Navigating the complex landscape of breast cancer treatment involves distinct strategies for luminal and triple-negative subtypes. While neoadjuvant chemotherapy historically dominates the approach for aggressive triple-negative tumors, recent evidence highlights the transformative impact of immunotherapy, alongside chemotherapy, in reshaping treatment paradigms. In luminal cancers, endocrine therapy, notably aromatase inhibitors, demonstrates promising outcomes in postmenopausal patients with low-grade luminal A tumors. However, integrating targeted therapies like CDK4/6 inhibitors in neoadjuvant setting remains inconclusive. Identifying predictive factors for treatment response, especially in luminal tumors, poses a challenge, emphasizing the necessity for ongoing research. A multidisciplinary approach, tailored to individual patient profiles, is crucial for maximizing efficacy while minimizing toxicity. As we strive to optimize breast cancer management, a comprehensive understanding of the distinct characteristics and treatment implications of luminal and triple-negative subtypes, including the transformative role of immunotherapy, is essential for informed decision-making and personalized care.

Despite significant progress in the field of human breast cancer research and treatment, there is a consistent increase in the incidence rate of 0.5 percent annually, posing challenges in the development of effective novel therapeutic strategies. The failure rate of drugs in clinical trials stands at approximately 95%, primarily attributed to the limitations and lack of reliability of existing preclinical models, such as mice, which do not mimic human tumor biology.

Integrating clinical datasets in breast cancer research emerges as a necessary tool for advancing our knowledge of the disease and enhancing patient outcomes. Synthesizing diverse datasets offers advantages, from facilitating evidence-based insights to enabling predictive analytics and precision medicine strategies. Crucially, effective integration of clinical datasets necessitates collaborative efforts, policy interventions, and technological advancements to elevate global standards of breast cancer care.

Objectives: Automated breast ultrasound imaging (ABUS) results in a reduction in breast cancer stage at diagnosis beyond that seen with mammographic screening in women with increased breast density or who are at a high risk of breast cancer. It is unknown if the addition of ABUS to mammography or ABUS imaging alone, in this population, is a cost-effective screening strategy.
Methods: A discrete event simulation (Monte Carlo) model was developed to assess the costs of screening, diagnostic evaluation, biopsy, and breast cancer treatment.
Incidence of Adjacent Synchronous Ipsilateral Infiltrating Carcinoma and/or Ductal Carcinoma In Situ in Patients Diagnosed with Flat Epithelial Atypia by Core Needle Biopsy (TBCRC 034).
Ann Surg Oncol
January 2025
Division of Breast Surgery, Department of Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Flat epithelial atypia (FEA), a rare breast proliferative lesion, is often diagnosed following core biopsy (CB) of mammographic microcalcifications. In the prospective multi-institution TBCRC 034 trial, we investigate the upgrade rate to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or invasive cancer following excision for patients diagnosed with FEA on CB.
Patients And Methods: Patients with a breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) ≤ 4 imaging abnormality and a concordant CB diagnosis of FEA were identified for excision.
