RESUMO

PURPOSE: Stromal alterations are observed following preoperative systemic therapy in breast cancer. The aim of the present study was to analyze the qualitative and quantitative changes of representative tumor stroma proteins in the context of neoadjuvant therapy and the response of patients undergoing preoperative systemic therapy. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Fifty women receiving preoperative systemic therapy were evaluated for clinical and pathologic parameters. Clinical response was defined according to International Union against Cancer (UICC) criteria, whereas pathologic responses to preoperative systemic therapy were defined according to the Chevallier and Sataloff classifications. The expression of tenascin-C, syndecan-1, collagen IV, and smooth muscle actin proteins was investigated using morphometric analysis of immunohistochemical reactions. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR was done to evaluate the mRNA expression level of syndecan-1 and tenascin-C. The data were compared with 20 breast cancer samples of patients not treated with preoperative systemic therapy. RESULTS: According to UICC criteria, the expression levels of collagen IV were up-regulated in all preoperative systemic therapy-treated patients (P = 0.002). Collagen IV was up-regulated in the preoperative systemic therapy group in both Chevallier and Sataloff classifications compared with the control cases (P = 0.025 and P = 001, respectively). There were no significant differences in the expression of smooth muscle actin between the treated and nontreated groups. The syndecan-1 proteoglycan level was significantly down-regulated in the preoperative systemic therapy group (Chevallier classes P = 0.015, Sataloff classes P = 0.015). Tenascin-C was up-regulated in women with progressive disease (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION: We have observed that the stromal component of breast carcinomas following preoperative systemic therapy differs from the nontreated tumors, which can be evaluated with the analysis of the above mentioned proteins.

RESUMO

The purpose of the study was to identify breast cancer subtypes by immunohistochemistry likely to respond to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and to analyze the used chemotherapy regimen and the range of response rates. Analysis of a collected database was performed. Ninety-two patients were identified in our files who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy between 1998 and 2009. We used immunohistochemical profiles (ER, PgR, HER2, Ki-67 and p53) of NCB, FNAB and surgical breast specimens to subclassify the tumors. Pathological response rates were assessed following surgical removal of tumors by using the Chevallier classification. DFS and OS was measured in 88 cases from the date of definitive surgery to the date of last follow-up or death. Pathological complete or near-complete remission (pCR = Chevallier I and II) was observed in 13 of 92 cases (14.1%). According to the preoperative characteristics of the 13 tumors achieving pCR, 9 of the cases were triple negative, one of 13 was ER-/HER2+ and three of 13 ER+/HER2+. Twenty-four of 92 patients received taxane based neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 30 of 92 anthracycline based neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 33 of 92 taxane + anthracycline regimen and 2 of 92 CMF regimen. In the taxane treated group of patients the pCR rate was 29.1%, in the anthracycline group 6.6% and in the taxane + anthracycline treated group 12.1%. Concerning DFS, significant difference was observed between the Chevallier III and IV groups (p=0.006), and less events were observed in the pCR group (not significant). pCR was associated with significantly better OS (p=0.050). It seems that even limited, routinely used immunohistochemical profiling of tumors is able to predict the likelihood of pCR to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients with triple negative and HER2-positive cancers are likely to achieve pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
