IRX4204 Induces Senescence and Cell Death in HER2-positive Breast Cancer and Synergizes with Anti-HER2 Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: These findings identify HER2 as a biomarker for IRX4204 treatment response and demonstrate a novel use of RXR agonists to synergize with current anti-HER2 therapies. Furthermore, our results suggest that RXR agonists can be useful for the treatment of anti-HER2 resistant and metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer.PMID:38578278 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-3839 (Source: Clinical Breast Cancer)

PARP Inhibitor for Neoadjuvant Therapy in HER2-Negative Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Efficacy and Safety
Clin Breast Cancer. 2024 Mar 2:S1526-8209(24)00059-4. doi: 10.1016/j.clbc.2024.02.020. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPoly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) is approved for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with BRCA1/2 mutation. In recent years, many studies have explored the application of PARPi in neoadjuvant therapy, but failed to reach a unified conclusion. PubMed, Clinicaltrials.gov, Cochrane CENTRAL, Embase, and key oncological meetings for trials were searched for studies reporting neoadjuvant regimens with PARPi in HER2-negative breast cancer. Pathological complete response (pCR), residual cancer burden (R...

Biochemical Significance of miR-155 and miR-375 as Diagnostic Biomarkers and Their Correlation with the NF-kappabeta/TNF-alpha Axis in Breast Cancer
This study aimed to investigate serum expression folds of miR-155 and miR-375 and their correlations with NF-κβ and TNF-α in breast cancer patients. The current study was conducted on 183 unrelated female participants. Serum levels of free T3 and T4, as well as expression folds of miR-155 and miR-375, were significantly higher in patients with fibroadenoma and breast cancer, despite TSH being significantly lower. Additionally, the signaling of TNF-alpha and NF-κβ were found to be significantly upregulated in the serum of patients with breast cancer. Up-regulation of miR-155 and miR-375 expression may be diagnostic bio...

Circulating miRNA-21 Levels in Breast Cancer Patients Before and After Chemotherapy and Its Association with Clinical Improvement
Indian J Clin Biochem. 2024 Apr;39(2):214-220. doi: 10.1007/s12291-023-01129-0. Epub 2023 Mar 30.ABSTRACTBreast cancer is the most frequent type of cancer in women, many patients experience recurrences and metastasis. miR-21 (microRNA-21) as biomarker is under investigation for breast cancer. At present, there is very limited information available regarding effect of chemotherapy on miR-21 expression in breast cancer and its correlation with the clinical improvement. Hence, this study was planned to evaluate the effect of chemotherapy on miR-21 in metastatic breast cancer and its relationship with the clinical outcome. Fem...

Global cancer statistics 2022: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries
This article presents global cancer statistics by world region for the year 2022 based on updated estimates from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). There were close to 20 million new cases of cancer in the year 2022 (including nonmelanoma skin cancers [NMSCs]) alongside 9.7 million deaths from cancer (including NMSC). The estimates suggest that approximately one in five men or women develop cancer in a lifetime, whereas around one in nine men and one in 12 women die from it. Lung cancer was the most frequently diagnosed cancer in 2022, responsible for almost 2.5 million new cases, or one in eight cance...
