Purpose: We aim to evaluate the prognostic significance of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte on residual disease (RD-TIL) in HER2+ patients with breast cancer who failed to achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after anti-HER2+ chemotherapy (CT)-based neoadjuvant treatment (NAT). We assessed the feasibility of combining the prognostic information provided by residual cancer burden (RCB) and RD-TILs into a composite score (RCB+TIL).
Experimental Design: HER2+ patients with breast cancer treated with CT+anti-HER2-based NAT at three institutions were retrospectively included.
Article Synopsis
- * Though rare, extraskeletal ES can occur in soft tissues, with very few reported cases involving the urogenital tract, specifically the ureter.
- * The article presents the first Italian case of primary ES in the ureter, emphasizing the need for increased awareness and diagnostic consideration for similar rare occurrences in young patients.
