Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a major concern among the different subtypes of breast cancer (BC) due to the lack of effective treatment. In a previous study by our group aimed at understanding the difference between TNBC and non-TNBC tumors, we identified the gene TBC1 domain family member 9 (), the expression of which was lower in TNBC as compared to non-TNBC tumors. In the present study, analysis of TBC1D9 expression in TNBC ( = 58) and non-TNBC ( = 25) patient tumor samples validated that TBC1D9 expression can differentiate TNBC (low) from non-TNBC (high) samples and that expression of TBC1D9 was inversely correlated with grade and proliferative index. Moreover, we found that downregulation of the gene decreases the proliferation marginally in non-TNBC and was associated with increased migratory and tumorigenic potential in both TNBC and luminal BC cell lines. This increase was mediated by the upregulation of , , , , , and expression in TBC1D9 knockdown cells. Our results suggest that TBC1D9 expression might limit tumor aggressiveness and that it has a differential expression in TNBC vs. non-TNBC tumors.

Adjuvant taxane-based chemotherapy treatment in older patients with early breast cancer: A pooled analysis of five phase III trials from the Hellenic Oncology Research Group.
J Geriatr Oncol
January 2025
Hellenic Oncology Research Group (HORG), 55, Lomvardou str, 11470 Athens, Greece.
Introduction: The use of taxanes in the adjuvant setting of early breast cancer (BC) confers survival benefits, however, their role in older patients merits further study. This retrospective pooled analysis of randomized controlled trials conducted by the Hellenic Oncology Research Group (HORG) aims to assess the efficacy and safety of taxane-based adjuvant chemotherapy in older women with BC.
Materials And Methods: Five phase III trials containing a taxane, conducted by HORG between 1995 and 2013, were included in a patient-data pooled analysis.
Evaluating the Accuracy of Relative Value Unit and Operative Time Changes in Breast Reconstruction.
Plast Reconstr Surg
December 2024
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY.
Background: As part of the 2021 changes to breast reconstruction CPT codes, the Relative Value Scale Update Committee (RUC) recommended adjustments to work RVUs (wRVUs) based on newly surveyed intraoperative times. Our objective was to gauge the accuracy of operative time and wRVU adjustments using national data as a benchmark.
Methods: We queried the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database for operative times from 2005-2021 for reevaluated CPT codes.
Effects of White Noise Intervention on Sleep Quality and Immunological Indicators of Patients with Breast Cancer Undergoing Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy.
Noise Health
January 2025
Department of Geriatric Health Internal Medicine, Qingdao Municipal Hospital, Qingdao 266000, China.
Objective: Evaluate the effect of white noise intervention on sleep quality and immunological indicators of patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).
Methods: From January 2020 to December 2022, 104 newly diagnosed female patients (the number of people who met the inclusion criteria) with breast cancer who were confirmed to be preoperative NAC by puncture pathology were selected for a randomised single-blind trial. The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 52 cases in each group.
Trastuzumab-Pertuzumab Plus Eribulin or Taxane as First-Line Chemotherapy for Human Epidermal Growth Factor 2-Positive Locally Advanced/Metastatic Breast Cancer: The Randomized Noninferiority Phase III EMERALD Trial.
J Clin Oncol
January 2025
Department of Breast Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.
Purpose: Trastuzumab-pertuzumab (HP) plus taxane is a current standard first-line therapy for recurrent or metastatic human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)+ breast cancer (BC). We investigated noninferiority of eribulin to a taxane when combined with dual HER2 blockade as first-line systemic treatment for locally advanced/metastatic HER2+ BC.
Methods: In the phase III EMERALD trial (target sample size, 480; ClinicalTrials.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, and mammogram screening can reduce breast cancer mortality. Healthcare providers' perspectives can have an impact on encouraging females to attend mammogram screening.
Objective: To understand healthcare providers' (HCPs) perspectives in initiating discussion on mammogram screening, and their perceived barriers and enablers to screening in women.
