Association of PTP1B with Outcomes of Breast Cancer Patients Who Underwent Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy.

PTP1B is involved in the oncogenesis of breast cancer. In addition, neoadjuvant therapy has been widely used in breast cancer; thus, a measurement to assess survival improvement could be pathological complete response (pCR). Our objective was to associate PTP1B overexpression with outcomes of breast cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Drug-induced adverse reactions (ADR) include any undesirable pharmacological effect that occurs following drug administration at therapeutic doses. The appearance of ADR significantly limits the use of drugs in as much as their clinical symptoms may range from very mild discomfort such as cutaneous rash, up to very severe, or even fatal tissue necrolysis such as the Stevens Johnson syndrome.One of the most frequently involved organ during ADR is the skin.
