Article Synopsis
- Apocrine differentiation and androgen receptor (AR) positivity are specific characteristics in a type of breast cancer called triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that might help predict treatment outcomes.
- This study analyzed 232 TNBC patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) to determine how apocrine features, AR status, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) influenced their response to treatment.
- The findings suggest that while apocrine morphology relates to lower chemotherapy response rates, AR expression does not significantly impact outcomes, highlighting the importance of recognizing apocrine features in clinical settings.
Objectives: A cancer pain clinic (CPC) service is a thorough, comprehensive consultation service for patients with uncontrolled cancer pain. The aim of this study was to determine the success of a new CPC service with enrollment via electronic health record-based automatic screening at 1 cancer center in Korea.
