    Conventional tools for predicting satisfactory response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in HR+/HER2- breast cancer patients

    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.

    Prediction of nipple involvement in breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy: Should we rely on breast MRI to preserve the nipple
    (2023-01-01) UĞURLU, MUSTAFA ÜMİT; BUĞDAYCI, ONUR; AKMERCAN, AHMET; KAYA, HANDAN; AKOĞLU, HALDUN; GÜLLÜOĞLU, MAHMUT BAHADIR; UĞURLU M. Ü., BUĞDAYCI O., AKMERCAN A., KAYA H., AKIN TELLİ T., AKOĞLU H., GÜLLÜOĞLU M. B.
    Background: Indications for nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) is extending to post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) setting. Eligibility for NSM with an optimum tumor-nipple distance (TND) after NAC is unclear. We examined predictive factors for nipple tumor involvement in patients undergoing total mastectomy following NAC. Methods: Clinical and pathological data from prospectively collected medical records of women with invasive breast carcinoma, who were undergone NAC and total mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy and/or axillary lymph node dissection were analyzed. PreNAC and postNAC magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) views were examined and a cut-off TND value for predicting the negative nipple tumor status was determined. Results: Among 180 women, the final mastectomy specimen analysis revealed that 12 (7%) had nipple involvement as invasive carcinoma. Patients with nipple involvement had more postNAC multifocal/multicentric tumors (p: 0.03), larger tumors on preNAC and postNAC images (p: 0.002 and p 2mm) on preNAC and postNAC images (p < 0.001 and p: 0.01). The best likelihood ratios (LR) belonged to the postNAC positivity of the < 20 mm TND, with a + LR of 3.40, and − LR of 0.11 for nipple involvement. PreNAC positivity of the < 20 mm TND also had a similar − LR of 0.14. Conclusion: A TND-cut-off ≥ 2 cm on preNAC and postNAC MRI was shown to be highly predictive of negative nipple tumor involvement.

    The value of preoperative contrast-enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging on surgical planning in breast cancer patients
    (2012-01-01) KAYA, HANDAN; GÜLLÜOĞLU, MAHMUT BAHADIR; ÇİMŞİT, NURİ ÇAGATAY; Sever A., Kayhan A., Cimsit C., KAYA H., GÜLLÜOĞLU M. B. , Aribal E.
    Objective: Accurate detection of tumor stage and no recurrent tumor after surgery play a determinant role in surgical planning in breast cancer patients. Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is being increasingly used in preoperative planning for breast cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incremental value of preoperative breast MRI to surgical planning in women with diagnosis of breast cancer. Patients and methods: Thirty patients were enrolled in this study. Lesions were categorized according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) classification. The data were analyzed according to the benefits and detriments of MRI findings and changes in surgical planning made according to MRI results. Results: There was a high correlation between primary tumor size and breast MRI-histopathologic measurements (r:0.796, p:0.00). Fourteen additional lesions were detected in 11 patients (%36) with MRI. MRI findings were concordant with histopathologic results except in 2 patients. In 17% of total patient group, the surgical approach changed according to breast MRI findings. An additional breast-conserving surgery (BCS) was applied in 1 of 16 (%6.5) patients with synchroneus contrlateral breast cancer whom were planned to undergo mastectomy. In 4 patients (28%) with BCS decision, the surgical approach was changed to mastectomy. In one patient, the border and extansion of the primary cancer was detected more clearly by MRI and the decision of BCS was changed to mastectomy.
