ABSTRACT

Inflammation-modulating nutrients and inflammatory markers are established cancer risk factors, however, evidence regarding the association between post-diagnosis diet-associated inflammation and breast cancer survival is relatively sparse. We aimed to examine the association between post-diagnosis dietary inflammatory index (DII®) and risks of all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality. A total of 1064 female breast cancer survivors in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening (PLCO) Trial prospective cohort, were included in this analysis if they had completed the diet history questionnaire (DHQ). Energy-adjusted DII (E-DIITM) scores were calculated based on food and supplement intake. Cox regression and competing risk models were used to estimate multivariable-adjusted hazards ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) by E-DII tertile (T) for all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality. With median follow-up of 14.6 years, there were 296 (27.8%) deaths from all causes and 100 (9.4%) breast cancer-specific death. The E-DII was associated with all-cause mortality (HR T3 vs T1, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.01-1.81; P trend, 0.049, Table 2) and breast cancer mortality (HR T3 vs T1, 1.47; 95% CI, 0.89-2.43; P trend, 0.13; multivariable-adjusted HR for 1-unit increment: 1.10; 95% CI: 1.00-1.22). Non-linear positive dose-response associations with mortality from all causes were identified for E-DII scores (P non-linearity < 0.05). The post-diagnosis E-DII was statistically significantly associated with mortality risk among breast cancer survivors. Long-term anti-inflammatory diet might be a means of improving survival of breast cancer survivors.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Clinicopathologic and prognostic significance of body mass index (BMI) in breast cancer (BC) patients remained conflicting. We aimed to investigate and modify the impact of BMI on clinicopathological significance and survival in western Chinese BC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 8,394 female BC patients from Western China Clinical Cooperation Group (WCCCG) between 2005 and 2015 were identified. Multivariable logistic regression and Cox proportion hazard regressions were used to examine the difference of clinicopathologic and survival characteristics between BMI categories. RESULTS: For the premenopausal, overweight and obese (OW) patients tended to have large tumor size (>5cm) (odds ratio [OR], 1.30, P<0.01) and triple-negative BC (OR, 1.31; P=0.01) compared with normal weight (NW) patients. Premenopausal underweight (UW) patients had a significantly higher risk of HER2 positive (OR, 1.71; P=0.02) and distant metastasis (OR, 2.59; P=0.01). For postmenopausal patients, OW patients showed higher risks of large tumor size (>5cm) (OR, 1.46; P=0.01), nuclear grade III (OR, 1.24; P=0.04), and lymphovascular invasion (OR, 1.46; P=0.01) compared with NW patients. An "U" shaped relationship between BMI and DFS was found (UW versus NW, adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 2.80, P<0.001; OW versus NW, adjusted HR, 1.40, P=0.02), whereas no significant difference of disease-free survival (DFS) between OW and NW premenopausal patients (adjusted HR=1.34, P=0.18) was revealed. CONCLUSION: We concluded that UW and OW were associated with aggressively clinicopathological characteristics, regardless of menopausal status. An "U" shaped association of BMI and DFS was revealed, and no significant difference of DFS between OW and NW in postmenopausal subgroup was revealed.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Role of surgery in the management of de novo stage IV breast cancer (BC) remains controversial. We aimed to determine the survival benefit of primary surgery on the basis of metastatic pattern. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective cohort study based on the SEER database was conducted to identify patients with de novo stage IV BC diagnosed between 2010 and 2015. Patients were divided into surgery and non-surgery group, and propensity score weighting was used to balance clinicopathologic factors between groups. RESULTS: Of 8142 de novo stage IV BC patients, 1891 (23%) cases were managed with surgery and 6251 (77%) cases were managed without surgery. There were 3821 all-cause deaths and 3291 BC specific deaths over a median follow-up of 22 months. The weighted 3-year overall survival (OS) for the surgery group was 54.5%, compared to 47.7% (P < 0.001) for the non-surgery group. The magnitude of the survival difference with surgery was significantly correlated with metastatic patterns (Pinteraction<0.05). Significant survival improvements in surgery group compared with non-surgery group were observed in patients with bone-only metastasis (adjusted HR = 0.83, P < 0.05) or multiple metastases with bone involved (adjusted HR = 0.76, P < 0.05), whereas survival inferiority of surgery was found for patients with multiple visceral organs-only metastases (adjusted HR = 2.08, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The survival benefit offered by surgery for de novo stage IV BC varies by metastatic patterns. Decisions for primary surgery of de novo stage IV BC patients should be tailored according to metastatic pattern.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Accumulating evidence indicated that triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) can stimulate stronger immune responses than other subtypes of breast cancer. We hypothesized that integrating immune-related genomic signatures with clinicopathologic factors may yield a predictive accuracy exceeding that of the currently available system. METHODS: Ten signatures that reflect specific immunogenic or immune microenvironmental features of TNBC were identified and re-analyzed using bioinformatic methods. Then, clinically annotated TNBC (n = 711) with the corresponding expression profiles, which predicted a patient's probability of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), was pooled to evaluate their prognostic values and establish a clinicopathologic-genomic nomogram. Three and two immune features were, respectively, selected out of 10 immune features to construct nomogram for DFS and OS prediction based on multivariate backward stepwise Cox regression analyses. RESULTS: By integrating the above immune expression signatures with prognostic clinicopathologic features, clinicopathologic-genomic nomograms were cautiously constructed, which showed reasonable prediction accuracies (DFS: HR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.46-2.18, P < 0.001; AUC, 0.71; OS: HR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.54-2.49; P < 0.001; AUC, 0.73). The nomogram showed low-risk subgroup had higher immune checkpoint molecules (PD-L1, PD-1, CTLA-4, LAG-3) expression and benefited from radiotherapy (HR, 0.2, 95% CI, 0.05-0.89; P = 0.034) rather than chemotherapy (HR, 1.26, 95% CI, 0.66-2.43; P = 0.485). CONCLUSIONS: These findings offer evidence that immune-related genomic data provide independent and complementary prognostic information for TNBC, and the nomogram might be a practical predictive tool to identify TNBC patients who would benefit from chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and upcoming popularity of immunotherapy.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The role of histology subtype on the prognosis of T1-2 breast cancer patients receiving breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is not clear. METHODS: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program was used to compare overall survival, second primary cancer-free survival (CFS), and local recurrence risk (LR) for patients with invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), both receiving BCS. RESULTS: The study enrolled 196,688 patients with T1-2 disease receiving BCS, including 12,906 with ILC and 183,782 with IDC. Patients with IDC showed higher unadjusted annual rates of BCS than ILC. Five- and 10-year estimated survival rates were, respectively, 92.06% and 86.14% in ILC, compared to 90.50% and 85.26% in IDC (P = .12). In multivariable Cox regression, ILC patients showed advantage over IDC in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.93, P = .001), whereas no significant differences in CFS (HR = 1.03, P = .33) and LR (HR = 1.17, P = .06) were found, which were consistent with results from matched cohort. In subgroup analyses, patients with grade III ILC had poorer CFS (HR = 1.23, P = .009) and higher LR (HR = 1.59, P = .01) than IDC. CONCLUSION: Histologic type is of prognostic importance in T1-2 patients receiving BCS, and surgeons should be cautious in performing BCS for individuals with grade III ILC.
