Abstract A67: Lack of androgen receptor expression correlates with high expression of ALDH1 and poor overall and 5-year disease free survival in patients with invasive breast cancer

Conclusions:1. Group 1 phenotype correlated with better prognostic features such as well to moderately differentiated and endocrine responsive tumors.2. Group 2 phenotype correlated with poor prognostic features such as higher nuclear grade and lack of expression of hormone receptors.3. Expression of stem cell marker, ALDH1, in group 2 phenotype correlated with poor over-all and 5-year disease free survival.Citation Format: Nazia Riaz, Romana Idress, Sadia Habib, Syed Zulfiqar Naqvi, Shaista Masood Khan, Anwar Ali Siddiqui, El-Nasir Lalani.
