Molecular subtypes
Make a clinic decision
Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and c-ERBB2 (HER2/neu) are therapeutically and prognostically important markers in the management of breast carcinoma.
About 60% to 70% of breast carcinomas express ER protein, and these tumors are associated with better prognosis.
Thike AA, Chng MJ, Chong SF, et al. Pathology. 2001;33:21-25.
ER status is important in predicting the response to adjuvant tamoxifen (hormonal) therapy. PR is a surrogate marker of functional ER because PR is an estrogen-regulated gene.
More than half of ER+ tumors express PR. Hence, simultaneous analysis of ER and PR gives more information regarding likely hormonal response.
ER, PR and HER2 are indipendent prognostic and predictive biomarkers

Hormone therapy remains the mainstay for hormone receptor–positive breast cancer. The decision for hormone treatment has traditionally relied on assessment of ER and PR status of primary tumors, with the response generally related directly to ER and PR content.
TAILORING OF MEDICAL THERAPY
The efficacy of trastuzumab is highly dependent on the c-ERBB2 status of the tumor and in the metastatic breast cancers that overexpress c-ERBB2 has been proven.
Studies specifically relating receptor status of primary tumors with local recurrences are also few.
TAILORING OF LOCOREGIONAL TREATMENT
Few published reports regarding the comparison of c-ERBB2 status between the primary and metastatic or locally recurrent sites. Am J Clin Pathol 2010;133:416-429
??
Few studies have examined these biomarkers as predictors of locoregional recurrence (LRR)
To identify patients who had an increased risk of LRR and therefore might benefit from adjuvant systemic treatment or more aggressive local treatment uniform evaluation of ER, PR, and HER2 expression.
Whole breast 50 Gy in 25 fractions using medial and lateral tangent fields, followed by a tumor bed boost of 10 Gy in 5 fractions.
The 8-year LRR rate was greater in patients with ER-negative disease, PR-negative disease, and HER2-positive (17.5% vs. 3.9%, p = .009).
Tumors ER or PR positive were categorized as HR positive. Tumors that were both ER and PR negative were categorized as HR negative resulting in four tumor subtypes: HR+HER2, HR+HER2+, HRHER2+, and HRHER2.
HER2-positive breast cancer and ER/PR-negative disease independently predicted for LRR.
Additionally, close/positive margins (with close defined as <2 mm) and lobular histologic features continued to predict for LRR.
Patients who have HER2-positive tumors 1 cm or smaller have a high risk of relapse and consequently a shorter recurrence-free survival time.
HER2 STATUS
SUBTYPES
Was investigated the potential association between biological subtype and increased risk of LRR compared with conventional prognostic factors.
Patients baseline characteristics stratified by biological subtype (4 subgroups HR±/HER2±).
On multivariate analysis HR-/HER2+ and LN (>1) were found indipendent prognostic factors with increased risk of LRR after BCT.
For the subgroups radical mastectomy on multivariate analysis triple negative and LN (>1) were found prognostic factors.
RT to the breast (42.5–50 Gy in 16–25 fractions) was offered to all patients after segmental resection; regional LN irradiation being offered if 4 LN-positive.
Post-mastectomy chest wall and regional LN irradiation (45–50 Gy in 20–25 fractions) if they had LN positive or T3.
Triple negative, Rec-/HER2+, Rec+/HER2+ are an increased risk of LRR after radical mastectomy.
No difference of LRFS between HER2+ and HER2-
MILESTONES
• HER2-positivity predicts for recurrence, with an increased risk of LRR.
• These issues seem to be confirmed in patients HER2+ surgically treated or conservatively than with mastectomy.
• Given the risk of relapse, HER2-positive patients might benefit from chemotherapy, anti-HER2 therapy, or more aggressive locoregional therapy, even in very early-stage disease.
Which is the more aggressive loco regional treatment that should be considered?
WHICH IS THE MORE AGGRESSIVE LOCOREGIONAL TREATMENT THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED?
- BOOST: increase the dose to the tumor bed;
- WHOLE BREAST: increase the dose to the whole breast;
- NODAL IRRADIATION: irradiation of the clavicularregion even if less than 4 lymph nodes involved.
- RT associated to adjuvant trastuzumab.

Future prospective studies, including clinical trials, are needed to fully
determine the utility of these biomarkers in guiding treatment decisions in
this patient population.
Several forthcoming clinical trials have begun to address medical and loco
regional therapy basing on molecular characteristics.
These prospective clinical trials, and other future trials, might provide
insight as to whether combining radiotherapy with HER2-directed therapies.
