Analytical and clinical performance of progesterone receptor antibodies in breast cancer.
Annals of Diagnostic Pathology 2018 August
OBJECTIVE: Comparison of analytical and immunohistochemical performance of progesterone receptor (PR) antibodies with correlation to recurrence of invasive breast cancer treated with endocrine therapy.
METHODS: The binding-affinity kinetics of PR clones 1E2, 1A6, 16 and 636 were compared using synthetic peptides derived from identified epitopes on a Biacore T200. A cohort of 351 cases (Hormone Receptor (HR)+/HER2-) were stained for PR expression with immunohistochemistry (IHC) and scored according to ASCO/CAP criteria.
RESULTS: The stability of the antigen/antibody complex was greater for the 1E2 clone compared to 1A6, 16 and 636 clones. PR IHC on archival tissue resulted in 94.3% (299/317) concordance with clones.
CONCLUSION: Clones evaluated in this study had a high level of concordance with IHC despite PR (1E2) demonstrating higher analytical binding properties than other clones. In a minority of cases (1.3% for 1E2 and 2.5% for 636) IHC results could convert estrogen receptor (ER)-/PR- to ER-/PR+ tumors, making these patients potentially eligible for endocrine therapy.
