even when adjusted with the two best clinicopathological prognostic scoring: NPI and Adjuvant!, 38-GES HR were 3.30 (1.81-5.99) and 3.40 (1.85-6.24), respectively. Furthermore, 38-GES improved mostly NPI and Adjuvant! intermediate-risk classified patients. NPI intermediate-risk patients (7-year MFS=87.2%) were divided into 2/3 (7-year MFS=95.5%) close to NPI low-risk group and 1/3 (7-year MFS=69.3%) close to NPI high-risk group (HR=6.97 [2.51-19.36]). Adjuvant! intermediate-risk patients (7-year MFS=88.0%) were divided into 2/3 (7-year MFS=94.8%) close to Adjuvant! low-risk group and 1/3 (7-year MFS=71.7%) close to Adjuvant! high-risk group (HR=5.31 [5.38-11.87]). The 38-GES was validated on gene-expression datasets from three external node-positive breast cancer subcohorts (n=224) generated from different microarray platforms. The 38-GES yielded unadjusted HR=2.95 (1.74-5.01). Furthermore, 38-GES showed performance in supplementary cohorts with different lymph-node status and endpoint (1,031 new patients). Interpretation The 38-GES represents a robust tool able to type systemic adjuvant treated node-positive patients at high risk of metastatic relapse, and especially powerful to separate NPI or Adjuvant! intermediate-risk node-positive patients.

Project description:Trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed to the HER2 protein, is the standard-of-care treatment for patients with HER2 positive breast cancer, reducing the risk of relapse and death in patients. Nonetheless, some patients relapse after treatment, underscoring the need to identify patients for whom chemotherapy + trastuzumab is adequate versus patients requiring additional drugs. To search for genes predictive of relapse in HER2-positive breast carcinoma patients treated with adjuvant trastuzumab, we conducted gene expression profiling analysis in 53 cases treated in the clinic with doxorubicin/paclitaxel (AT) followed by cyclophosphamide/methotrexate/fluorouracil (CMF) and trastuzumab. Gene expression profiling was performed using RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from 53 patients with primary HER2-positive (HER2+) tumors. The series consists in 23 relapsed and 30 non-relapsed cases with similar clinical-pathological characteristics (size, pathological lymph node involvement and estrogen receptor positivity) (3-year median follow up).

Project description:Purpose: Despite the benefits of estrogen receptor (ER)-targeted endocrine therapies in breast cancer, many tumors develop resistance. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been suggested as promising biomarkers and we here evaluated whether a miRNA profile could be identified, sub-grouping ER+ breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant Tamoxifen with regards to probability of recurrence. Experimental design: Global miRNA analysis was performed on 152 ER+ primary tumors from high-risk breast cancer patients with an initial discovery set of 52 patients, followed by 2 independent test sets (N=60 and N=40). All patients had received adjuvant Tamoxifen as mono-therapy (median clinical follow-up: 4.6 years) and half had developed distant recurrence (median time-to-recurrence: 3.5 years). MiRNA expression was examined by unsupervised hierarchical clustering and supervised analysis, including clinical parameters as co-variables.

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) is the seventh most common solid malignancy in the United States, accounting for more than 47,000 new cancer cases. Surgery of patients clinically diagnosed with lymph node metastasis (N+) also involves neck dissection, which causes disfigurement and pain. However, after histological examination, more than 30% of clinically N+ patients turn out to be metastasis-free (N0). Clinically negative lymph node patients have occult node metastasis in up to 50% of the cases. Within two years of follow-up these patients may or may not develop metastatic disease. On the other hand, around 50% of N0 patients do not have occult node metastasis. Therefore, many N0 patients undergo neck dissection unnecessarily. Due to limitations in detecting lymph node metastasis before surgery, both N+ and N0 patients may receive inappropriate treatment. This indicates that a better understanding of the biology of HNSCC is urgently needed. Despite tumor complexity, many studies have tried unsuccessfully to test single genes to be used as prognostic markers in HNSCC. A group of tumor samples can be characterized in terms of the behavior of modules. These modules include clusters of coexpressed genes, such as genes that belong to the same pathway or functional category. Cancer is a multifaceted phenomenon that involves activation and/or disruption of various cellular processes. Thus, the identification of pathways or group of genes such as those involved in the development of lymph node metastasis and recurrent disease may help understanding the complex biology of cancer.
