Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and -negative (ER) breast cancers are molecularly distinct diseases. We hypothesized that p53 mutations may lead to different transcriptional changes and carry different prognostic value in these two different types of cancers. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We developed a 39-gene p53 signature derived from 213 ER+ and a separate 30-gene signature from 38 ER- cancers with known...
