Mutational Status is Associated with a Higher Rate of Pathologic Complete Response After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Hormone Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer
ConclusionsThis study showed thatBRCA1 mutation carriers with HR+/HER2 − breast cancers have a higher rate of pCR than sporadic cancers and may derive greater benefit from chemotherapy. The use of NAC to downstage these patients should be considered. (Source: Annals of Surgical Oncology)

Top Breast Oncology Articles from 2021 to Inform Your Cancer Practice
AbstractBreast oncology generates extensive literature and widespread media attention every year because of the high worldwide burden of this disease and also because of the rapid pace at which treatment advances have progressed. The year 2021 was no different, and this review will summarize some of the practice-changing, practice-validating, and practice-challenging publications of that year. These studies cover a broad range of topics including multidisciplinary care with gene expression profiling; breast cancer disparities; breast cancer screening; and prophylactic mastectomy surgery.

Induction of Kallikrein-Related Peptidase 13 and TET2/3 by Anticancer Drugs and Poor Prognosis of Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma After Preoperative Treatment
ConclusionsPreoperative treatments alter KLK13 expression in ESCC. The conversion of KLK13 expression from a negative status in biopsy samples to a positive status in resected tumor samples is a predictor of poor prognosis. KLK13 status is a potential marker for decision making to avoid harmful chemotherapy/chemoradiotherapy in patients with ESCC. (Source: Annals of Surgical Oncology)

Missing Data in Patient-Reported Outcomes Research: Utilizing Multiple Imputation to Address an Unavoidable Problem
ConclusionsMI demonstrated consistent results with increasing missingness scenarios, whereas performing analysis in higher missingness scenarios without MI led to varying results. This working example emphasizes the need for missing data methodology to be considered in PRO research. (Source: Annals of Surgical Oncology)
