The Role of Immunohistochemistry in Breast Cancer Patients Treated With Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: An Old Tool With an Enduring Prognostic Value

Micro-Abstract Pathologic complete response (pCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a potential surrogate for survival. We defined molecular subtypes determined by hormonal receptors (HR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. pCR was significantly higher in patients with HR− /HER2...

Zusammenfassung:Micro-Abstract Pathologic complete response (pCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a potential surrogate for survival. We defined molecular subtypes determined by hormonal receptors (HR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. pCR was significantly higher in patients with HR− /HER2− and in HR− /HER2+ breast cancer treated with dose-dense neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Molecular subtypes, pCR, and the Ki-67 proliferative marker were independent prognostic factors for disease-free survival and overall survival.
