Journal ArticleDOI

Gene-expression profiles to predict distant metastasis of lymph-node-negative primary breast cancer.

TL;DR: The ability to identify patients who have a favourable prognosis could, after independent confirmation, allow clinicians to avoid adjuvant systemic therapy or to choose less aggressive therapeutic options.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Classification of Tamoxifen-Resistant Breast Carcinomas by Gene Expression Profiling

TL;DR: Data show that gene expression profiling can be used to discriminate between breast cancer patients with progressive disease and objective response to tamoxifen, and additional studies are needed to confirm if the predictive signature might allow identification of individual patients who could benefit from other endocrine therapies.
Journal Article

RNA Expression of Breast Cancer Resistance Protein, Lung Resistance-related Protein, Multidrug Resistance-associated Proteins 1 and 2, and Multidrug Resistance Gene 1 in Breast Cancer: Correlation with Chemotherapeutic Response

TL;DR: MDR1 expression in primary breast tumors was inversely related with the efficacy of first-line chemotherapy, and high expression level was a significant predictor of poor prognosis for patients with advanced disease.
Journal Article

Enhanced benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients classified high-risk according to urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (n = 3424).

TL;DR: UPA and PAI-1 levels in primary tumor tissue provide clinically relevant information on relapse risk and treatment response that will help to tailor adjuvant therapy concepts in breast cancer, accounting for individual biological tumor characteristics.
