The correlation study between TOP2A gene expression in circulating tumor cells and chemotherapeutic drug resistance of patients with breast cancer.
Background: Patients with breast cancer (BC) at advanced stages have poor outcomes because of high rate of recurrence and metastasis. Biomarkers for predicting prognosis remain to be explored. This study aimed to evaluate the relationships between circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and outcomes of BC patients.
Patients and methods: A total of 50 female were enrolled in this study. Their diagnoses were determined by clinical characteristics, image data, and clinical pathology. CTC subtypes and TOP2A gene expression on CTCs were detected by CanPatrol™ technology and triple color in situ RNA hybridization (RNA-ISH), which divided into epithelial CTCs (eCTCs), mesenchymal CTCs (MCTCs), and hybrid CTCs (HCTCs) based on their surface markers. Hormone receptor, including estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) expression, was measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) method before treatment. The risk factors for predicting recurrence and metastasis were calculated by COX risk regression model. The progression-free survival (PFS) of patients was determined using Kaplan-Meier survival curve.
Results: The patients with a large tumor size (≥ 3 cm) and advanced tumor node metastasis (TNM) stages had high total CTCs (TCTCs) (P < 0.05). These patients also had high TOP2A expression level. COX risk regression analysis indicated that TOP2A expression levels in TCTCs, ER + , HER-2 + , and TNM stages were critical risk factors for recurrence and metastasis of patients (P < 0.05). The PFS of patients with ≥ 5 TCTCs, ≥ 3 HCTCs, and positive TOP2A expression in ≥ 3 TCTCs was significantly longer than that in patient with < 5 TCTCs, < 3 HCTCs, and TOP2A expression in < 3 TCTCs (P < 0.05). In contrast, the PFS of patients with positive hormone receptors (ER + , PR + , HER-2 +) also was dramatically lived longer than that in patients with negative hormone receptor expression.
Conclusions: High TCTC, HCTCs, and positive TOP2A gene expression on CTCs were critical biomarkers for predicting outcomes of BC patients. Positive hormone receptor expression in BC patients has significant favor PFS.
期刊介绍:
Breast Cancer, the official journal of the Japanese Breast Cancer Society, publishes articles that contribute to progress in the field, in basic or translational research and also in clinical research, seeking to develop a new focus and new perspectives for all who are concerned with breast cancer. The journal welcomes all original articles describing clinical and epidemiological studies and laboratory investigations regarding breast cancer and related diseases. The journal will consider five types of articles: editorials, review articles, original articles, case reports, and rapid communications. Although editorials and review articles will principally be solicited by the editors, they can also be submitted for peer review, as in the case of original articles. The journal provides the best of up-to-date information on breast cancer, presenting readers with high-impact, original work focusing on pivotal issues.
