TLDR
The 13th St Gallen International Breast Cancer Conference (2013) Expert Panel reviewed and endorsed substantial new evidence on aspects of the local and regional therapies for early breast cancer, supporting less extensive surgery to the axilla and shorter durations of radiation therapy.

A New Challenge for Radiologists: Radiomics in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: The role of radiomics in breast cancer is assessed, focusing on the ability of the diagnostic tool to predict malignancy, response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, prognostic factors, molecular subtypes, and risk of recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutational profiles in triple-negative breast cancer defined by ultradeep multigene sequencing show high rates of PI3K pathway alterations and clinically relevant entity subgroup specific differences.

TL;DR: A breast cancer specific gene panel for semiconductor-based sequencing comprising 137 amplicons covering mutational hotspots in 44 genes is designed and validated and could demonstrate that breast cancer targeted hotspot sequencing is feasible in a routine setting and yields reliable and clinically meaningful results.

Lack of G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) in the plasma membrane is associated with excellent long-term prognosis in breast cancer

TL;DR: GPER overexpression and PM localization are critical events in breast cancer progression, and lack of GPER in the PM is associated with excellent long-term prognosis in ER-positive and PgR-positive tamoxifen-treated primary breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Invasive lobular breast cancer and its variants: How special are they for systemic therapy decisions?

TL;DR: There is a need for improving clinical research design to allow oncologists to make informed systemic therapy decisions in patients with ILC, and future studies should compare various endpoints in ILC breast cancer patients among the group of hormonosensitive breast cancer.

Strategies for subtypes—dealing with the diversity of breast cancer: highlights of the St Gallen International Expert Consensus on the Primary Therapy of Early Breast Cancer 2011

TL;DR: Broad treatment recommendations are presented, recognizing that detailed treatment decisions need to consider disease extent, host factors, patient preferences, and social and economic constraints.

Axillary dissection vs no axillary dissection in women with invasive breast cancer and sentinel node metastasis: A randomized clinical trial

TL;DR: Among patients with limited SLN metastatic breast cancer treated with breast conservation and systemic therapy, the use of SLND alone compared with ALND did not result in inferior survival, and overall survival was the primary end point, with a noninferiority margin of a 1-sided hazard ratio of less than 1.3 indicating thatSLND alone is noninherited.
