Aims: To explore the potential functions and impacts of anoikis-related genes (ARGs) in breast cancer chemotherapy and to construct a prognosis model for HER2-negative breast cancer (HNBC) based on drug resistance-related ARGs.

Background: Breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, with HER2-negative subtypes exhibiting high rates of metastasis and recurrence. Standard treatments for HNBC include taxane- and anthracycline-based chemotherapies, which aim to mitigate recurrence and metastasis. Anoikis, a specialized form of programmed cell death, plays a pivotal role in maintaining tissue homeostasis by eliminating detached cells. Cancer cells often develop resistance to anoikis, enabling survival in adverse conditions and promoting tumor progression.

Objective: To investigate the intersection of breast cancer drug resistance-related genes and anoikis-related genes (ARGs) and to assess their potential as biomarkers for HNBC. The study also aims to analyze differences in immune microenvironment and drug sensitivity among different prognosis score groups.

Method: A bioinformatics approach was employed to identify the intersection of breast cancer drug resistance-related genes and ARGs. A prognosis model for HNBC was developed based on these identified drug resistance-related ARGs. The study further examined differences in the immune microenvironment and drug sensitivity among different prognosis score groups.

Result: A prognosis model for HNBC was successfully constructed based on drug resistance-related ARGs. The study identified significant differences in immune microenvironment and drug sensitivity across different prognosis score groups.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that ARGs could be key in tailoring more effective therapeutic approaches for patients with HER2-negative breast cancer.

Background: We predicted the number of cancer deaths and rates for 2025 in the European Union (EU), its five most populous countries, and the UK, focusing on breast cancer.

Materials And Methods: We derived population data and death certificates for all cancers and major sites for the EU, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the UK since 1970, from the World Health Organization and United Nations databases. Estimates for 2025 were computed by linear regression on recent trends identified through Poisson joinpoint regression, considering the slope of the most recent trend segment.
