Chromatin profile-based identification of a novel ER-positive breast cancer subgroup with reduced ER-responsive element accessibility
BackgroundOestrogen receptor (ER) signalling-dependent cancer cell growth is one of the major features of ER-positive breast cancer (BC). Inhibition...
-
AGR2 and FOXA1 as prognostic markers in ER-positive breast cancer
BackgroundThe prognostic role of either forkhead box A1 (FOXA1) or anterior gradient 2 (AGR2) in breast cancer has been found separately. Considering...

Tafazzin mediates tamoxifen resistance by regulating cellular phospholipid composition in ER-positive breast cancer
Tamoxifen is the frontline therapeutic agent for the estrogen receptor-positive (ER + ) subtype of breast cancer patients, which accounts for 70–80%...
-
Lasofoxifene as a potential treatment for aromatase inhibitor-resistant ER-positive breast cancer
BackgroundBreast cancers treated with aromatase inhibitors (AIs) can develop AI resistance, which is often driven by estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα/ ESR1...
-
Molecular differences between younger versus older ER-positive and HER2-negative breast cancers
The RxPONDER and TAILORx trials demonstrated benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy in patients age ≤ 50 with node-positive breast cancer and Recurrence...
-
Estrogen receptor inhibition mediates radiosensitization of ER-positive breast cancer models
Endocrine therapy (ET) is an effective first-line therapy for women with estrogen receptor-positive (ER + ) breast cancers. While both ionizing...
-
Comprehensive analysis of a cuproptosis-related ceRNA network implicates a potential endocrine therapy resistance mechanism in ER-positive breast cancer
BackgroundWhile adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) may decrease the mortality rate of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC), the...

QL1209 (pertuzumab biosimilar) versus reference pertuzumab plus trastuzumab and docetaxel in neoadjuvant treatment for HER2-positive, ER/PR-negative, early or locally advanced breast cancer: A multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, parallel-controlled, phase III equivalence trial
BackgroundThis randomized, parallel-controlled, double-blinded, phase III equivalence study evaluated the equivalence of a proposed pertuzumab...

Effects of neoadjuvant trastuzumab, pertuzumab and palbociclib on Ki67 in HER2 and ER-positive breast cancer
The crosstalk between estrogen and HER2 receptors and cell-cycle regulation sustains resistance to endocrine therapy of HER2- and hormone...

Circulating tumor cell number and endocrine therapy index in ER positive metastatic breast cancer patients
Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are prognostic in metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The CTC-endocrine therapy index (CTC-ETI), consisting of CTC-ER...

Selective pressure of endocrine therapy activates the integrated stress response through NFκB signaling in a subpopulation of ER positive breast cancer cells
BackgroundWhile estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast tumors generally respond well to endocrine therapy (ET), up to 40% of patients will experience...
-
Stereotactic radiotherapy for oligoprogressive ER-positive breast cancer (AVATAR)
BackgroundThe enhanced knowledge of cancer biology has led to considerable advancement in systemic therapy for advanced breast cancer. Recently,...

Neoadjuvant everolimus plus letrozole versus fluorouracil, epirubicin and cyclophosphamide for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer: a randomized pilot trial
BackgroundHere we evaluated the feasibility, efficacy, tolerability, and treatment-mediated immune modulation of neoadjuvant everolimus plus...
-
Response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on pathologic complete response in very young patients with ER-positive breast cancer: a large, multicenter, observational study
BackgroundIn estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer (BC), young age is associated with poor prognosis. While very young patients respond...

Combination of ZEN-3694 with CDK4/6 inhibitors reverses acquired resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors in ER-positive breast cancer
CDK4/6 inhibitors significantly prolong progression-free survival in patients with advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+) HER2-negative breast...

p4EBP1 staining predicts outcome in ER-positive endocrine-resistant metastatic breast cancer patients treated with everolimus and exemestane
BackgroundTo identify patients most likely to respond to everolimus, a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, a prospective biomarker study...
-
Lasofoxifene as a potential treatment for therapy-resistant ER-positive metastatic breast cancer
BackgroundEndocrine therapy remains the mainstay of treatment for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. Constitutively active mutations in...
-
Molecular intrinsic subtypes, genomic, and immune landscapes of BRCA-proficient but HRD-high ER-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancers
PurposeThe vast majority of research studies that have described the links between DNA damage repair or homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)...

miR-221/222 sponge abrogates tamoxifen resistance in ER-positive breast cancer cells through restoring the expression of ERα
Tamoxifen resistance (TamR) prevents ER-positive breast cancer patients from benefitting from endocrine therapy, and miR-221 or miR-222 plays vital...
