Molecular subtyping improves breast cancer diagnosis in the Copenhagen Breast Cancer Genomics Study.
JCI Insight 2024 April 9
BACKGROUNDIntrinsic molecular subtypes define distinct biological breast cancers and can be used to further improve diagnosis and risk allocation.METHODSThe Copenhagen Breast Cancer Genomics Study (CBCGS) prospectively included women diagnosed with breast cancer at Rigshospitalet from 2014 to 2021. Eligible patients were females with a primary invasive breast cancer (T1c, if N0M0; otherwise, any T, any N, or any M stage) and no prior malignancy. All patients underwent molecular profiling with the CIT256 and PAM50 molecular profile.RESULTSIn the study period, 2,816 patients were included in the CBCGS. Molecular subtyping showed an increase in nonluminal (molecular-apocrine, luminal C, and Basal-like) as compared with luminal (luminal A, luminal B, and Normal-like) subtypes with increasing stage from I to IV. Across all stages, we found a significant difference in survival among subtypes; 91% of patients with LumA were alive at 5 years compared with 91% for LumB, 84% for LumC, 82% for mApo, and 80% for Basal-like. We identified 442 tumors (16%) that were discordant in subtype between CIT256 and IHC. Discordant subtype proved to be a risk factor of death among patients with IHC luminal breast cancer (hazard ratio [HR], 2.08; 95% CI, 1.51-2.86) in a multivariable Cox regression analysis. Discordance occurred more often among patients with N3, stage IV, or grade III disease.CONCLUSIONOur findings indicate that molecular subtypes are a predominant classification for survival. Assessment is particularly crucial for patients with IHC luminal breast cancer with known high-risk factors, since they are at an increased risk of harboring an aggressive molecular subtype.
