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.

Expression of Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Receptor in Breast Cancer and Its Association with Pathologic, Biologic, and Clinical Parameters: A Study of 1,432 Primary Tumors.

TL;DR: Because GRPR is overexpressed in a high percentage of ER- positive tumors, GRPR targeting offers wide perspectives for imaging and treatment in patients with ER-positive breast cancer, using recently developed radiolabeled GRPR ligands.

Circulating MicroRNAs as easy-to-measure aging biomarkers in older breast cancer patients: Correlation with chronological age but not with fitness/frailty status

TL;DR: Interestingly, the age-associated miRNAs did not show differential expression between fit/healthy and non-fit/frail subjects within the older breast cancer cohort of the validation study and thus merit further investigation as true aging markers that not merely reflect frailty.

MCM2, MCM4, and MCM6 in Breast Cancer: Clinical Utility in Diagnosis and Prognosis.

TL;DR: A positive relationship exists among the three scoring methods of each of the four markers of Minichromosome Maintenance, which can help in distinction between luminal A and luminal B whose therapeutic management and clinical outcomes are different.

P53 and Ki-67 as prognostic markers in triple-negative breast cancer patients

TL;DR: It is suggested that p53, Ki-67 and family history are useful prognostic markers in TNBC, and the tumor size, lymph node involvement, and p53 expression are associated with risk of recurrence.

TL;DR: The ability to integrate information across platforms provided key insights into previously defined gene expression subtypes and demonstrated the existence of four main breast cancer classes when combining data from five platforms, each of which shows significant molecular heterogeneity.

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.
