Abstract
Abstract
Background
Immediate breast reconstruction is safe from an oncological perspective, but the relatively high rate of postoperative complications raises oncological concerns. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential influence of postoperative complications after immediate breast reconstruction on breast cancer recurrence and survival.
Methods
Patients with breast cancer who had total mastectomy and immediate reconstruction between 2008 and 2013 were followed for at least 5 years. The impact of postoperative complications on oncological outcomes was assessed using multivariable Cox regression analyses.
Results
In total, 438 patients with a median follow-up of 82 months were analysed. Five-year local recurrence-free, disease-free and overall survival rates were 95·4, 93·1 and 98·4 per cent respectively. Postoperative complications developed in the operated breast in 120 patients (27·4 per cent) and at other sites (flap donor) in 30 patients (6·8 per cent). Development of breast complications was associated with significantly increased rate of recurrence compared with no complications (16·7 versus 5·9 per cent; P = 0·002). In multivariable analysis, patients with breast complications had significantly worse disease-free survival than those with no complications (hazard ratio (HR) 2·25; P = 0·015). This remained significant in patients who received adjuvant therapy without delay (8 weeks or less after surgery) (HR 2·45; P = 0·034).
Conclusion
Development of postoperative complications in the breast can have a negative impact on survival and recurrence after immediate reconstruction.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: PIK3CA mutation is one of the most frequent genomic alterations in breast cancer. We evaluated PIK3CA mutational status including spatial and temporal heterogeneity, clinical characteristics and prognostic impact focused on ER+/HER2- subtype.
Methods: We performed targeted ultra-deep sequencing (CancerSCAN™) of breast cancer tissue in a prospective cohort. Burden of disease was assessed by metabolic tumor volume(MTV) in 18F-FDG-PET scan. Association with clinical characteristics or survival were tested in ER+/HER2- subtype, using Chi square test or Kaplan-Meier method.
Results: PIK3CA analyses were performed in 1274 breast cancer specimens from 1091 patients. 957 patients had early breast cancer. PIK3CA alterations were found in 397 patients(36.3%), and frequency of PIK3CA mutation was significantly lower in triple negative breast cancer(19.0%), compared with 40.4% in ER+/HER2-, 40.9% in ER+/HER2+, and 45.2% in ER-/HER2+ subtype(p<0.0001). 158 patients had more than two biopsies. Among 92 patients with second biopsy within one month, 11%(10/92) had spatial heterogeneity of PIK3CA mutation. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 10%(3/30) of patients had change of PIK3CA mutational status. Serial biopsy at time of recurrence revealed loss or gain of PIK3CA mutation in 10 out of 59 patients (17%). In ER+/HER2- subtype, PIK3CA had a trend toward longer distant disease free survival without statistical significance. In patients with stage IV ER+/HER2- disease, PIK3CA hotspot mutations were associated with significant longer overall survival(OS) (71.0 vs. 37.8 months, p=0.048) and better progression free survival(PFS) at 1st line palliative treatment (37.7 vs. 9.4 months, p = 0.0004). Frequency of symptomatic recurrence, recurrence as oligometastases, and specific metastatic sites were not associated with PIK3CA mutational status, except that bone metastases at first distant metastases was less prevalent in patients with PIK3CA hotspot mutations(35.6% vs. 53.8% in PIK3CA wt, p=0.048). Metabolic tumor volume(MTV) at time of first distant metastases was not associated with presence of PIK3CA mutation.
Conclusion: We observed variations in PIK3CA mutational status in more than 10% of patients with >1 repeated biopsy. In stage IV ER+/HER2- disease, PIK3CA hotspot mutation seemed to be associated with longer PFS and OS, however metabolic tumor burden was not associated with PIK3CA alterations.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Genetic alteration of Estrogen Receptor 1(ESR1) gene have been associated with acquired endocrine resistance and occurred in about 20% of endocrine resistant estrogen receptor(ER)-positive metastatic breast cancer(MBC). Mutations in ligand binding domain of ESR1 lead to constitutive activity of the ER without ligand estrogen and stimulated down stream cell growth signal. Therefore, ESR1 ligand binding domain alteration is known resistant mechanism of aromatase inhibitor. Among these ESR1 mutations, Y537S, one of the ligand binding domain mutations, caused ER antagonist, fulvestrant resistance. Therefore, assessment of ESR1 mutation in ER-positive MBC had significant benefit to further precision medicine for MBCs. In this study, we explored to identify the frequency and type of ESR1 genetic alterations of ER-positive MBC.
Methods: We performed targeted ultra-deep sequencing (CancerSCAN™) using BC tissue specimens. This sequencing was covered entire coding area of ESR1 gene and also detected copy number alteration and translocation of ESR1.
Results: Targeted ultra-deep sequencing of ESR1 was performed using 990 BC tissues. Of 990 tissue samples, 341(34.5%) were MBCs. Of MBCs, 112(11.3%) were ER-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-negative BCs. In ER-positive HER2-negative MBCs (N=112), 21 ESR1 genetic alterations were identified in 19 BCs (17.0%). Nineteen were single nucleotide variats (SNVs) and three were copy number (CN) amplification. Most commonly detected single nucleotide variant (SNV) was D538G (6 of 19, 31.6%) followed by Y537N, Y537S, V382I (4, 2 and 2 cases, respectively). Three mutations occurred in non-ligand binding domain (G415V, V392I and P79A). Two BC samples harbored two ESR1 mutations, respectively (Y537S and D538G, L536P and Y537N). In terms of treatment, 11 of 12 patients with ER-positive MBC harboring ESR1 mutation received palliative endocrine therapies. Eight patients received aromatase inhibitor and two patients received tamoxifen. One patient received letrozole plus palbociclib. In 2 MBCs with Y537S mutation, progression free survival (PFS) of endocrine therapy was 1.4 and 5.3 months. MBCs with D538G had 12.3months of PFS (range, 5.3-23.7(months)) and BCs harboring another ligand binding domain mutations (Y537N, L536H and L536P) had 15.7months of PFS of endocrine therapy (range, 8.4-17.3(months)). BC with mutation observed in non-lignand binding domain had short PFS (1.8 (V392I) and 2.7 (P79A) months, respectively). In terms of ESR1 CN amplification, patients could not receive endocrine therapy because their BCs rapidly progressed and extensive distant metastases were occurred within 3 months after curative surgery.
Conclusion: In this exploratory study, ESR1 genetic alterations were detected in about 20% of ER-positive MBC. The type of genetic alterations varied including SNVs, CNAs. Each locus of ESR1 mutation predicted endocrine resistance. In addition, we might suggest that ESR1 CN amplification is prognostic marker of ER-positive BCs.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: To date, the role of immunotherapy with check point inhibitors and/or vaccines in the treatment of breast cancer (BC) is still debating, and the main focus of immunotherapy in BC is on triple negative subtype as a target population in many ongoing clinical trials. Translational research into identifying predictive and prognostic immune biomarkers is of particular clinical relevance, but, there are currently no definite prognostic and predictive immune biomarkers in BC, especially in triple negative breast cancer(TNBC). We investigated the expression profiles of immune genes in patients with TNBC to identify the prognostic value of immune genes in search of clinical implications.
Methods : We investigated expression profiles of 770 pan-cancer immune related genes using the nCounter mRNA expression assay (NanoString®) from paraffin-embedded tumor tissues in 200 patients diagnosed as TNBC who received curative surgery at Samsung Medical Center from 2000 to 2004. We analyzed the relationship between stage adjusted level of gene expressions and patients' survival outcomes using Cox regression model.
Results: Of 770 genes, 186 genes were selected from univariate analysis with clinical stage adjustment. In multivariate analysis using Cox regression, expressions of CD1B, CD45, CD53, CT45A1, GTF3C1, IL11RA, IL1RN, LRRN3, MAPK1, NEFL, PRKCE, SPACA3 and RANKL were associated with distant recurrence free survival (p<0.05, respectively). Among these 13 genes, expression of MAPK1, NEFL, CD45, SPACA3 and RANKL were correlated with favorable outcome in terms of distant recurrence free survival (p<0.05, respectively). In terms of overall survival, C3, IL1RL1, IL1RN, IL7 and PRKCE were associated with poor prognosis (p<0.05, respectively) and expression of SAA1 CXCL9 and RANKL resulted in favorable outcome (p<0.05, respectively).

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Tumor metastasis is a major clinical challenge accounting for the vast majority of cancer related deaths.In previous studies, prediction of distant metastasis was based on subtypes,clinical status and sometimes gene expression were used however clinical application was difficult.
In this study, we develop the easy to use prediction tool for distant metastasis using clinical characteristics and gene profiles which came from CancerSCANTM, Next Generation Sequencing based targeted-sequencing platform designed at Samsung Medical Center(SMC).
Methods
We performed a retrospective chart review of 326 breast cancer patients who underwent surgery and CancerSCAN TM between Jan 2001 and Dec 2014 at SMC. Median follow up period was 83 months (Range 1˜190). Cancer scanTM cover 381 genes but 27 genes and 34 occasions (loss of function, mutation or copy number variation) were selected for analysis through gradient boosting and Wilcoxon Signed rank test. Azure Machine Learning is a cloud service that enables the execution of machine learning processes.This was accomplished using the steps of (1) edit the data, (2) split the data, (3) train the model, (4) score the model, and (5) evaluate the model. We split the modeling data into training and testing sets using a randomized 50–50 split. Two-class Decision Forest method was used. After deploying the Azure ML predictive model as a web service, we used a Representational State Transfer application programming interface to send data and obtained predictions in real-time.
Results
No distant metastasis group and distant metastasis group consisted of 267 and 59 patients, respectively. HR-/HER2+ and 50 years old and over patients were higher in metastasis group (p-value = 0.003 and p-value = 0.000). Nuclear grade 3 and N2,3 were higher in metastasis group (p-value = 0.010 and p-value = 0.000, p-value = 0.001 respectively). Stage III was also higher in metastasis group (p-value = 0.000). Among 59 patients with distantmetastasis, multiple sites metastasis was 21 cases (35.6%) and then lung metastasis was 19 cases (32.2%). In the 21 cases of multiple sites metastasis, triple sites was 6 cases (28.6%) and double sites was 15 cases (71.4%). PIK3CA mutation was the most frequent gene variation in all patients (34.5% of no metastasis group and 27.1% of metastasis group) but there was no difference between two groups(p-value = 0.278). BRCA 1 loss of function and BRCA2 loss of function were more frequent in metastasis group than no metastasis group(p-value = 0.033 and p-value = 0.024, respectively) but total counts was too small. We assessed the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for predictive value. The AUC of ROC curve was 1.000 and also accuracy, precision, recall were 1.000. In addition, we conducted internal validation using 83 patients during 2015. When we applied a 0.5 threshold value with our predictive model, true negative was 81 and true positive was 2 among 83 patients. Finally, the accuracy of validation was 1.000.
Conclusion
Our predicted model could represent a useful and easy-to-access tool for the selection of patients with distant metastasis. After additional evaluation with large data and external validation, worldwide use of our model could be expected.

Abstract
Abstract
Understanding how standard-of-care drug treatments affect tumor intrinsic biology and microenvironment is critical for elucidating drug resistance mechanisms and developing better combination therapies as well as new therapies. To characterize the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on the genome, transcriptome and tumor infiltrating leukocytes (TILs), we have conducted whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing of a large longitudinal breast cancer cohort consisting of 146 cases and 281 paired tumor samples. In total, 52 (38%) patients achieved pathologic complete response (pCR) while 85 patients (62%) had residual disease with standard chemotherapy regimen. Tumor biopsies were collected for each patient at three time points – pre-treatment, three weeks after the first cycle of anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) and at the time of surgery after 3 more cycles of AC followed by 4 cycles of taxane or taxane plus Herceptin in case of HER2+ subtype. We detected 5,955 protein-altering somatic mutations affecting 4,414 genes in pretreatment samples and 502 acquired mutations in surgery samples affecting 477 genes including 19recurrently mutated genes such as TP53 and NOTCH1. Across all subtypes, 4,346 genes were differentially expressed (DE) following NAC treatment and significantly enriched in pathways such as cell cycle, ER signaling, PI3K/mTOR, immune and metabolism. Expression-based virtual microdissection analysis indicated that NAC treatment induced an increase in the fractions of stromal and adjacent normal tissue compartment, consistent with observed reduction in tumor cellularity. To assess the NAC induced changes in the molecular landscape of these tumors, we compared molecular features including gene expression signatures, mutation prevalence and copy number alteration between three time points while adjusting for confounding effects of molecular subtype and tumor cellularity. We found that NAC induced dynamic changes in gene expression signatures associated with proliferation and immunomodulatory treatment response. We further validated the observed pattern of change in TILs through histopathology and digital imaging analyses. In pretreatment tumors, 116 genes were DE between patients with pCR vs. those with residual disease with significant enrichment in immune/inflammatory pathways. Further, pre-treatment TIL levels were found to be significantly associated with pCR, echoing previous reports in breast cancers that implicated anti-tumor immunity in mediating the efficacy of chemotherapies. Our analyses also revealed associations between NAC response and baseline genomic attributes such as genomic alterations that affect DNA damage repair pathways. Taken together, these results suggest that NAC induced a multitude of changes on the genomic landscape and immune microenvironment of breast cancers, some of which point to combination strategies with immunomodulatory therapies and therapies that target DNA damage repair.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Assessment of restoration of ovarian function after chemotherapy is critical with respect to the initiation of different types of endocrine treatment in young high risk breast cancer patients
METHODS
In total, 1289 women who remained premenopausal or resumed premenopausal status after chemotherapy were randomized to receive 5 years of tamoxifen or 5 years of tamoxifen plus 2 years of ovarian suppression. The patients who did not resume menstruation were followed up for 2 years with tamoxifen treatment after finishing chemotherapy. Prospectively collected consecutive post-chemotherapy hormone and menstruation data were available for 705 breast cancer patients who enrolled tamoxifen-only treatment group or did not resume menstruation during follow up. This analysis evaluated the proportion of patients with pre-menopausal FSH levels (<30 mIU/ml), E2 levels (340 pg/ml), and menstruation at any time point during treatment with tamoxifen.
RESULTS
During 5 years of tamoxifen treatment after chemotherapy for premenopausal breast cancer patients, 62% of patients resumed menstruation. Menstruation returned in 92% of patients under 35 years old but only in 31% of patients over 45 years old. Ovarian function, defined by serum FSH and E2 levels, resumed in 94% and 65% of patients, respectively, over 5 years. Most patients achieved ovarian function restoration during the first 2 years after chemotherapy, with 47.1% resuming menstruation and 86.2% and 50.3% achieving pre-menopausal FSH and E2 levels, respectively, in the first 2 years. Clinical factors related to menstruation restoration were younger age (HR = 6.38, 95% CI 1.33-3.47), 6 month hormone profile after chemotherapy (FSH<30: HR=1.67, 95% CI 1.28-2.17; E2 >40: HR=2.96, 95% CI 2.25-3.89), and anthracycline without taxane chemotherapy (HR=1.63, 95% CI 1.25-2.13).
CONCLUSIONS
During 5 years of tamoxifen treatment after chemotherapy, half of patients experienced menstruation restoration, including most very young patients under 35 years. The majority of patients experienced menstruation restoration in the first 2 years of tamoxifen treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: There are many factors that might contribute to the delay of surgery in patients with breast cancer. Previous studies investigate the influence of delay of surgery, but they reported inconsistent results. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of time of surgery on prognosis of breast cancer.
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of the patients with breast cancer, who received surgery between 1992 and 2009, by using data from Korea Breast Cancer Society Registry. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression model were used to evaluate the impact of time to surgery in breast cancer and subgroup analyses were performed for each disease stage and molecular subtype.
Result: A total 14727 patients were included for analysis. Delay of surgery more than 31 days was associated with worse survival for breast cancer [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.16; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.936-2.408, p<0.001]. Subgroup analyses revealed that over 31 days of surgical delay were significantly associated with worse survival in hormone receptor positive and HER-2 negative (p<0.001), hormone receptor positive and HER-2 positive (p<0.001), hormone receptor negative and HER-2 positive (p<0.001), triple negative (p<0.001) and stage II, III breast cancer patients (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Surgical delay of more than 31 days were independent risk factors for worse outcome of breast cancer in each molecular subtype and breast cancer group except stage 0 and I. Although preoperative evaluation is required, surgical delay should be shortened to enhance survival of breast cancer, especially in patients with tumor size more than 2cm or presence of lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1) gene encodes an estrogen receptor, which regulates cell proliferation and promotes tumor progression in estrogen receptor(ER)-positive breast cancer (BC). Therefore, endocrine therapy that inhibiting ER downstream signal, is the most effective treatment strategy in ER-positive BC. However, about 25% of patients with primary disease and almost all patients with metastases will present with or eventually develop endocrine resistance. And genetic alteration of ESR1 is now identified as the endocrine resistance mechanism. However, a few data from clinical trials or public data base exists and could not reflect real world clinic. Therefore, we aimed to identify the frequency and type of ESR1 genetic alterations in BCs through this large scaled study.
Methods: We performed targeted ultra-deep sequencing (CancerSCAN™) using BC tissue specimens. This sequencing was covered entire coding area of ESR1 gene and also detected copy number alteration and translocation of ESR1.
Results: Targeted ultra-deep sequencing of ESR1 was performed using 618 BC tissues. Of 618 tissue samples, 253(40.9%) were MBCs, 362(58.6%) were early BCs (EBCs) and 3 were not identified. In terms of subtypes, 220 ER-positive BCs, 122 ER-positive and HER2-positive BCs, 119 HER2-positive and 153 triple-negative BCs (TNBCs) were included. BCs from patients under 40 year-old were 277(44.8%)(Median: 43.0, range: 23.5 -75.6). ESR1 genetic alterations were identified in 21 BCs (5 EBCs and 16 MBCs). In EBCs, 3 cases were observed in TNBCs and 2 cases were in ER-positive BCs (2.6% and 1.2%, respectively). All five EBC were treatment naïve status. Of 16 cases of ESR1 alterations in MBCs, 10 cases of ESR1 alterations were detected in ER-positive BCs (17.6%), 5cases in ER and HER2-positive BCs(6.7%) and 1 in HER2-positive BCs (1.2%). All ER-positive MBCs were treated with more than one line of endocrine therapy. Most commonly detected genetic alteration was single nucleotide variant (SNV) (15 of 21, 71.4%). Thirteen were in ligand binding domain and two cases occurred in activation function-1 (AF-1) domain (P79A and G145S). D538G and V392I were most frequently mutated loci followed by Y537N (3, 3 and 2 cases, respectively) and only metastatic ER-positive BCs harbored ESR1 activating mutation. Four copy number (CN) amplification in 2 ER-positive and 2 ER and HER2-positive BCs, one CN deletion in TNBC and one ESR1 fusion in ER and HER2-positive BC were also detected (19.0%, 4.8% and 4.8%, respectively). In frame ESR1 fusion was occurred between ESR1 and NPHS1 genes.
Conclusion: In this experimental study, ESR1 genetic alterations were frequently detected in ER-positive MBC but ER-negative or EBC also harbored. The type of genetic alterations varied including SNVs, CN alterations and translocation and ESR1-NPHS1 fusion is the novel genetic alteration that has not been reported. To identify the role of ESR1 genetic alteration in ER-negative BCs and novel translocation, further functional validation would be warranted (Clinical trials.gov Number :NCT02591966).

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose Numerous studies demonstrated that breast cancer in young women (BCY) has unfavorable prognostic features and unfavorable subtype. However, there were few studies to evaluate the effect on the prognosis of breast cancer according to the subtype disparities by age especially BCY. We analyzed breast cancer mortality stratified tumor subtype according to age among the patients with less than 50 year-old. Patients and Methods Data obtained from the Korean Breast Cancer Society Registry (KBCSR), patients diagnosed with invasive breast cancer were retrospectively between 2003 and 2010. We excluded patients with male breast cancer, underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy, distant metastasis or inflammatory breast cancer at presentation, and other histopathology except invasive ductal or invasive lobular carcinoma. We also excluded patients with lack of immunohistochemistry data and short-term follow-up duration (<12 months). Results We identified 37,865 patients, and excluded by study protocol. Among those, 30,793 patients with breast cancer for eligible for analysis, 793 (2.6%) were 20-29 years and 8,926 (28.8%) were 30-39 years of age. Median follow-up duration was 84 months. Mean age was 42.4 years old. Younger patients with breast cancer were more likely to have advanced stage, higher nuclear grade, present lymphovascular invasion, and more likely to be unfavorable subtype such as triple negative breast cancer (TNBC)

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction:Substantial efforts have been made to find factors associated with breast cancer (BC) recurrence and mortality after BC treatment. So far TNM stage, ER, PR, and HER2 status are considered as the major predictive markers of BC recurrence and used for treatment decision. However, most of these factors were evaluated independent from other important confounders such as age, stage, and various anti-cancer treatments because they were mostly derived from clinical trials. In Korea, up to 50% of BC patients are premenopausal women, it is not clear how age at diagnosis affect the progression and outcomes of the disease considering all known prognostic factors including TNM stage, ER, PR, and HER2 status. We aim to evaluate the impact of young age on recurrence and mortality after surgery among Korean women with BC.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study conducted using the data from BC registry from 2000 to 2016 at Samsung Medical Cancer, Seoul, Korea. Patients who received curative BC surgery and who had histologically-confirmed invasive BC between 2000 to 2011 were included in the study. Patients who second primary cancer or double primary cancer were excluded. Information local, regional, or distant recurrence and death until May 2016 was collected using electronic medical records and National Health Statistics. Cumulative incidence rates of distant recurrence and morality at 3-years, 5-years and 10-years were calculated using a competing-risk model. Cox proportional hazards analysis were conducted with 3 different models to take into account for potential confounding factors including age, body mass index (BMI), stage and subtype at breast cancer diagnosis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormone therapy.
Results:There were 7360 BC patients with curative BC surgery between 2000 and 2011, and the average follow up duration was 75.4 months. The mean age at diagnosis was 48.4 years old (Standard deviation (SD)=±10), and 6.2% (n=459) was diagnosed younger than 35. Of total, 13.3% were stage III BC and 73.4% of patients had hormone receptor positive BC. The cumulative incidence (95%CI) of recurrence at 3, 5, and 10 years was 4.4% (3.9-4.9), 7.5% (6.8-8.2), and 14.8% (12.9-16.7) respectively. The incidence of mortality at 3, 5, and 10 years was 1.8% (1.5-2.1), 3.8% (3.3-4.3), and 10.2% (9.1-11.5) respectively. Patients who were diagnosed BC under 35 years of age had 2.14 (95% confidence interval (CI):1.74-3.10) and 1.62 (95% CI:1.02-2.56) times higher risk of distant recurrence and mortality compared to patients whose age at diagnosis were between 50 to 60 after adjusting all well-known prognostic factors including stage, subtype, and BMI at diagnosis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormone therapy.
Conclusions: Young age at diagnosis (<35) was the most significant predictor on BC recurrence and mortality independently from BC stage and subtype. Further study is warranted to explain biologic background for the differences in outcomes in young women with BC.

Abstract
Abstract
Breast cancers (BC) in younger, premenopausal patients (YBC) tend to be more aggressive with worse prognosis, higher chance of relapse and poorer response to endocrine therapies compared to breast cancers in older patients. The proportion of YBC (age ≤ 40) among BC in East Asia is estimated to be 16-32%, significantly higher than the 7% reported in Western countries. To characterize the molecular bases of Asian YBC, we have performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole-transcriptome sequencing (WTS) on tumor and matched normal samples from 134 Korean BC patients consisting of 74 YBC cases (age ≤ 40) and 60 OBC cases (age > 40). We then performed comparison analyses and integrative analyses with the TCGA BC cohort consisting of 1,116 tumors from primarily Caucasian patients, also grouped by age into YBC (age ≤ 40), IBC (40 < age ≤ 60) and OBC (age > 60).
Somatic mutation prevalence analysis identified 7 significantly mutated genes and the same top three genes – TP53, GATA3 and PIK3CA – were reported by the TCGA BC study. To identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and pathways in YBCs vs. OBCs, we performed logistic regression analyses while controlling for the confounding effects of tumor purity and stage. We were surprised to see a significant overlap in DE pathways between a comparison of adjacent normal tissues in younger vs. older TCGA cohorts and a comparison of YBC vs. OBC tumors, indicating that normal tissue compartment could contribute to observed differences between bulk tumors. To separately examine molecular signatures from tumor, stroma and normal compartments, we used non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) analyses to virtually dissect bulk tumor expression data and identified 14 factors including 3 factors associated with normal tissues, 1 factor associated with stroma and 1 factor associated with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). Integrative analyses of tumor associated factors and DE pathways revealed that estrogen response, endocrine therapy resistance, and oxidative phosphorylation pathways are up-regulated in YBCs compared to OBCs while cell cycle and proliferation pathways are up-regulated in Asian OBCs. Interestingly, many immune and inflammation pathways correlated with the TIL factor were significantly upregulated in OBCs vs. YBCs. Using gene expression signatures representing distinct immune cell types, we classified our cohort into four subtypes of varying TIL activities and observed significant enrichment of the TIL-high subtype in OBCs compared to YBCs. These observations were confirmed by IHC analyses of four TIL markers (CD45, CD4, CD8 and CD163) in 120 tumors.
To our knowledge, this is the first large-scale multi-omics study of Asian breast cancer and would significantly contribute to the compendium of molecular data available for studying young breast cancers. The major landmarks in the molecular landscape looked similar across BCs of different ethnicities and ages, however, we have identified a number of distinguishing molecular characteristics associated with Asian YBC. The sources for some signatures were further traced to non-tumor intrinsic compartments, indicating that tumor microenvironment may play potentially important roles in driving the carcinogenesis of young breast cancers.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a new biomarker which could guide further treatment. Characterization of tumor mutation profiles is required for informed choice of therapy, given that biological agents target specific pathways and effectiveness may be modulated by specific mutations. It would have clinical utility for neoadjuvant setting also. Thus, we assess the potency of ctDNA to predict tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) in locally advanced breast cancer(LABC).
Methods: We performed targeted deep sequencing of 30 plasma DNAs and 10 matched germline DNAs from 10 LABC patients. Serial plasma DNAs were collected at diagnosis, after 1st NAC and curative surgery. For the target enrichment, we designed RNA baits covering a total of ~202kb regions of human genome including a total of 83 cancer-related genes. We constructed the sequencing libraries according to the optimized protocol that we recently reported and sequenced on Illumina HiSeq2500 aiming a mean sequencing depth of ~10,000. After excluding unmapped reads, PCR duplicates and off-target reads, the coverage depths for plasma DNA and germline DNA samples were 2,627x and 4,833x on average, respectively. NAC response was measured by residual cancer burden(RCB) score, calculated as a continuous index combining pathologic measurements of primary tumor and nodal metastases for prediction of distant relapse-free survival.
Results: We analyzed ctDNA and primary tumor tissues from 10 patients with LABC scheduled NAC followed by operation in Samsung Medical Center. Of ten LABCs, one excluded from analysis because of angiosarcoma of breast. Five samples were triple-negative breast cancers (BCs), 2 were HER2 positive BCs and others were ER positive BCs. In tumor response, 1 patient had pathologic complete response (pCR), 1 had RCB class I, 4 and 3 patients did RCB class II and III.
Of 83 genes, in analysis of ctDNA at BC diagnosis, we found 2 to 6 mutations in each samples and 3 mutations were detected averagely. Most common mutation was TP53 (6 patients), followed by PIK3CA mutation. By measuring these mutations in serial ctDNA, we found that ctDNA had disappeared after first cycle of NAC in patient with pCR. In two patients with RCB class I, ctDNA had decreased by more than 10 percent (the level of ctDNA(pg/ml): 455.9 to 30.4, 5.8 to 0.0) of primary plasma sample after first NAC. Two patients increased level of ctDNA had tumor response with RCB class III and one patient had distant tumor recurrence within 3 months after curative surgery. However, correlation between the level of ctDNA and initial stage was not observed.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: Crosstalk between growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and the estrogen receptor (ER) represents one of the most important mechanisms of endocrine resistance. EGFR and HER2 have been recognized as prominent factors associated with endocrine resistance. Most previous studies did not identify subgroups by HER2 overexpression and/or included breast cancer with HER2 overexpression. Accordingly, we analyzed HR positive (HR+) tumors without HER2 overexpression (HER2-).
Methods: We analyzed the clinical data of 2,166 patients with HR+HER2- breast tumors, between January 2007 and July 2013.We included only patients who had endocrine therapy with tamoxifen. Immunostaining for EGFR was interpreted as positive when at least 10% of the tumor cells showed moderate to strong membrane staining.
Results: EGFR expression (EGFR+) was present in 109 patients (5%). EGFR expression was significantly associated with more advanced stage and higher grades. In the univariate analyses, EGFR+ tumors were associated with poorer prognosis than EGFR- tumors (5-year DFS, EGFR+ vs. EGFR-, 91.2% vs. 96.6%, P <0.001; 5-year OS, EFGR+ vs EGFR-, 93.1 % vs. 99.4%, P < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, EGFR+ tumors had a hazard ratio of 2.63 (95% CI 1.14 -6.05) for DFS. EGFR+ tumors had a hazard ratio of 8.8 (95% CI 2.68-132.25) for OS.
Conclusion: EGFR expression could be prognostic factor in hormone receptor-positive and HER2 negative breast cancer, for tamoxifen resistance.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The purpose of this study was to identify the feasibility and accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis at diagnosis.
Methods
This is a retrospective study of 332 patients who were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and ALN metastasis and treated with NAC followed by curative surgery at Samsung Medical Center between January 2007 and December 2013. Patients were classified into five groups according to surgical procedure for the ALNs and pathologic results; group 1, patients with negative SLN status and no further dissection was performed; group 2, patients with negative SLN status undergoing further axillary lymph node dissection (ALND); group 3, patients with positive or undetected SLNs undergoing further ALND; group 4, patients without residual axillary metastasis undergoing complete ALND; and group 5, patients with pathologic nodal positive disease undergoing ALND.
Results
Sentinel lymph nodes identification rate after NAC was 99.1% and false negative rate was 24.1%. The median number of retrieved SLNs was 4 (range, 1–10). There was no difference in the overall survival among the groups (p=0.06). There was no significant difference in the disease-free survival rate between the SLNB only and complete ALN dissection groups who revealed a pathologic complete node response (79.6% versus 80.5%) and the rate of axillary recurrence demonstrated no significant differences among the groups. (p=0.225) There was a statistical difference of recurrence between group 1 versus 2, and group 1 versus 4 in hormone receptor-negative patients. (p=0.027)
Conclusion
SLNB after NAC in breast cancer patients with initial ALN metastasis may help identify downstaging to negative nodal status and thereby reduce the surgical morbidity by avoiding standard ALN dissection.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Recently, chemotherapy with a GnRH agonist was reported to protect against ovarian failure. This study was aimed at determining the oncologic effect of a GnRH agonist concurrent with chemotherapy for breast cancer patients.
Patients and Methods: A total of 1189 patients aged 20 to 40 years with stage I to III breast cancer who received (neo or adjuvant) chemotherapy from five hospitals in Korea from 2002 to 2012 were reviewed. A gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist was given to 410 patients for ovarian protection during chemotherapy (GnRH agonist group), and 779 patients received chemotherapy without ovarian protection (Chemotherapy alone group). A matching strategy was used to create matched sets of two groups by age, stage, hormone receptor status, Her2/neu status, neo or adjuvant chemotherapy, and institute.
Results: Survival analysis using Cox regression showed that the GnRH agonist group had better distant metastatic-free survival (HR=0.65, 95%CI 0.44-0.97) outcomes but similar disease free survival (HR=0.78, 95% CI 0.57-1.08) compared with the chemotherapy alone group. The survival benefit was significant for hormone receptor positive, Her2/neu negative breast cancer on distant metastasis (HR=0.44, 95% CI 0.20-0.99) and disease free survival (HR0.47 95% CI 0.23-0.93).
Conclusion: Ovarian protection using a GnRH agonist can be safely considered for premenopausal breast cancer patients for whom chemotherapy is planned.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) consists of heterogeneous sub-population. Although many investigators made an effort to categorize and classify TNBCs using genetic expressions, it is still needed to be defined for prognostication Traditionally, HER family genes have been known to contribute mammalian glands formation and breast cancer generation as well as ESR gene. Moreover, target agents for HER family genes have been already developed. Accordingly, we investigated the expression profiles of HER family genes with ESR in patients with TNBC to categorize into sub-types and determine the prognostic value of HER family genes in search of clinical implications.
Methods : We investigated the results of the nCounter expression assay (NanoString®) for ERBB1, ERBB2, ERBB3, ERBB4 and ESR1 using mRNA extract from paraffin-embedded tumor tissues in 203 patients diagnosed as TNBC. We used the results of nCounter expression assay using 84 TNBC tissues for validation and 52 breast cancer tissues diagnosed as other subtypes to control the expression assay results of these five genes.
Results: Two-hundred and three patients were diagnosed as TNBC from 2000 to 2004 and received adjuvant chemotherapy after curative surgery. Eighty-four TNBC patients for validation set and 52 patients diagnosed as other subtypes for control set were selected from the patients diagnosed as breast cancer from 2005 to 2010 and received curative surgery. Through analyzing 5 genes using the nCounter expression profiles from 203 TNBC tissues, we found that increased expression of ERBB4 was associated with poor prognosis by survival analysis (5 year disease recurrence free survival (DRFS), low vs. high expression [cut-off: median]: 90.1% vs. 80.2%; p =.002). This trend was still remained in validation set composed of TNBC (5 year DRFS, low vs. high expression [cut-off : median]: 61.1% vs. 44.0%), whereas was not observed in other subtypes of breast cancer (44.4% vs. 80.8%). The Kaplan-Meier estimates of the rates of 5 year DRFS in the subgroups classified according to the level of 5 genes expression showed that the group of higher expression of all HER family genes and lower expression of ESR1 gene had dismal prognosis rather than other groups in patients with TNBC (5 year DRFS, this group vs. others: 50.0% vs. 88.2%; p <.001). In a multivariate Cox regression model, ERBB4 expression identified as a useful marker for predicting long-term prognosis in patients with TNBC although other HER family genes and ESR1 expressions did not predict prognosis of TNBC with statistical significance (Table 1).

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The MRE11-RAD50-nibrin (MRN) complex participates in pathways of double-strand break induced DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoint control. RAD50 interacts with the MRE11 and NBS proteins, is involved in the maintenance of genomic integrity. The association of RAD50 mutation and breast cancer susceptibility has been reported in European patients. However, the impact of RAD50 mutation on a breast cancer predisposition among Koreans remains uncertain. In the current analysis, we evaluated the incidence of RAD50 mutations among Korean patients with non-BRCA1/2 high-risk breast cancer.
Materials and Methods: A total of 247 Korean patients with high-risk breast cancer who tested negative for BRCA1/2 mutation were enrolled. The criteria for high-risk breast cancer were as follows: having a family history of breast or ovarian cancer in any relative; diagnosed at age 40 years or younger; bilateral breast cancer; and male breast cancer. All participants were screened for BRCA1/2 mutations using fluorescent-conformation sensitive capillary electrophoresis (F-CSCE) and traditional sequencing. The entire RAD50 gene of each patient was sequenced using F-CSCE. In silico analyses of the RAD50 variants was performed using PolyPhen-2 and SIFT.
Results: There were two novel deleterious mutations in RAD50 (p.Q426X, p.E1271del). These mutations were found in two patients, including one with p.Q426X and the other with p.E1271del. Besides, five sequence variants in RAD50 were identified: four exonic variants (p.I118T, p.R486C, p.L1264F, and p.R1279H) and one intronic variant (c.1246-11T>C). Among the four missense variants, p.R486C and p.L1264F were variants predicted to be deleterious by in silico analyses.
Conclusions: We found protein-truncating mutations in RAD50 gene in a small proportion of Korean patients with high-risk breast cancer. The contribution of the mutation to the development of breast cancer should be clarified in further researches.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
The results of the Suppression of Ovarian Function Trial (SOFT) and the Tamoxifen and Exemestane Trial (TEXT) showed that ovarian function suppression (OFS) in premenopausal early breast cancer patients improves disease control. However, mood swings after OFS is one of the chief complaints to make patients stop undergoing endocrine therapy. Studies about complications of OFS in breast cancer patients are not established well. We designed this randomized controlled trial to evaluate psychological functioning of patients after undergoing adjuvant OFS by goserelin.
Patients and Methods
We randomly assigned 64 premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive early breast cancer to the tamoxifen or tamoxifen plus goserelin group for a period of 1 year. Participants were screened for depression and generalized anxiety disorder using Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD), Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A), Anxiety Sensitivity Index (ASI) and Albany panic and phobia questionnaire (APPQ) at baseline, 6 months and 12 months. Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) levels were measured, as well. The results were analyzed by using a linear mixed model and a generalized linear mixed model.
Results
Thirty two patients were distributed in each group, equally. Linear mixed-mixed model analyses revealed that, compared with HAM-A scores of each group at baseline, HAM-A scores at 12 months showed increments (p=0.0078). Among HAM-A questions, Questions for intellectual, sensory and autonomic status were scored significantly high at 12 months (p=0.0018, p=0.0132, p=0.0006). Platelet BDNF levels reported a statistically significant rise at 12 months (p=0.0006). There was no significant time-by-study group effect in all scales.
Conclusion
Compared with the patients without OFS, patients with Goserelin showed no difference in anxiety or depression scales. Thought the levels of anxiety of each group at 12 months were increased, they do not indicate medical interventions. Patients with increased levels of BDNF at 12 months are expected to have good recovery from anxious and depressive symptoms.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Ovarian suppression with tamoxifen after chemotherapy is a promising therapeutic approach, particularly in young, high-risk breast cancer patients. Assessment of restoration of ovarian function is important with respect to the initiation of ovarian suppression.
METHODS
In total, 1289 women who remained or resumed premenopausal status after chemotherapy were randomized to receive 5 years of tamoxifen or 5 years of tamoxifen plus 2 years of ovarian suppression. Prospectively collected hormone data were available for 24 months after completing chemotherapy for 267 breast cancer patients without ovarian suppression.
RESULTS
At 6 months, a premenopausal status was identified in 56.6%, 36%, and 16.2% of patients using serum FSH, E2, and with menstruation bleeding, respectively, and about 30% more women achieved ovarian restoration using all three parameters during the 24-month follow-up. Ovarian function restoration differed significantly according to age group (log-rank, P<0.001 for all definitions). At 6 months, the distribution of patients according to hormone levels was as follows: group 1 (FSH <30 mIU/ml, E2 >20 pg/ml), 28.0%; group 2 (FSH <30 mIU/ml, E2 ≤20 pg/ml), 28.4%; group 3 (FSH ≥30 mIU/ml, E2 >20 pg/ml), 8.0%; and group 4 (FSH ≥30 mIU/ml, E2 ≤20 pg/ml), 35.6%. During the 24-month follow-up, the prevalence of menstruation restoration was higher in group 1 (71.6%) than in the other three groups. Restoration of serum E2 and menstrual bleeding occurred in 44% and 33% of patients in group 2, respectively; the corresponding percentages in group 4 were 40.6% and 28.7% (P<0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Ovarian function should be monitored using serum FSH, serum E2, and menstruation history for at least 24 months after completing chemotherapy during tamoxifen treatment to establish eligibility for ovarian suppression.

Abstract
Fibronectin (FN), an extracellular matrix ligand, plays a pivotal role in cell adhesion, migration, and oncogenic transformation. Aberrant FN expression is associated with poor prognoses in various types of cancer, including breast cancer. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between FN induction and HER2 expression in breast cancer cells. Our results showed that the level of FN expression increased in response to HER family ligands, EGF and TGF-α in a time- and dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, EGF-induced FN expression decreased in response to trastuzumab, which is a HER2-targeted monoclonal antibody. However, EGF-induced FN expression was not affected by trastuzumab in JIMT-1 breast cancer cells, which are trastuzumab insensitive cells. Next, we introduced the HER2 gene into MDA-MB231 cells to verify the relationship between FN and HER2. The level of FN expression significantly increased in HER2-overexpressed MDA-MB231 cells. In contrast, the induction of FN by HER2 was significantly decreased in response to trastuzumab treatment. In addition, the induction of FN by HER2 was down-regulated by the MEK 1/2 specific inhibitor, U0126. Using conditioned culture media of vec- and HER2-overexpressed MDA-MB231 cells, we observed the cell morphology, adhesion, and invasion of MDA-MB231 cells. Interestingly, in conditioned culture media of HER2-overexpressed MDA-MB231 cells, the cell morphology was altered, and adhesion and invasion of MDA-MB231 cells significantly increased. In addition, our results showed that recombinant human FN augmented cell adhesion and invasion of MDA-MB231 cells while these inductions decreased in response to an FN inhibitor. Therefore, we demonstrated that the induction of FN by HER2 triggers cell adhesion and invasion capacities.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Inflammation is a key regulatory process in breast cancer progression and severity. Several studies have demonstrated that prolonged exposure of breast tumor cells to inflammatory cytokines leads to epithelial-mesenchymal transitions (EMT), which is the principle mechanism involved in metastasis and tumor invasion. Disruption of the signaling pathways involved in EMT may therefore provide an effective treatment strategy for currently difficult to treat or untreatable cancers such as TNBC. The interleukin (IL)-1 plays a pivotal role on breast cancer proliferation, invasion and/or inflammation. Here, we investigated the correlation of MMP-3 and IL-8 on IL-1b-induced cell migration and invasion as well as the inhibitory effect of zerumbone on IL-1β-induced MMP-3 and IL-8.
Methods: Triple negative breast cancer cells (Hs578T and MDA-MB231) were cultured DMEM with 10% FBS and 1% antibiotics. The levels of IL-8 and MMP-3 mRNA were analyzed by real-time PCR. The levels of secreted IL-8 and MMP-3 protein expression were analyzed by ELISA and western blot analysis, respectively. Cell viabilities by drug were analyzed by MTT assay. Cell invasion and migration was detected by Boyden chamber assay.
Results: The level of IL-8 and MMP-3 mRNA and protein expression significantly increased by IL-1β treatment in both Hs578T cells and MDA-MB231 cells. In addition, IL-1β-induced cell migration and invasion also increased in Hs578T and MDA-MB231 cells. On the other hand, the levels of basal and IL-1β-induced IL-8 and MMP-3 expression were decreased by zerumbone.
Conclusion: IL-1β induces the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells through IL-8 and MMP-3 expression. These effects are significantly suppressed by zerumbone. Therefore, we suggest that zerumbone may act as a useful therapeutic agent for treatment of triple negative breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Endocrine therapy has dramatic improvements of prognosis in patients with hormonal receptor positive breast cancer. However, long-term follow up shows that endocrine resistance is still major clinical concern. Although the value of estrogen receptor (ER) level can predict response to endocrine treatment in hormonal receptor positive breast cancers, few markers are available that can predict response to endocrine treatment. We attempted to identify molecular markers, especially progesterone receptor (PR), associated with endocrine failure in breast cancer.
Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 2513 breast cancer patients who underwent breast surgery and endocrine therapy at Samsung Medical Center between March 2007 and July 2011. Patients were compared according to ER and PR expression and to assess the clinical and biological features of ER+positive/PR-negative breast cancers to understand how PR might be a useful marker of these activities. ER and PR expression accessed using Allred score, the ‘positive” was defined that total score is larger than 2.
Results PR negative tumors were found more frequently in postmenopausal women (post- 11.2% vs. pre- 2.5%, P < 0.001) and PR negative tumors were significantly associated with higher grade, higher level of Ki 67 and more expression of EGFR and CK5/6. In Kaplan-Meier analysis and multivariate analysis, PR negativity was significantly poorer prognostic factor of DFS (HR 3.1, 95% CI 1.2-8.2, P = 0.021) and OS (HR 89.8, 95% CI 3.4-2352.3, P = 0.007). Stratified by the menopausal status, there was not shown significant difference of survival between the PR+ and PR- tumor in postmenopausal women (DFS, HR 2.1, 95% CI 0.4-10.8, P = 0.381; OS, HR 10.6, 95% CI 0.6-171.4, P = 0.096). However, PR negative tumors showed an association with poor outcome in premenopausal women (DFS, HR 7.2, 95% CI 2.5-20.6, P <0.001; OS, HR 24.6, 95% CI 2.2-275.6, P = 0.009).
Conclusion: In HR positive breast cancers, PR negative tumors were found more frequently in elderly, postmenopausal women. However, PR negative tumors are shown more aggressive and poorer survival than PR positive tumors despite of endocrine therapy, especially in premenopausal women.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In patients with fine needle aspiration (FNA)-proven axillary lymph node metastasis at diagnosis (cN+), the current standard surgical procedure is axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) at definitive surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). However, growing evidences suggest that SLNB after NAC is feasible and may demonstrate acceptable performance in selected patients. We performed sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients treated with cytologically-confirmed axillary lymph nodes metastases at presentation, who converted to a clinically negative axillary status after NAC (ycN0).
Patients and methods
We retrospectively evaluated 240 patients with invasive breast cancer with ultrasound-guided FNA-proven axillary nodal metastases at the time of diagnosis. All patients received NAC and underwent surgery at Samsung medical center between October 2007 and May 2013. Among these patients, 75 patients underwent SLNB. These patients converted to clinically node-negative disease (ycN0) after NAC on breast MRI or PET/CT scan. A combined detection technique was used with radioisotope and blue dye for the detection of SLN. Patients with negative SLN on frozen pathology and low clinical suspicion of metastasis during operation were not performed further ALND.
Results
The detection rate of SLNB was 93.3% (70/75), and median number of retrieved sentinel lymph nodes was 3.0 (range 1-8). False negative rate was 6.7% (1/15). Of these 75 patients, 35 (46.6%) patients had positive sentinel lymph nodes (ypN+) and underwent ALND. Thirty-five (46.6%) patients had tumor-free sentinel lymph nodes (ypN0sn) and 20 patients of them were followed without subsequent ALND. In these SLN-negative patients without further ALND, 9 patients were HER2-enriched subtypes and 9 patients, TNBC subtypes. Only two of them were Luminal B subtypes. The median follow-up period was 12.0 months (range 0-26 months) with 2 events; 1 regional recurrence in ipsilateral supraclavicular node and 1 systemic recurrence in brain on postoperative 7 months and 5 months, respectively. There has not occurred an ipsilateral axillary recurrence so far.
Conclusions Although the follow-up was not long enough to conclude, this study tried to demonstrate that SLNB after NAC was feasible and further ALND may not be necessary in patients with SLN-negative disease (ypN0sn).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for invasive breast cancer in patients diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) on a preoperative biopsy. These factors were used to develop a nomogram for predicting the risk of invasion in the preoperative setting.
Methods
This was a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent surgical treatment for DCIS diagnosed before surgery between 1997 and 2009. Multivariable analysis was used to identify clinical, radiological and histopathological factors that may predict upstaging. A nomogram was developed to predict the probability of invasion using multiple logistic regression analysis. This nomogram was subsequently validated using another cohort of patients with a preoperative diagnosis of DCIS between 2010 and 2012.
Results
Upstaging to invasive cancer occurred in 123 (24.9 per cent) of 493 women treated between 1997 and 2009. A larger DCIS lesion (at least 15 mm), lack of hormone receptor expression, intermediate or high nuclear grade, diagnosis on core biopsy compared with vacuum-assisted biopsy, and non-cribriform subtype of DCIS were significantly associated with upstaging. A nomogram developed using these factors demonstrated good predictive performance (area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) 0·823, 95 per cent confidence interval 0·787 to 0·860). The nomogram showed similar predictive performance in the validation data set, based on another 149 women (AUC 0·700, 0·613 to 0·786).
Conclusion
Upstaging to invasive cancer in women with a preoperative diagnosis of DCIS is common. A nomogram based on the five most significant factors related to upstaging accurately predicted invasive cancer. This nomogram may be useful when deciding whether to pursue axillary staging with sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with DCIS.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: Male breast cancer (MBC) is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of all malignancies in men and only 1% of all breast carcinomas. The treatment and surveillance guidelines on male breast cancers are less recognized. The aim of this study is to evaluate our single institution's experience with MBC over the past 15 years and to contrast differences between female and MBC.
Methods: MBC diagnosed from 1994 to 2010 at the Department of Surgery, Samsung Medical Center (Seoul, Korea) was retrospectively analyzed. Clinical data and tumor characteristics were examined. Each MBC was matched with female counterparts by 1:N varied matching ratio that showed accordance in seven variables (year of diagnosis, age, tumor stage, nodal stage, tumor grade, estrogen receptor(ER), progesterone receptor(PR)).
Results: 39 male/184 female matched-pairs were available for analysis. The median duration of follow-up was 3.8 years. The median age of MBC patients was 50 years and the median size of tumor was 2.0cm. The proportion of positivity of ER and PR status was 97.4% and 84.6%, respectively. Despite of higher positive rate of hormone receptor, the rate of hormone therapy in MBC patients was significant lower than female conterpart (p = 0.002). Men and women with breast cancer had similar disease-free survival (DFS) and disease-specific overall survival (DSS). Five MBC patients had a recurrence during follow up period and 4 of them were expired. The 10-years DFS was 73.1% in men and 80.5% in women (p = 0.348). The 10-years DSS was 74.1% in men and 87.1% in women, respectively (p = 0.207).
Conclusion: This study showed no disease free and overall survival differences between male and female breast cancer patients and revealed that gender is no predictor for survival in breast cancer. Male patients receive obviously less adjuvant treatment compared their female matched patients. It would be better to do more aggressive treatment in MBC to improve the survival outcome.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The aim of the study was to determine factors and develop the model that predict the risk of invasion in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) diagnosed by preoperative biopsy.
Methods: We selected 497 patients underwent surgical treatment for preoperatively diagnosed DCIS of the breast between 1997 and 2009. Multivariate analysis was used to identify relevant clinical, radiological and pathological factors that may predict upstaging. A prediction model was developed based on significant factors and measured using the area under the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. This prediction model was subsequently validated using the dataset of 149 cases who were diagnosed with DCIS preoperatively between 2010 and 2012.
Results: Of 24.75%, there was an upstaging to the invasive cancer. We found that larger size (≥1.5cm) of DCIS was most significant factor, followed by palpable lesion on physical examination, no expression of estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor (PR), high nuclear grade, non-cribriform subtype and absence of necrosis significantly associated with presence of invasion.
The prediction model with these factors showed that excellent predictive accuracy (the area under the ROC curve= 0.851, 95% CI: 0.817–0.881) and showed similar findings in the validation data set (AUC = 0.868, 95% CI: 0.800–0.916). After ranking the significant factors, we selected 4 factors to simplify the model. This simple model also showed good prediction power (AUC = 0.821, 98% CI: 0.784–0.854).
Conclusion: We developed the prediction model to predict upstaging in patients diagnose with DCIS preoperatively based on 4 most significant factors. By this prediction model, we suggest the axilla exploration with SLNB in case of DCIS with more than 1.5 cm size, palpable lesion, no expression of HR and high NG to avoid 2nd operation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Recently, the information in the IHC score was reported to be similar to that in the 21-gene Genomic Health recurrence score (GHI-RS). The aim of this study is to develop a nomogram based on Ki67 index to predict recurrence and to validate the nomogram by comparison with CS-IHC4 as well as Adjuvant! Online and St. Galen risk stratification. In addition, we validated our nomogram with external cohort.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of 1,070 postoperative HR-positive breast cancer patients between 2004 and 2007 at the Samsung Medical Center to determine recurrence-free survival (RFS). We constructed nomogram using Cox proportional hazard model and validated externally in a cohort of 1,028 at Seoul National University Hospital. A prognostic model that used classical variables, Adjuvant! Online, St. Gallen risk stratification, and the four IHC markers (IHC4 score) were created and assessed in our cohort by LR-χ2 test using the bootstrapping method.
Results: Nomogram showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.70 (95% CI, 0.62–0.75) in the training set. The validation set showed a good discrimination with an AUC of 0.65 (95% CI, 0.58–0.72). In LR-χ2 test, the nomogram score was found to be more informative than the IHC4 with CS (LR-χ2 4.0539 [df1], 95% CI; 0.1038–8.004 for CS-IHC4 + nomogram score vs. CS-IHC4).
Prognostic significance was more prominent in N1 diseases than in the others (LR-χ2 4.199, 95% CI; 1.496–6.902 for CS-IHC4 + nomogram score vs. CS-IHC4).
However, Adjuvant! Online and St. Galen risk stratification did not show any definitive additional prognostic value.
Conclusions: We developed and validated a nomogram based on Ki67 index in external patients' cohort. It was compared with CS-IHC4 in our patients' cohort in early HR-positive breast cancers. This study implicates the amount of prognostic information contained in the nomogram is superior to that in the CS-IHC4 score.

Abstract
Background: CD151 is a member of the tetraspanin family, which interacts with laminin-binding integrins and other tetraspanins. This protein is implicated in motility, invasion, and metastasis of cancer cells, but the prevalence of CD151 expression in subtypes of breast cancers and its influence on clinical outcome remains to be evaluated. Methods and results: The immunohistochemistry-based tissue microarray analysis showed that 127 (14.3%) cases overexpressed CD151 among 886 breast cancer patients. CD151 overexpression was found to be significantly associated with larger tumour size, higher nodal stage, advanced stage, absence of oestrogen receptor and progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 overexpression. CD151 overexpression resulted in poorer overall survival (OS) (P<0.001) and disease-free survival (P=0.02), and stage II and III patients with CD151 overexpression demonstrated substantially poorer OS (P=0.0474 and 0.0169). In the five subtypes analyses, CD151 overexpression retained its adverse impact on OS in the Luminal A (P=0.0105) and quintuple-negative breast cancer (QNBC) subtypes, one subgroup of triple-negative breast cancer (P=0.0170). Multivariate analysis that included stage, subtype, and adjuvant chemotherapy showed that CD151 overexpression was independently associated with poor OS in invasive breast cancer. Conclusion: CD151 overexpression may be a potential molecular therapeutic target for breast cancer, especially in QNBC subtype and more advanced stages of breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It has been widely accepted that small and node-negative breast cancers have an excellent prognosis and do not generally have clinical benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Recently, the role of adjuvant chemotherapy for small node negative breast cancers has been justified in some high-risk patients, which include HER2−positive and triple negative breast cancers. However, the question has been raised as to whether there are some patients who might have benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in small node-negative HR-positive breast cancers. According to the current 2011 NCCN guideline, 21-gene RT-PCR assay can be considered for tumor size of more than 0.5 cm in HR-positive, HER2−negative cancers. In cases of high recurrence score (≥ 31), adjuvant chemotherapy in addition to endocrine therapy is recommended as category 2B. Because gene array cannot routinely be used in clinical practice and has not been validated in prospective randomized trials and the usefulness of it still needs to be defined, it would be better if there were valuable markers to determine risk for relapse in this setting. We hypothesized that there could be a population who might have clinical benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in this small node-negative HR-positive tumors.
Patients and Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of 538 postoperative HR-positive (ER-positive and/or PgR-positive) T1b-cN0 breast cancer patients between 2004 and 2007 at the Samsung Medical Center. We performed Cox regression multivariate analysis for relapse using variables from univariate analysis by log-rank test for relapse.
Results: The median age at diagnosis was 46 years (range, 22–79). During the median 60.5 months of follow-up, the 5-year recurrence rate was 5.2%. Anthracycline-based adjuvant chemotherapy was administered to 44.8% of the patients. Adjuvant endocrine and radiation treatment were administered to 94.6% and 63.7% of the patients. There were significant differences according to histologic grade (HG), Ki67 index, and age of less than 35 years in univariate analyses regarding RFS (p=0.003, p<0.0001, and p=0.003, respectively by log-rank test). There was no significant difference according to tumor size of subcentimeter (< 1cm) (p=0.826). In Cox regression multivariate analysis, high Ki67 index and young age of less than 35 years were identified as independent risk factors for relapse (p<0.0001 for Ki67 index and 0.015 for young age). The high risk patients (n=24, 4.5%) who have high Ki67 index (more than 75%, 4+) or young age of less than 35 and more than 50% of Ki67 index showed better RFS with statistical significance for anthracycline-containing adjuvant chemotherapy (p=0.029).
Conclusion: A patients’ population may exist who have clinical benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in T1b-cN0 HR-positive breast cancer patients. Ki67 index and age are useful as valuable surrogate markers to predict recurrence and to have benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in this population.

Abstract
Background: Breast cancer screening program makes it possible to detect early cancer, thus to reduce breast cancer mortality. The authors studied clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of screen detected invasive breast cancer compared with symptomatic breast cancer. Furthermore, we compared the result according to molecular subtypes (luminal A, luminal B, Her2, triple negative), so intended to identify the role of screening in each subtypes. Material and Methods: From January 2002 to June 2008, 3141 patients who underwent operation for the treatment of invasive ductal carcinoma(NOS) at Samsung medical center were included. Among them, 1025 patient were screen detected, 2116 patient were symptomatic, out of screening over 2 years. We reviewed the medical records retrospectively.
Result: Screen detected breast cancer was associated with older patients, smaller tumor size, more hormone receptor- positive, less lymph node involvement, lower stage and reduced mortality compared with symptomatic breast cancer (P < .001). According to the molecular subtype, in luminal A subtype, the result shows better pathologic feature and also favorable overall and recur-free survial significantly.
Conclusion: Compared to symptomatic breast cancer patients, screen detected breast cancer patients have favorable pathological and molecular characteristics, so better outcomes. According to the molecular subtype, only in luminal A subtype, screen detected breast cancer shows both overall and disease free survival benefit, and also acts as an independent prognostic factor itself. So, screening program seems to have a different efficacy depending on the molecular subtype of breast cancer

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Crosstalk between growth factor receptor, especially the EGFR/HER2 pathway, and ER pathways has been associated with endocrine resistance. Thus, combination therapy targeting both ER and EGFR/HER2 signaling to block the crosstalk between these pathways and eliminate escape routes have been proven effective in both preclinical and clinical models. Anti-HER2 directed therapy has been reported to restore hormone sensitivity in HER2−positive breast cancers. Adding trastuzumab to conventional treatment has been a standard treatment of choice in HER2−positive breast cancer irrespective of hormonal receptor (HR) status. The purpose of the study is to evaluate adding effect of 1 year of trastuzumab to conventional adjuvant treatment in patients with HER2−positive breast cancer who received surgery according to HR status.
Patients and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of 618 postoperative HER2−positive breast cancer patients between 2001 and 2008 at the Samsung Medical Center. Most of HER2−positive patients in our institute were treated with 1 year of trastuzumab as a part of adjuvant therapy since 2007 (post-trastuzumab era) compared with 2000–2006 (pre-trastuzumab era). Clinical outcomes including recurrence-free survival (RFS) were analyzed between pre-trastuzumab and post-trastuzumab era according to HR status. We performed Cox regression multivariate analysis for relapse using variables from univariate analysis by log-rank test for relapse. Clinical presentations and clinicopathologic characteristics were evaluated at the time of recurrence between both eras.
Results: The median age at diagnosis was 46 years (range, 22–79). During the median 60.0 months of follow-up, the 5-year recurrence rate was 20.2%. The 618 patients were divided into two groups (patients who received (n=175) and did not receive (n=443) adjuvant trastuzumab). Recurrence rate was much lower in post-trastuzumab era than in pre-trastuzumab era (13.6% vs. 32.3%, p<0.0001). Improving outcomes due to adding trastuzumab in patients with HER2+ve/HR-ve patients showed significant benefit from trastuzumab throughout the follow-up period (p=0.004). However, this improving effect appeared not to be consistent with statistical significance in HER2+ve/HR+ve patients (p=0.135). The analyses were performed according to quantitative ER Allred scores in HER2+ve/ER+ve patients, the effect of adding trastuzumab appeared to be mitigated as time over without any statistical significance (p=0.975). Young age (≤35) (hazard ratio (HR) 2.4, p<0.0001), trastuzumab use (HR 0.4, p=0.001), and node positivity (HR 2.8, p<0.0001) were identified as independent prognostic factors for recurrence in Cox-regression multivariate analysis. Limiting to HER2+ve/ER+ve patients, the statistical significances of trastuzumab use as independent factors were not maintained in Cox-regression models (p=0.074 for trastuzumab use).
Conclusion: Cross-talk between ER and EGFR/HER2 pathways may mitigate trastuzumab effect in HER2+ve/ER+ve breast cancers. Further study is warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose Ipsilateral Breast Tumor Recurrence(IBTR!) 2.0 is web-based tool which predict the ten years risk of local recurrence after breast conserving theraphy. This tool integrates seven prognostic factors (patient age, margin status, lymphovascular invasion, tumor size, tumor grade, use of chemotherapy and hormonal therapy) for local recurrence with or without radiation theraphy. To validate IBTR! 2.0 for Korean breast cancer patients, Samsung Medical Center database was used between 1994 and 2001.
Methods The IBTR! 2.0 nomogram was tested against 358 patients who underwent breast conserving surgery with radiation theraphy from Samsung Medical Center between 1994 and 2001. The individual dadabase which was entered into IBTR! 2.0 computer model generate predictive local recurrence rate. The mean predicted and observed 10-year estimates were compared for the entire cohort and for four groups predefined by nomogram-predicted risks: group 1: less than 3%; group 2: 3% to 5%; group 3: 5% to 10%; and group 4: more than 10%.
Results IBTR! version 2.0 predicted an overall 10-year IBTR estimate of 5.5% (95% CI, 5.2 to 5.9), while the observed estimate was 7.69% (20 IBTR cases in 358 patients, 95% CI, 1.6 to 9.3; P=0.59).
The predicted and observed IBTR estimates were: group 1 ( 2 cases in 67 patients): 2.3% versus 2.9%, P=0.53; group 2 (2 cases in 124 patients)): 3.9% versus 4.1%, P=0.18; group 3 (14 cases in 139 patinets): 7.3% versus 4.8%, P=0.13; and group 4 (2 cases in 28 patients): 12.15% versus 7.1%, P=0.61.
Conclusion IBTR! 2.0 is acceptable nomogram for predicting 10 years local recurrence using Samsung medical Center database. This nomogram showed overestimation in group 3, 4, however did not showed statistical differences. This nomogram may assist patient counseling and medical decision making, but prior to using whole Korean patients, this model requires validation with multiple Korean sources.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hormone receptor (HR) positive breast cancers characterized with ER-associated genes are differentiated luminal B from luminal A tumors mainly by proliferation genes. According to NCCN guideline 2011, node positivity has been a main determinant to decide adjuvant chemotherapy with category 1. However, the experts’ panel at the St. Gallen Consensus in 2009 do not provides definite indications to give or withhold chemotherapy in patient group with intermediate criteria including low numbers (1-3, N1) of involved lymph nodes. Thus, in cases of limited number of nodal metastases, the role of biologic factors including Ki67 index needs to be defined. The aims of this study are to evaluate of Ki67 index as a useful surrogate marker to predict recurrence and to avoid unnecessary adjuvant chemotherapy and to develop nomogram based on Ki67 index to determine adjuvant therapeutic options in HR-positive in N0 and N1 breast cancers.
Patients and Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of 953 postoperative HR-positive N0 and N1 breast cancer patients between 2004 and 2007 at the Samsung Medical Center. We constructed nomogram based on Cox regression model using independent factors demonstrated in multivariate analysis and validated externally in a cohort of 895 patients treated at Seoul National University Hospital.
Results: In Cox regression multivariate analysis, ER-ve/PgR+ve and Ki67 index were identified as independent factors.
Nomogram base on Cox-regression model showed an AUC of 0.75 (95% CI, 0.72−0.77) in the training set. The validation set showed a good discrimination with an AUC of 0.63 (95% CI, 0.60−0.66). We defined low nomogram score as less than 53, and high nomogram score as 53 or more from the cut-off value of the nomogrma ROC curve. Patients who received anthracycline-containing adjuvant chemotherapy with high nomogram scores showed better RFS with statistical significance than those who did not receive anthracycline-containing adjuvant chemotherapy with high nomogram scores (p<0.0001). In contrast, the patients with low nomogram scores did not show any benefit from anthracycline-containing adjuvant chemotherapy (p=0.804). When the patients with high nomogram scores divided into two groups according to Allred ER scores (0-4 vs 5–8), the patients with high ER Allred scores (5-8) and high nomogram scores did not show any benefit from anthracycline-containing chemotherapy (p=0.283). Main benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy is focused on the patients with low ER Allred scores (0-4) and high nomogram score (p=0.022).
Conclusion: Ki67 index is useful as a valuable surrogate marker to predict recurrence and to avoid unnecessary chemotherapy. Nomogram based on Ki67 index is constructed and validated to determine adjuvant therapeutic options in HR-positive N0 and N1 breast cancers.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Metaplastic breeast cancer (MBC) is a rare, heterogenous cancer characterized by admixture of adenocarcinoma with metaplastic elements, low hormone receptor expression and poor outcome. This study was planned to assess the clinicopathological chacteristics and immunohistochemical findings of MBC compared to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) including the triple-negative subtype (TN-IDC). Material and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 47 MBC and 1,346 IDC patients. Two hundred eighteen TN-IDC patients were included in the 1,346 IDC patients. Between 2005 and 2009, these patients were undergone surgical treatment at the Samsung Medical Center. Patients were reviewed clinicopathologic factors, immunohistochemistry of biologic factors such as ER, PR, HER-2, p53, Ki67, cytokeratine (CK) 5/6, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and treatment modalities (type of operation, use of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormone therapy). Result: The MBC patients presented with a larger tumor size (>T1, 66.0% vs. 44.3.%, P = 0.008), lower lymph node involvement (N0, 73.3% vs. 55.6%, P = 0.03), higher histologic (HG) and nuclear grade (NG) (HG3, 70.0% vs. 41.5%, P = 0.001; NG3,82.6% vs. 46.9%, P < 0.001), fewer estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER2 positivity (ER+, 4.3% vs. 69.2%, P < 0.001; PR+, 6.4% vs. 63.5%, P < 0.001; HER2+, 0% vs. 27.6%, P < 0.001), higher p53, CK5/6 and EGFR expression (p53+, 63.8% vs.38.8%, P < 0.001; CK5/6+, 71.9% vs.21.5%, P < 0.001; EGFR+, 93.9% vs.21.6%, P <0.001) and more TN subtypes (93.6% vs. 16.2%, P < 0.001) compared to the IDC group. There was no significant difference in clinicopathological characteristics with MBC and TN-IDC except EGFR over expression (EGFR+, 93.9% vs.69.0%, P = 0.017). In follow-up duration (median 30 months, range 2-56 months), seven (14.9%) MBC patients and 98 (7.2%) IDC patients recurred. The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 78.1% in the MBC group and 91.1% in IDC group (P <0.001). The 3-year DFS rate was not significantly difference between MBC group and TN-IDC group (78.1% vs. 84.9%, P = 0.114). However, in patients with lymph node metastasis who underwent adjuvant chemotherapy, the 3-year DFS rate was 44.4% in MBC group and 72.5% in TN-IDC group (P = 0.025).
Discussion: In our result, MBC show poorer clinical outcome than IDC. It is not shown significant difference between MBC and TN-IDC. However, MBC patients with nodal metastasis have poorer prognosis than TN-IDC patients with metastasis despite adjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Differentiation by multigene signatures with excellent performance of hormone receptor (HR)-positive BC largely related to their proliferation genes. Despite questions about its usefulness, there is increasing evidence that Ki67 is a valuable prognostic marker. Standardization of Ki67 pathological assessment is the main problem to interpret reported trials.
The aims of the study are to evaluate the role Ki67 as prognostic marker to predict relapse in HR-positive BC patients (luminal A and B) in adjuvant setting using prospective patients’ cohort. In addition, cut-off value and significant level of Ki67 were investigated comparing with other biomarkers including HER2 in luminal BCs.
Method: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic characteristics of 1,070 postoperative breast cancer patients including Ki67 and clinical outcomes in terms of relapse free survival (RFS) between 2004 and 2007 at the Samsung Medical Center. Ki67 labelling index was measured in quantitative and semiquantitative method, independently. The percentage of positive nuclei stained for Ki67 was calculated each section based on the approximately 1,000 carcinoma cell nuclei. In addition, Ki67 was graded on a scale from 0 to 4, where 0 = staining of 0-4% of tumor cells, 1 = staining of 5-25% of tumor cells, 2 = 26-50% of tumor cells, 3 = staining of 51-75% of tumor cells, and 4 = staining of more than 76% of tumor cells. ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the usefulness of Ki67 index to get AUC then, find out the proper cut-off value of Ki67 to predict relapse. Multivariate analyses with Cox-regression model were performed. Results: Among 1,564 patients who received curative surgery for invasive breast cancer from January 2004 to June 2007, 1,070 patients with HR-positive were included in this analysis excluding 494 with HER2-enriched or triple negative breast cancer patients. Median follow-up duration was 56.9 months (range 36-77 months). Median age was 46 years (range 22-83 years). Ki67 threshold >19.5%, corresponding to a sensitivity 78.3%, a specificity 51.6% was chosen as cut-off value for relapse in adjuvant patients’ cohort. The AUC was 0.689 (P<0.0001 by Mann-Whitney U test). Overall relapse rate was 5.6%. In univariate analysis by log-rank test for relapse, ER negativity (p=0.010), HER2 positivity (p=0.017), histologic (p=0.001), and nuclear grade (p=0.012), lymphovascular invasion (P<0.0001), TNM stage (0.001), and Ki67 (P<0.0001) were identified risk factors to predict relapse. However, ER negativity, Ki67, and stage were identified as independent risk factors for relapse (Hazard Ratio (HR) 2.7, p=0.031 for ER negativity, HR 3.4, p <0.0001 for Ki67, HR 1.6, p=0.017 for stage) in Cox-regression multivariate analysis. Conclusion: Ki67 could strongly predict clinical outcomes for patients with luminal. 19.5% may be useful cut-off value of Ki67 labelling index. Ki67 may be a better biomarker to predict clinical outcomes than HER2 expression in luminal BCs. ER-/PR+ subset probably has different biology with other luminal BCs. Prospective clinical trials to choose therapeutic option using Ki67 are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to identify reliable predictive biological markers for treatment outcome following neoadjuvant adriamycin/docetaxel (AT) chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was a phase II study on AT neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer patients. Patients received 50 mg/m(2) of doxorubicin intravenously (IV) over 15 min followed by docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) infused over 1 h, repeated every 3 weeks for three cycles. Surgery was performed within 3-4 weeks following the last cycle of chemotherapy. We analyzed the pre-treatment and post-treatment expression levels of ER, PgR, HER-2, Ki-67 proliferation index, and p53 and examined the correlation between the markers and clinical parameters with treatment response, overall survival and relapse-free survival following neoadjuvant treatment. RESULTS From July 2001 to September 2004, 61 patients were enrolled. The meaningful parameters adversely influencing survival were post-treatment ER(-) status (P = 0.013) and post-treatment Ki-67 index above 1.0% (P = 0.013). At the multivariate level, the post-treatment Ki-67 proliferation index < or = 1.0 was the only meaningful prognostic factor for better survival (P = 0.033). Notably, tumors with Ki-67 index < or = 1.0 were more likely to express ER with statistical significance (P = 0.002). Tumors with ER(+) and Ki-67 index < or = 1.0 showed the highest survival rate, followed by ER(+) and Ki-67 index > 1.0%, ER(-) and Ki-67 < or = 1.0%, and ER(-) and Ki-67 > 1.0% with the worst survival (P = 0.033). CONCLUSION Collectively, post-treatment ER status and Ki-67 proliferation index were prognostic of overall survival following neoadjuvant AT chemotherapy.

Abstract
AIMS In order to achieve complete resection in the surgical management of retroperitoneal tumors, it is crucial to know the tumor's anatomical location relative to neighboring organs. METHODS Forty-nine patients with primary malignant retroperitoneal tumors were divided by tumor location into two groups [upper abdomen (group 1) or lower abdomen (group 2)], and clinicopathological features, tumor recurrence, and patient survival were assessed. RESULTS No significant differences in preoperative clinical characteristics existed between two groups, and liposarcoma was the most frequently observed tumor type. The difference in the rates of complete resection between the two groups was not statistically significant (75.9% for group 1 and 85% for group 2). En-bloc combined resection was performed in 52% and 30% of patients in groups 1 and 2, respectively. The local recurrence rate in group 2 (31.3%) was higher than that in group 1 (9.5%), despite the fact that the differences in rates of complete resection and distant recurrence rates (14.3% in group 1 and 12.5% in group 2) between the two groups were not statistically significant. The overall 5-year survival rates were 67.9% for group 1 and 43.2% for group 2 (p=0.038). The 5-year survival rate of patients with tumors smaller than 10 cm was 78.4%, while that of patients with tumors larger than 10 cm was 38.1% (p=0.017). The 5-year survival rate after complete excision was 61%, whereas that after incomplete resection or biopsy only was 40.0% (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS An upper abdominal tumor location is a positive prognostic factor even if small tumor size (<10 cm) and complete resection of the tumor are still more important factors to improve outcome in patients with malignant primary retroperitoneal tumors. Because complete resection was shown to be the most important prognostic factor, an aggressive and careful surgical approach is recommended for the treatment of such tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although most of the literature about health-related quality of life (HRQoL) focuses on breast cancer patients, few studies compared the HRQoL in disease-free breast cancer survivors with that of the general population. MATERIALS AND METHODS We administered the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 and Quality of Life Questionnaire Breast Cancer Module, McGill Quality of Life Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory, and Brief Fatigue Inventory to 1933 disease-free survivors for over 1 year after being diagnosed with stage 0 to III breast cancer. We performed multivariate-adjusted analyses in all HRQoL comparisons. RESULTS The scores for some health-related quality of life [corrected] HRQoL scales were comparable for both disease-free breast cancer survivors and the general female population, but [corrected] there was a [corrected] clinically significant difference between the two groups [corrected] in cognitive and social functioning, fatigue, insomnia, financial difficulties, body image, future perspective, breast symptoms, and arm symptoms. [corrected] CONCLUSIONS Disease-free survivors of breast cancer had good HRQoL, which was less affected by the type of treatment than it was by demographic characteristics, time since surgery, comorbidity, fatigue, and depression.

Abstract
A phase I dose-escalation clinical trial of peritumoral injections of interleukin 12 (IL-12)-transduced autologous fibroblasts was performed in patients with disseminated cancer for whom effective treatment does not exist. The goals of this study were to assess the safety and toxicities as well as the efficacy, and ancillarily the immunomodulatory effects, of peritumoral IL-12 gene transfer. Primary dermal fibroblasts cultured from the patients were transduced with retroviral vector carrying human IL-12 genes (p35 and p40) as well as the neomycin phosphotransferase gene (TFG-hIL-12-Neo). Patients received four injections at intervals of 7 days. Nine patients were enrolled in this dose-escalation study, with secreted IL-12 doses ranging from 300 ng/24 hr for the first three patients to 1000, 3000, and 5000 ng/24 hr for two patients in each subsequent dosage level. Although a definite statement cannot be made, there appears to be perturbation of systemic immunity. Also, the locoregional effects mediated by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and CD8+ T cells were observed with tumor regression. Treatment-related adverse events were limited to mild to moderate pain at the injection site; clinically significant toxicities were not encountered. Transient but clear reductions of tumor sizes were observed at the injected sites in four of nine cases, and at noninjected distant sites in one melanoma patient. Hemorrhagic necrosis of tumors was observed in two melanoma patients. These data indicate that gene therapy by peritumoral injection of IL-12-producing autologous fibroblasts is feasible, and promising in patients with advanced cancer.

Abstract
Outbreaks of an avian disease in infectious bronchitis-vaccinated chickens in China have led to the characterization of coronaviral isolates Q1, J2, and T3, which were isolated from proventricular tissues of the affected young layer flocks. Serologic analysis revealed that they could induce high titers of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) antibodies in inoculated specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chickens in indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay but were not neutralized by antisera specific to the IBV serotype M41 and the Australian T strain. In a pathogenicity experiment, the clinical signs and related gross lesions resembling those of field outbreaks were reproduced in SPF chickens, and viruses were reisolated from the damaged tissues, including trachea, proventriculus, duodenum, and cecal tonsil. Sequence data demonstrated the complete S1 amino acid sequences of these isolates were almost identical despite recovery from geographically different areas in China and had 47.3%-82.3% similarity in comparison with the 47 published S1 sequences. On the basis of genotyping and limited serology, the three isolates, which were responsible for field outbreaks of the disease, might be a new IBV variant.

Abstract
p21Waf1 (p21), p27Kip1 (p27) and cyclin D1 have recently been reported as useful prognostic markers for patients with breast carcinoma. However, studies on these cell cycle regulators in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) have been extremely limited. Therefore, we studied the immunohistochemical expression of p21, p27 and cyclin D1 proteins in 49 DCIS cases and compared the findings with the clinicopathologic parameters (age, tumor size, gross type, histologic type, histologic grade, necrosis and mitotic index), p53 and estrogen receptor (ER) status. A significant correlation was found between positive p21 immunoreactivity (67.3% of the cases) and well-differentiated histologic grade, non-comedo type, ER-positive and p53-negative (p53-) status. DCIS with p21+/p53- is likely to be the non-comedo type. The overexpression of cyclin D1 (59.2% of the cases) correlated positively with the ER expression (P = 0.001). The p27 protein expression (46.9% of the cases) correlated with the cyclin D1 immunopositivity (P = 0.0003) and ER expression (P = 0.005). No significant associations were seen in the p27 or cyclin D1 expression and other clinicopathologic parameters. Our results suggest that p21 might be more related to the useful biologic markers in DCIS than p27 or cyclin D1. The significant positive association between p21, p27 or cyclin D1 and ER status, and close association of p27 and cyclin D1 expression might be implicated in the tumor biology of DCIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although axillary lymph node status is an important prognostic factor and axillary dissection is regarded as the gold standard for staging, it requires radical surgery which is accompanied by considerable postoperative problems such as lymphedema. This study was carried out to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative positron emission tomography (PET) and intraoperative frozen biopsy of sentinel lymphadenectomy (SLND) in detecting axillary lymph node metastasis. METHODS We studied 18 patients who had preoperative PET and SLND for breast cancer in the Department of Surgery at Samsung Medical Center. They all had preoperative PET with a radiolabeled glucose analogue ([18F]FDG) to visualize primary tumors and metastatic nodes. Isosulphan blue dye was used for intraoperative SLND. Frozen and permanent biopsies were then compared after full axillary dissection. RESULTS In 18 cases, six had positive metastatic nodes in the permanent biopsy of full axillary dissection but were negative in three cases by preoperative PET. There was one false negative result by frozen biopsy of SLND which was later shown to be positive by permanent biopsy. The sensitivity and specificity of SLND and PET for detecting axillary node metastasis were 83, 100% and 50, 100%, respectively. CONCLUSION Although both methods are good for axillary nodal status, the intraoperative frozen biopsy result of SLND was superior to preoperative PET in our preliminary study.

Abstract
In Asia, mammography following the injection of foreign materials into the breasts for cosmetic augmentation is frequently seen and diagnosis based on the typical radiologic findings is straightforward. We report the unusual radiologic findings in two patients with foreign body granulomas caused by injected foreign materials and discovered incidentally during screening work up. The mammographic findings were bilateral, hyperdense, spiculated masses, with occasional microcalcification, and at sonography, markedly hypoechoic, spiculated solid masses, located near the pectoralis muscle and partly extending into it, were observed. These radiologic findings mimicked malignancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is characterized by a high concentration of serum calcitonin. Routine measurement of serum calcitonin concentration has been advocated for detection of MTC among patients with nodular thyroid diseases. However, a minimal to moderate increase of serum calcitonin concentration has been frequently observed in diseases other than MTC. Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is not a reliable method for detection of MTC. Therefore, we evaluated the usefulness of routine measurement of serum calcitonin concentration in patients with nodular thyroid diseases, and studied the validity of pentagastrin stimulation test and FNAC in these patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We performed routine measurement of serum calcitonin concentrations in 1,448 patients (male, 285, female, 1,163) with nodular thyroid diseases. The average age was 46 years (range, 14-86 years). Initial examination included thyroid examination, thyroid scan or ultrasonography, measurements of serum free triiodothyronine) (T3), free thyroxine (T4), thyrotropin (TSH) levels, and antithyroid autoantibodies. FNAC was performed in all patients who had palpable or visible thyroid nodule by ultrasonography, and pentagastrin stimulation test was performed in 39 patients who consented. Serum calcitonin concentration was measured with a two-site immunoradiometric assay using commercial kits. We also measured the serum calcitonin concentration in 407 healthy subjects without thyroid or nonthyroid diseases. RESULTS Serum calcitonin concentration was 10 pg/mL or less in 403 normal subjects (99.0 percentile), and 11-13 pg/mL in the remaining 4 subjects. We found that 56 (3.87%) of 1,448 patients with nodular thyroid diseases had serum calcitonin level above 10 pg/mL. Ten patients (0.69%) with histologically confirmed MTC were detected by the routine measurement of serum calcitonin. The prevalence of MTC was 5.2% in 194 patients with thyroid carcinoma. Five of 10 patients with MTC had basal serum calcitonin level above 100 pg/mL. The remaining 5 patients had minimal or moderate elevation of basal serum calcitonin (range, 12-86 pg/mL). Serum calcitonin concentration increased to more than 100 pg/mL by pentagastrin in all patients with MTC (2.4- to 37.7-fold increase). FNAC suggested MTC in only 2 patients (22.2%), and failed to diagnose MTC in 7 patients. FNAC was not performed in 1 patient with MTC, because he had no visible mass by ultrasonography. CONCLUSION These results suggested that routine measurement of serum calcitonin is useful in the early detection of MTC among patients with nodular thyroid diseases. Pentagastrin stimulation test may also be a reliable way for evaluating thyroid nodular patients with mild or moderate elevation of serum calcitonin concentrations. However, FNAC was not sensitive in detecting MTC. We recommend routine measurement of serum calcitonin concentration in patients with nodular thyroid diseases.
