Background: Early-phase clinical trials offer a unique opportunity for patients with cancer. These trials often mandate biopsies to collect tumor tissue for research purposes, requiring patients to undergo invasive procedures. Some trials mandate molecular prescreening, but the success of these analyses relies on the quality and quantity of the tested materials.

The tumor suppressor is frequently mutated in hormone receptor-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer (BC), contributing to tumor aggressiveness. Traditional ancillary methods like immunohistochemistry (IHC) to assess functionality face pre- and post-analytical challenges. This proof-of-concept study employed a deep learning (DL) algorithm to predict mutational status from H&E-stained whole slide images (WSIs) of BC tissue.

Mutations in the estrogen receptor alpha gene (ESR1) can lead to resistance to endocrine therapy (ET) in hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/ HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC). ESR1 mutations can be detected in up to 40 % of patients pretreated with ET in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Data from prospective randomized trials highlight those patients with HR+/HER2- MBC with detectable ESR1 mutations experience better outcomes when receiving novel selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs).

Background And Aim: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor of invasive breast cancer with highly variable clinical behavior, but risk stratification is still challenging. We sought to identify immune-related gene expression signatures of pure DCIS associated with different risks of breast cancer recurrence.
Methods: A retrospective nested case-control study of 143 pure DCIS was performed including 70 women with subsequent ipsilateral breast event (IBE, in situ or invasive; cases) and 73 DCIS women with no IBE and matched for age, tumor size, treatment, hormone receptors/HER2 status, and follow-up time (controls).
