Low Expression of PALB2 is Associated With Poor Survival in Chinese Women With Primary Breast Cancer.
Clinical Breast Cancer 2023 March 9
BACKGROUND: PALB2 plays a crucial role in genome stability and the DNA repair process, and its mutation is associated with a moderate to high risk of breast cancer. However, the status and prognostic role of PALB2 expression in breast cancer are still unclear.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The expression level of PALB2 mRNA was evaluated by using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in core biopsy samples from 563 primary breast cancer tissues.
RESULTS: In the entire cohort, low expression of PALB2 mRNA was significantly associated with poor survival (low vs. intermediate: DFS, adjusted HR = 1.79, 95% CI = 1.21-2.65, P = .003; DDFS, adjusted HR = 2.07, 95% CI = 1.34-3.20, P = .001; DSS, adjusted HR = 2.59, 95% CI = 1.45-4.64, P = .001; OS, adjusted HR = 2.77, 95% CI = 1.56-4.92, P = .001; low vs. high: DFS, adjusted HR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.06-2.35, P = .026; DDFS, adjusted HR = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.08-2.55, P = .020; DSS, adjusted HR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.00-3.03, P = .048; OS, adjusted HR = 1.59, 95% CI = 0.95-2.67, P = .08). Notably, among hormone receptor (HR)-positive/HER2-negative subtype, patients with low PALB2 expression also had significantly worse outcomes (low vs. intermediate: DFS, adjusted HR = 2.33, 95% CI = 1.32-4.13, P = .004; DDFS, adjusted HR = 2.78, 95% CI = 1.47-5.27, P < .001; DSS, adjusted HR = 3.08, 95% CI = 1.27-7.43, P = .013; OS, adjusted HR = 3.15, 95% CI = 1.32-7.50, P = .010; low vs. high: DFS, adjusted HR = 1.84, 95% CI = 1.04-3.28, P = .04; DDFS, adjusted HR = 1.82, 95% CI = 0.99-3.36, P = .05; DSS, adjusted HR = 2.06, 95% CI = 0.87-4.86, P = .10; OS, adjusted HR = 1.54, 95% CI = 0.71-3.33, P = .28).
CONCLUSION: Breast cancer patients with low expression of mRNA have a poor survival, suggesting that patients with PALB2 low expression may be the potential beneficiaries for PARP inhibitors therapy.
