The second leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide is breast cancer (BC), and despite significant advances in BC therapies, a significant proportion of patients develop metastasis and disease recurrence. Currently used treatments, like radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and hormone replacement therapy, result in poor responses and high recurrence rates. Alternative therapies are therefore needed for this type of cancer. Cancer patients may benefit from immunotherapy, a novel treatment strategy in cancer treatment...

Bilateral primary breast cancer (BPBC) patients have a worse prognosis. Tools for accurately predicting mortality risk in patients with BPBC are lacking in clinical practice. We aimed to develop a clinically useful prediction model for the death of BPBC patients. A total of 19,245 BPBC patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2004 and 2015 were randomly divided into the training set ( n  = 13,471) and test set (5,774). Models for predicting the 1-, 3- and 5-year death risk of BPBC patients were developed...

BACKGROUND: Metastasis is the leading cause of mortality in patients with breast cancer (BC). Studies demonstrate that circular RNAs (circRNAs) were involved in BC progression, while the molecular mechanisms remain largely unclear. METHODS: The microArray circRNA profiles were used to explore the differential expression circRNAs in BC and paracancerous normal tissues, and the quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to validate their expression level in clinical samples and cell lines...

RATIONALE: Chinese women topped the list of new breast cancers, the first diagnosed gastric metastasis and bone metastasis is extremely infrequent. The clinical and pathological diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer is difficult. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of the first diagnosis of breast cancer with both gastric metastasis and bone metastasis. CASE REPORT: The female patient was found to have abdominal distension for 15 days with nausea and vomiting...

INTRODUCTION: Worry about cancer recurrence is identified as the most common psychological burdens experienced by cancer patients and survivors. The present study aimed to determine the predictors of worry about cancer recurrence among women with breast cancer.

PURPOSE: Mammography (MG) is the standard imaging in surveillance of women with a personal history of breast cancer or DCIS (PHBC), supplemented with ultrasound. Contrast Enhanced Mammography (CEM) has higher sensitivity than MG and US. We report the performance of CEM compared with MG ± US. METHODS: A retrospective study of patients undergoing their first surveillance CEM in an Australian hospital setting between June 2006 and October 2020. Cases where a patient was recalled for assessment were identified, recording radiology, pathology and treatment details...

Antibody drug-conjugates (ADCs) have revolutionized the treatment of many types of cancer, including breast cancer. Recently, two new ADCs have been approved, trastuzumab deruxtecan and sacituzumab govitecan; both have demonstrated impressive improvements in overall survival, trastuzumab deruxtecan in all three subtypes of metastatic breast cancer and sacituzumab govitecan in luminal and triple negative metastatic breast cancer. These drugs are the results of significant progress and innovation in the construction of the three components of an ADC, the monoclonal antibody, the payload, and the linker, and of the discovery of new target antigens...

The "Thalidomide tragedy" is a landmark in the history of the pharmaceutical industry. Despite limited clinical trials, there is a continuous effort to investigate thalidomide as a drug for cancer and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lepromatous leprosy, and COVID-19. This review focuses on the possibilities of targeting inflammation by repurposing thalidomide for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Articles were searched from the Scopus database, sorted, and selected articles were reviewed...

BACKGROUND: Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) represent a robust biological prognostic biomarker in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, the contribution of different subsets of immune cells is unclear. We investigated the prognostic value of immune markers, including stromal TILs (sTILs), CD8+ T and FOPX3+ T cells, PD-1 and PD-L1 in non-metastatic TNBC. METHODS: In total, 259 patients with Stage I-III TNBC were reviewed. The density of sTILs along with the presence of total (t), stromal (s), and intratumoral (i) CD8+ T cells and FOPX3+ T cells were evaluated by haematoxylin and eosin and immunohistochemical staining...

INTRODUCTION: Cytosteatonecrosis (CTN) is a frequent postoperative complication after breast autologous reconstruction using DIEP (deep inferior epigastric perforator) flap. CTN radiological diagnostic reveals different types of lesions, as nodes or extended fat necrosis, which become in some cases infected, or pass for tumor recurrence after breast cancer treatment. CTN is caused by intraoperative ischemia of the flap, and no current method can prevent postoperative CTN development after DIEP breast reconstruction...

Patient demographics, testing indications, management decisions, and surveillance strategies were recorded. RESULTS: Sixty-two patients were found to have deleterious mutations: 14 (23%) with a PALB2 mutation, 30 (48%) with a CHEK2 mutation, and 18 (29%) patients with an ATM mutation...

Triple-negative breast cancer is a sub-type of clinically and molecularly heterogeneous malignant disease with a worse prognosis and earlier recurrence than HER2-amplified or hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. Because of the lack of personalized therapy, genetic information is essential to early diagnosing, identifying the high risk of recurrence, guiding therapeutic management, and monitoring treatment efficiency. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a novel noninvasive, timely, and tumor specified biomarker that reliably reflects the comprehensive tumor genetic profiles...

In recent years, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated cancer therapies have been widely recognized for their high selectivity and good biological safety. However, due to the difficulties of endogenous tumor microenvironment (TME), penetration of tumor tissues and integration of multimodal tumor ablation, the treatment with traditional therapies could not achieve satisfactory tumor inhibition effects. Here, a doxorubicin (DOX)-glucose oxidase (GOx) dual-loaded and poly (2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz) decorated magnetic polydopamine nanoparticles (Fe3 O4 [email protected]@PEOz, FDPGP) were constructed for tumor ablation...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a poor prognosis due to the lack of specific and highly effective therapeutic agents. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are one of the main factors contributing to TNBC relapse and metastasis. Therefore, targeting CSCs selectively with small molecules is a novel strategy for drug development. In this study, the natural product harmine (HM) was identified as a hit compound from 2632 natural product monomers based on phenotypic screening of a 2D assay and patient-derived organoid (PDO) model that was established from a patient who had multiple drug resistance and various visceral and contralateral breast metastases...

While there is good evidence that exercise is an effective adjunct therapy to cancer care, little is known about its value for money. The aim of this systematic review is to explore the available evidence pertaining to the cost-effectiveness of exercise interventions following cancer. A search of eight online databases (CINAHL, the Cochrane Library (NHSEED), Econlit, Embase, PsycInfo, PubMed, Scopus, Web of science) was first conducted on 26 March 2021 and updated on 8 March 2022. Only economic evaluations with results in the form of incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) were included...

BACKGROUND: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer associated with an aggressive clinical course. Adjuvant chemotherapy reduces the risk of recurrence and improves survival in patients with node-positive TNBC. The benefit of anthracycline plus taxane (ATAX) regimens compared with non-anthracycline-containing, taxane-based regimens (TAX) in older women with node-positive TNBC is not well characterised. METHODS: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare database, we identified 1106 women with node-positive TNBC diagnosed at age 66 years and older between 2010 and 2015...
