Genomic landscape of breast cancer
Aleix Prat MD PhDHead of the Translational Genomics Group
Attending Physician at the Breast Cancer UnitVHIO, Barcelona, Spain
Major research advance for breast cancer by ASCO
(http://www.cancerprogress.net).
Identification of tumor individuality usingglobal gene-expression analyses
• Supervised hierarchical clustering of breast cancer data of 367 breast samples using 1,900 intrinsic genes.
• Paired tumor samples are highlighted by the red lines in the array tree, with 41 out of 43 (95%) possible pairs being paired.

• 104 TNBC with DNA somatic mutation status• Considering background mutation rates, p53 (53%), PIK3CA (10.2%), MYO3A (9.2%), RB1 (7.7%), PTEN
(7.7%), and GH1 (4.6%) showed evidence of single gene selection (q < 0.1) .
• Known drivers such as p53, PIK3CA and PTEN have among the highest clonal frequencies.

Integration of all data types
• Integration of information across 5 platforms demonstrated the existence of 4 main breast cancer classes….
• …which are highly concordant with the main intrinsic subtypes defined by gene expression-only.

Intrinsic Subtypes
Integration of all data types
• Integration of information across 5 platforms demonstrated the existence of 4 main breast cancer classes….
• …which are highly concordant with the main intrinsic subtypes defined by gene expression-only.
• 76%, 72% and 17% of Basal-like breast tumors were found more similar to SQCLC than to Luminal A, Luminal B and HER2-enriched breast tumors, respectively.

Conclusions
Conclusions• Breast cancer is an heterogeneous disease in terms of many data-types, all of which converge into 4 main intrinsic molecular subtypes (Luminal A and B, HER2-enriched and Basal-like).
Conclusions• Breast cancer is an heterogeneous disease in terms of many data-types, all of which converge into 4 main intrinsic molecular subtypes (Luminal A and B, HER2-enriched and Basal-like).
• Classification of breast cancer into 10 subtypes based on DNA CNV and GEP does not provide additional prognostic information beyond 4 subtypes.
Conclusions• Breast cancer is an heterogeneous disease in terms of many data-types, all of which converge into 4 main intrinsic molecular subtypes (Luminal A and B, HER2-enriched and Basal-like).
• Classification of breast cancer into 10 subtypes based on DNA CNV and GEP does not provide additional prognostic information beyond 4 subtypes.
• Expression signatures (gene or protein), +/- PI3KCA mutations (E545K? H1047R?), might better recapitulate the status of the PI3K/mTOR pathway.
Conclusions• Breast cancer is an heterogeneous disease in terms of many data-types, all of which converge into 4 main intrinsic molecular subtypes (Luminal A and B, HER2-enriched and Basal-like).
• Classification of breast cancer into 10 subtypes based on DNA CNV and GEP does not provide additional prognostic information beyond 4 subtypes.
• Expression signatures (gene or protein), +/- PI3KCA mutations (E545K? H1047R?), might better recapitulate the status of the PI3K/mTOR pathway.
• Among the two main Luminal subtypes, the Luminal B subtype requires additional therapies beyond endocrine therapy-only.

• Among the two main Luminal subtypes, the Luminal B subtype requires additional therapies beyond endocrine therapy-only.
• HER2+ disease is clinically and biologically heterogeneous and all the intrinsic subtypes (i.e. not just Luminal B and HER2-enriched) can be identified and dominate the molecular and clinical phenotype within HER2+ disease.

• Molecular classifications for prediction are the future, with DNA mutations, copy number, and gene/protein expression being promising methods alone or in combination.
