Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The heterogeneity of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) confers variable response to chemotherapy that results in poor outcome and relapse. Due to lack of targeted therapy, there is a need to provide molecular classification of TNBC and identify probable therapeutic targets. METHODS: We classified TNBC into surrogate molecular subtypes by immunohistochemistry and evaluated hotspot mutations (N = 80) in...
