Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT) is considered as a standard in the treatment of most solid cancers, including glioblastoma, lung, breast, rectal, prostate, colorectal, cervical, esophageal, and head and neck cancers. The main challenge in RT is tumor cell radioresistance associated with a high risk of locoregional relapse and distant metastasis. Despite significant progress in understanding mechanisms of radioresistance, its prediction and overcoming remain unresolved. This review presents the state-of-the-art for the potential universal biomarkers correlated to the radioresistance and poor outcome in different cancers. We describe radioresistance biomarkers functionally attributed to DNA repair, signal transduction, hypoxia, and angiogenesis. We also focus on high throughput genetic and proteomic studies, which revealed a set of molecular biomarkers related to radioresistance. In conclusion, we discuss biomarkers which are overlapped in most several cancers.

Comparison of conventional and hypofractionated radiation after mastectomy in locally advanced breast cancer: a prospective randomised study on dosimetric evaluation and treatment outcome. JOURNAL OF RADIOTHERAPY IN PRACTICE 2021.

Abstract
AbstractBackground:Although hypofractionated radiotherapy has been standardised in early breast cancer, even in post-mastectomy no such consensus has been developed for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC), probably due to complex planning and field matching. This study is directed towards dosimetric evaluation and comparison of toxicity, response and disease-free survival (DFS) comparison between hypofractionation and conventional radiotherapy in post-mastectomy LABC.Methodology:In total, 222 female breast cancer patients were randomly assigned to be treated with either hypofractionated radiotherapy (n = 120) delivering 40 Gy in 15 fractions over 3 weeks or conventional radiotherapy (n = 102) with 50 Gy in 25 fractions over 5 weeks after modified radical mastectomy (MRM) along with neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy. All patients were planned with treatment planning software and assessed regularly during and after treatment.Results:Median follow-up period was 178 weeks in conventional arm (CRA) and 182 weeks in hypofractionation arm (HFA). There exists a dosimetric difference between the two arms of treatment, in spite of similar dose coverage [planning treatment volume (PTV) D90 92·04% in CRA versus 92·5% in HFA; p = 0·49], average dose in HFA is less than that of CRA (p < 0·001); so is the maximum clinical target volume (CTV) dose (p < 0·001). Similarly, average lung dose in HFA arm is significantly lower than CRA (9·9 versus 10·84; p = 0·06), but the V20Gy of lung and V30Gy of heart had no difference. The toxicity of radiation was comparable with similar mean time to produce toxicity [CRA: 7 W, HFA: 10 W; hazard ratio 0·64, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0·28–1·45]. Three-year recurrence event was alike in two arms (CRA: 4·9%, HFA: 5·8%; p = 0·76). Mean DFS in CRA is 230 weeks and that of HFA is 235 weeks with hazard ratio 1·01 (95% CI = 0·32–3·19; p = 0·987).Conclusion:Though biologically effective dose (BED) in hypofractionation is lesser than that of conventional fractionation, there are indistinguishable toxicity, locoregional recurrence, distant failure rate and DFS between the two modalities.

Abstract
We report on the second Assisi Think Tank Meeting (ATTM) on breast cancer which was held under the auspices of the European Society for RadioTherapy & Oncology (ESTRO). In discussing in-depth current evidence and practice it was designed to identify grey areas in diverse forms of the disease. It aimed at addressing uncertainties and proposing future trials to improve patient care. Before the meeting, three key topics were selected: 1) primary systemic therapy, mastectomy, breast reconstruction and post-mastectomy radiation therapy, 2) therapeutic options in ductal carcinoma in situ, and 3) therapy de-escalation in early stage breast cancer. Clinical practice in these areas was investigated by means of an online questionnaire. The time lapse period between the survey and the meeting was used to review the literature and on-going clinical trials. At the ATTM both were discussed in depth and research protocols were proposed.

Zhu XF, Yi M, He J, Tang W, Lu MY, Li T, Feng ZB. Pathological significance of MAD2L1 in breast cancer: an immunohistochemical study and meta analysis. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PATHOLOGY 2017; 10:9190-9201. [PMID: 31966791 PMCID: PMC6965997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2017] [Accepted: 08/09/2017] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The aberrant expression of mitotic arrest deficient 2-like 1 (MAD2L1) has been found to promote tumor formation by inducing chromosomal instability and aneuploidy in cells. In breast cancer (BRCA), limited studies have been focused on MAD2L1 expression and its impact on tumor progression. Thus, we conducted this study to comprehensively analyze MAD2L1 expression and its clinicopathological significance as well as diagnostic value for BRCA. Immunohistochemistry was performed with the 209 invasive ductal BRCA samples and the corresponding adjacent tissues to investigate MAD2L1 expression in BRCA and its relationship between clinicopathological features of BRCA. Then, the clinicopathological role of MAD2L1 was confirmed by RNA-sequencing or microarray data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and gene expression omnibus (GEO). Particularly, summarized receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve was plotted to explore the diagnostic capacity of MAD2L1 in BRCA. The results showed that MAD2L1 presented overexpression in BRCA and was significantly associated with higher clinical stage and histological grade of BRCA. A significant correlation was also found between MAD2L1 expression and several tumor indicators including ER, P53, HER-2 and Ki-67. Moreover, area under curve (AUC) value (0.9642) from SROC revealed potential diagnostic value of MAD2L1 for BRCA. In summary, MAD2L1 may be involved in the occurrence and development of BRCA and MAD2L1 detection could improve the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of BRCA.
