Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To evaluate the responsiveness for endocrine therapy of breast cancer, we speculated that there are some systemic variables in intrinsic breast cancer subtype in ER positive breast tumor and growth factor signaling pathway activation. We indicated a specific pattern of DNA copy number of tumor consisted with 11 locus was correlated with poor responsiveness to neoadjuvant endocrine therapy(p=0.034). And more, among PI3K-signalung pathway, phospho-Akt either showed significant correlation with poor responsiveness by IHC investigation(p=0.005).
