    Prognostic Role of Immune Markers in Triple Negative Breast Carcinoma
    (SPRINGER, 2020) KAYA, HANDAN; Sahin Ozkan, Hulya; Ugurlu, Mustafa Umit; Yumuk, Perran Fulden; Kaya, Handan
    Tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is a significant prognostic parameter for triple negative breast carcinomas (TNBC) due to being a target for immunotherapeutic agents and its essential role during the cancer immunoediting process. In this study, CD8, FOXP3, CD163, PD-L1/SP142 and PD-L1/SP263 antibodies were examined in a sample of 51 TNBC cases. Patients who received neoadjuvant therapy were excluded. CD8, FOXP3 and CD163 antibodies were evaluated separately in intratumoral area (ITA) and tumor stroma (TS). PD-L1 status was also examined in tumor cells (TC) and immune cells (IC) using both SP142 and SP263 antibodies. In multivariate Cox regressions, the only antibody that was found to be significantly associated with survival was SP142. SP142-positivity in TC and IC was related to increased overall survival. Higher CD163 expression in ITA and SP263-positivity in IC were associated with younger age. Lymphatic/angioinvasion was more frequent in cases with negative/low CD8 and FOXP3 expressions. Moreover, metastatic axillary lymph node(s) was associated with negative/low FOXP3 expression in TS. CD8, FOXP3, CD163, SP142 and SP263 expressions were positively correlated with each other, except a mild discordance caused by CD163 in ITA. Although PD-L1 status with both SP142 and SP263 antibodies were concordant in the majority of cases, 33.3% and 13.7% of the cases showed SP142-negative/SP263-positive pattern in TC and IC respectively. In conclusion, we suggest that composition, density and localization of the immune cells and the check point molecules are important prognostic parameters in TNBC. Immunohistochemistry can be used as an accessible and less expensive tool to demonstrate TIME.

    Predictive value of 18F-FDG PET/CT indices on extensive residual cancer burden in breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy [Valor predictivo de los índices 18F-FDG PET/TC sobre la carga tumoral residual en pacientes con cáncer de mama extenso tratadas con quimioterapia neoadyuvante]
    (Ediciones Doyma, S.L., 2021) KAYA, HANDAN; Başoğlu T., Özgüven S., Şahin Özkan H., Çınar M., Köstek O., Can Demircan N., Arıkan R., Akın Telli T., Ercelep Ö., Kaya H., Öneş T., Yusuf Erdil T., Ümit Uğurlu M., Dane F., Fulden Yumuk P.
    Aim: We investigated the correlation between 18F-FDG PET/CT indices and pathological response in breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) which was scored with Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) system after surgery. Our aim is to detect extensive residual cancer burden earlier by using PET/CT indices. Methods: Characteristics of patients were retrieved retrospectively. Baseline maximum Standart Uptake Value (SUVmax), Metabolic Tumor Volume (MTV) and Total Lesion Glycolysis (TLG) indices and reduction rate (RR) between baseline and interim evaluation were calculated with FDG PET/CT scan. All patients were evaluated according to RCB scores after surgery. Pathological responses and PET/CT measurement results were analyzed with demographic and clinical parameters. Results: A total of 95 patients were included in the study. According to pathological responses, the distribution of RCB-0, -1, -2, -3 were 13 (13.7%), 11 (11.6%), 30 (31.6%), 41 (43.2%), respectively. Disease-free survival was significantly lower in the RCB-3 group compared to the pathological responder group (P=.01). According to multivariate analysis, RR of SUVmax was determined as an independent variable predicting extensive residual cancer burden with an optimal cut-off value of 86% (P<.05). Conclusions: We determined RR of SUVmax as an independent factor for predicting extensive residual tumor burden. We believe that RR of SUVmax is sufficient to predict pathological response in daily practice. In addition, MTV and TLG measurements do not contribute additionally to SUVmax alone and can cause unnecessary labor loss. © 2021

    Conventional tools for predicting satisfactory response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in HR+/HER2- breast cancer patients
    (2023-10-01) GÜLLÜOĞLU, MAHMUT BAHADIR; EREN, ÖZGÜR CAN; KAYA, HANDAN; UĞURLU, MUSTAFA ÜMİT; Oprea A. L., GÜLLÜOĞLU M. B., Aytin Y. E., EREN Ö. C., Aral C., Szekely T. B., TAŞTEKİN E., KAYA H., BADEMLER S., Karanllk H., et al.
    Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the role of Magee Equation 3 (MagEq3), IHC4 score, and HER2-low status in predicting \"satisfactory response (SR)\"to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in HR+/HER2- breast cancer (BC) patients. Methods: In a retrospective study, female patients of any age with T1-4, N0-2, M0 HR+/HER2- BC who received NAC and underwent adequate locoregional surgical treatment were included. Patients were grouped according to 2 outcomes: (a) overall response to NAC in breast and axilla by using residual cancer burden (RCB) criteria and (b) axillary downstaging after NAC by using N staging. 2 cohorts for overall response were overall SR (RCB 0-1) and no SR (RCB 2-3). On the other hand, for axillary downstaging, 2 cohorts constituted from axillary SR (ypN0 and ypN0i+) and no SR (ypNmic-N3). MagEq3 and IHC4 scores were calculated from their pathological tumor slides in each patient. HER2 status was categorized as either \"no\"or \"low.\"In addition, patient age, family history, tumor histology, stage at admission, and Ki-67 status were compared between cohorts according to predefined outcomes. Results: In a total of 230 BC patients, 228 patients were included to compare according to their RCB levels. The mean age of patients with overall SR was significantly lower than those without. Patients with high Ki-67 expression, high (>30) MagEq3 score, high ICH4 quartile, and HER2-low status had significantly more overall SR. On the other hand, only patients with high Ki-67 expression had significantly more axillary SR. MagEq3 score levels, ICH4 quartiles, and HER2 status were similar between patients with axillary SR and not. Conclusion: MagEq3 and IHC4 tools seemed to be useful to predict those HR+/HER2- BC patients who are most likely to get benefit from NAC. But, only high Ki-67 expression level significantly predicted satisfactory axillary downstaging in HR+/HER2- BC patients.

    The value of MRI contrast enhancement in biopsy decision of suspicious mammographic microcalcifications: a prospective multicenter study
    (SPRINGER, 2021) KAYA, HANDAN; Taskin, Fusun; Kalayci, Cem Burak; Tuncbilek, Nermin; Soydemir, Efe; Kurt, Nazmi; Kaya, Handan; Aribal, Erkin
    Objectives To investigate the inclusion of breast MRI in radiological assessment of suspicious, isolated microcalcifications detected with mammography. Methods In this prospective, multicenter study, cases with isolated microcalcifications in screening mammography were examined with dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) before biopsy, and contrast enhancement of the relevant calcification localization was accepted as a positive finding on MRI. Six experienced breast radiologists evaluated the images and performed the biopsies. Imaging findings and histopathological results were recorded. Sensitivity, specificity, NPV, and PPV of breast MRI were calculated and compared with histopathological findings. Results Suspicious microcalcifications, which were detected by screening mammograms of 444 women, were evaluated. Of these, 276 (62.2%) were diagnosed as benign and 168 (37.8%) as malignant. Contrast enhancement was present in microcalcification localization in 325 (73.2%) of the cases. DCE-MRI was positive in all 102 invasive carcinomas and in 58 (87.9%) of 66 DCIS cases. MRI resulted in false negatives in eight DCIS cases; one was high grade and the other seven were low-to-medium grade. The false-negative rate of DCE-MRI was 4.76%. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV for DCE-MRI for mammography-detected suspicious microcalcifications were 95.2%, 40.2%, 49.2%, and 93.3%, respectively. Conclusions In this study, all invasive cancers and all DCIS except eight cases (12.1%) were detected with DCE-MRI. DCE-MRI can be used in the decision-making algorithm to decrease the number of biopsies in mammography-detected suspicious calcifications, with a tradeoff for overlooking a small number of DCIS cases that are of low-to-medium grade.

    Breast lesions with myoepithelial phenotype
    (2023-01-01) KAYA, HANDAN; Foschini M. P., Nishimura R., Fabbri V. P., Varga Z., KAYA H., Cserni G.
    © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Myoepithelial cells (MECs) constitute a continuous layer of cells surrounding the breast glands, localised between the epithelial cells (ECs) and the basal membrane. MECs play important roles in normal mammary gland as they produce basal membrane and stimulate secretion. During neoplastic transformation, MECs act as a barrier preventing stromal invasion. MECs themselves can undergo a great variety of changes, ranging from hyperplastic to metaplastic, to neoplastic, and giving rise to a wide spectrum of morphological pictures sometimes difficult to interpret on routine diagnoses. Several benign and malignant breast tumours can present features of MECs differentiation. As these latter tumours are quite infrequent, the purpose of the present study is to offer a review of the morphological spectrum of MECs lesions, with correlations to prognosis.
