Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis is a prognostic report by the Japanese Breast Cancer Society on breast cancer extracted from the National Clinical Database-Breast Cancer Registry of Japan. Here, we present a summary of 457,878 breast cancer cases registered between 2004 and 2016. The median follow-up duration was 5.6 years. The median age at the start of treatment was 59 years (5-95%: 38-82 years) and increased from 57 years between 2004 and 2008 to 60 years between 2013 and 2016. The proportion of patients with Stage 0-II disease increased from 74.5% to 78.3%....

Advances in the study of autophagy in breast cancer
Breast Cancer. 2024 Feb 5. doi: 10.1007/s12282-023-01541-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBreast cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumor among women, with a high incidence and mortality rate all year round, which seriously affects women's health. Autophagy, a well-conserved cellular process inherent in eukaryotic organisms, plays a pivotal role in degrading damaged proteins and organelles, recycling their breakdown products to aid cells in navigating stress and gradually restoring homeostatic equilibrium. Recent studies have unveiled the intricate connection between autophagy and breast cancer. Autophagy is a double-e...

Endosomal protein expression of γ1-adaptin is associated with tumor growth activity and relapse-free survival in breast cancer
CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the endosomal expression of γ1-adaptin is positively correlated with breast cancer malignancy and could be a novel prognostic marker.PMID:38265632 | DOI:10.1007/s12282-023-01539-1 (Source: Breast Cancer)

Clinicopathological differences and survival benefit in ER+/PR+/HER2+ vs ER+/PR-/HER2+ breast cancer subtypes
CONCLUSIONS: HER2-positive breast cancers with different HR statuses exhibit distinct clinicopathological features and survival outcomes. Patients in the ER+/PR+/HER2+ group generally experience better survival, particularly in postmenopausal and pN0 stage patients. Treatment strategies should consider HR status and specific modalities for better personalized management.PMID:38231460 | DOI:10.1007/s12282-023-01538-2 (Source: Breast Cancer)

2020 Annual Report of National Clinical Database-Breast Cancer Registry: 10-year mortality of elderly breast cancer patients in Japan
Breast Cancer. 2024 Jan 5. doi: 10.1007/s12282-023-01532-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Japanese Breast Cancer Society initiated the breast cancer registry in 1975, which transitioned to the National Clinical Database-Breast Cancer Registry in 2012. This annual report presents data from 2020 and analyzes the ten-year mortality rates for those aged 65 and older. We analyzed data from 93,784 breast cancer (BC) cases registered in 2020 and assessed 10-year mortality rates for 36,279 elderly patients diagnosed between 2008 and 2012. In 2020, 99.4% of BC cases were females with a median age of 61. Most (65%) were diagnose...

The influence of chronic renal insufficiency on multi-therapeutic modalities for breast cancer: a single-center experience
CONCLUSIONS: Breast cancer patients with late-stage CKD may receive insufficient therapeutic modalities. Although the recurrence-free survival rate did not differ significantly by the status of CKD, patients with breast cancer and late-stage CKD had shorter overall survival time but a lower breast cancer-related mortality rate, indicated that the mortality was related to underlying disease.PMID:38150135 | DOI:10.1007/s12282-023-01530-w (Source: Breast Cancer)
