Radiation therapy for triple-negative breast cancer: from molecular insights to clinical perspectives.
Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy 2024 March 22
INTRODUCTION: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks three common receptors, making traditional treatments less effective. This review highlights the importance of radiotherapy and emerging therapeutic strategies to enhance treatment outcomes in TNBC.
AREAS COVERED: We conducted a literature search on PubMed for publications from 2000 to 2023 to discuss the critical role of radiotherapy in managing TNBC, emphasizing its applications from locoregional control to improving survival rates. The review explores molecular mechanisms underlying TNBC's radiotherapy response, including DNA damage repair and apoptosis, with a focus on BRCA1/2 mutations and Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition. We summarize preclinical and clinical research on radiosensitization strategies, from gene-targeted therapies to immunotherapy combinations, and the impact of post-mastectomy radiation therapy on locoregional control. The potential of personalized treatment approaches, integrating molecular profiling, targeted radiosensitizers, and the synergistic effects of radiotherapy with immunotherapy, is also discussed.
EXPERT OPINION: Future TNBC treatment strategies should focus on precision medicine, integrating immunotherapy, developing novel radiosensitizers, and targeting biological pathways to overcome radioresistance. The integration of radiomics and artificial intelligence offers promising avenues for enhancing treatment personalization and efficacy, aiming to improve patient outcomes in TNBC.
