Radiomics based on dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) has been used for breast estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status evaluation. However, the radiomic features of peritumoral regions were not thoroughly analyzed. This study aimed to establish and validate the multiregional radiomic signatures (RSs) for the preoperative identification of the ER and PR status in breast cancer. A total of 443 patients with breast cancer were divided into training ( = 356) and validation ( = 87) sets. Radiomic features were extracted from intra- and peritumoral regions on six functional parametric maps from DCE-MRI. A two-sample -test, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and stepwise were used for feature selections. Three RSs for predicting the ER and PR status were constructed using a logistic regression model based on selected intratumoral, peritumoral, and combined intra- and peritumoral radiomic features. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) was used to assess the discriminative performance of three RSs. The AUCs of intra- and peritumoral RSs for identifying the ER status were 0.828/0.791 and 0.755/0.733 in the training and validation sets, respectively. For predicting the PR status, intra- and peritumoral RSs resulted in AUCs of 0.816/0.749 and 0.806/0.708 in the training and validation sets, respectively. Multiregional RSs achieved the best AUCs among three RSs for evaluating the ER (0.851 and 0.833) and PR (0.848 and 0.763) status. In conclusion, multiregional RSs based on functional parametric maps from DCE-MRI showed promising results for preoperatively evaluating the ER and PR status in breast cancer patients. Further studies using a larger cohort from multiple centers are necessary to confirm the reliability of the established models before clinical application.

Early prediction of patient responses to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is essential for the precision treatment of early breast cancer (EBC). Therefore, this study aims to noninvasively and early predict pathological complete response (pCR). We used dynamic ultrasound (US) imaging changes acquired during NACT, along with clinicopathological features, to create a nomogram and construct a machine learning model.

A clinical study in anthracycline-refractory MpBC patients suggested that nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor NG-monomethyl-l-arginine (L-NMMA) may augment anti-tumor efficacy of taxane. We report that NOS blockade potentiated response of human MpBC cell lines and tumors to phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor alpelisib and taxane.
