Outline of Final Research Achievements

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a subtype of breast cancer that is estrogen receptor (ER)-negative, progesterone receptor (PR)-negative, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, has a poor prognosis. Recent research indicates that TNBC can be categorized into seven specific subcategories based on genetic expression profiles. In this study, we showed the possibility of a new therapeutic strategy for TNBC.
