Article Synopsis
- The study aims to improve predictions of disease outcomes for breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) by analyzing clinical and histopathological data.
- Researchers evaluated a cohort of 257 Finnish breast cancer patients over 13 years, identifying significant prognostic factors and previously overlooked histological features that correlate with treatment response and survival.
- The findings suggest the importance of re-assessing biomarkers post-treatment and developing personalized surveillance and treatment strategies based on comprehensive evaluations of patient data and risk factors.
Purpose: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease lacking specific biomarkers to guide treatment decisions. We evaluated the combined prognostic impact of clinical features and novel biomarkers of cell cycle-progression in age-dependent subgroups of TNBC patients.
Methods: One hundred forty seven TNBC patients with complete clinical data and up to 18 year follow-up were collected from Turku University Hospital, Finland.

Purpose: Tumor inflammatory response was evaluated as a prognostic feature in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and compared with the clinical prognosticators of breast cancer and selected biomarkers of cancer cell proliferation.
Methods: TNBC patients (n = 179) with complete clinical data and up to 18-year follow-up were obtained from Auria biobank, Turku University Hospital, Turku, Finland. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and several subtypes of inflammatory cells detected with immunohistochemistry were evaluated in different tumor compartments in full tissue sections and tissue microarrays.
Purpose: To visualize by in situ hybridization (ISH) the levels of a set of proliferation-associated miRNAs and to evaluate their impact and clinical applicability in prognostication of invasive breast carcinoma.
Methods: Tissue specimen from breast carcinoma patients were investigated for miRNAs-494, -205, -21 and -126. Prognostic associations for levels of miRNAs were analyzed based on complete clinical data and up to 22.
Two sisters who died at the age of 2.5 years and 5 weeks are described. Both showed signs of panhypopituitarism.
