Clinicopathological differences and survival benefit in ER+/PR+/HER2+ vs ER+/PR-/HER2+ breast cancer subtypes.
Introduction: Breast cancer subtypes based on estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression have significant implications for prognosis. HER2-positive tumors historically demonstrated poorer survival, but anti-HER2 targeted therapy improved outcomes. However, hormone receptor (HR)-positive patients may experience reduced benefit due to HER2-HR signaling crosstalk.
Methods: Data from two databases, the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Breast Cancer Data Base (SJTUBCDB) and the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, were analyzed. Propensity score adjustments were used to balance patient characteristics between ER+/PR+/HER2+ and ER+/PR-/HER2+ subtypes. Kaplan-Meier survival curves estimated disease-free survival (DFS), breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS), overall survival (OS) for these subtypes in the SJTUBCDB, while subgroup analyses using multivariable models were performed based on menstruation, pN stage, HER2-targeted therapy, and endocrinotherapy.
Results: The ER+/PR+/HER2+ group showed significantly better DFS and BCSS than the ER+/PR-/HER2+ group, particularly in postmenopausal and pN0 stage patients. Survival outcomes were similar after anti-HER2 therapy or endocrine aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy in both groups. However, among patients receiving selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) treatment, those in the ER+/PR-/HER2+ group had a significantly worse prognosis compared to ER+/PR+/HER2+ patients.
Conclusions: HER2-positive breast cancers with different HR statuses exhibit distinct clinicopathological features and survival outcomes. Patients in the ER+/PR+/HER2+ group generally experience better survival, particularly in postmenopausal and pN0 stage patients. Treatment strategies should consider HR status and specific modalities for better personalized management.
期刊介绍:
Breast Cancer, the official journal of the Japanese Breast Cancer Society, publishes articles that contribute to progress in the field, in basic or translational research and also in clinical research, seeking to develop a new focus and new perspectives for all who are concerned with breast cancer. The journal welcomes all original articles describing clinical and epidemiological studies and laboratory investigations regarding breast cancer and related diseases. The journal will consider five types of articles: editorials, review articles, original articles, case reports, and rapid communications. Although editorials and review articles will principally be solicited by the editors, they can also be submitted for peer review, as in the case of original articles. The journal provides the best of up-to-date information on breast cancer, presenting readers with high-impact, original work focusing on pivotal issues.
