Popis: The present study aimed to assess whether the methylation status of the protocadherin 17 gene (PCDH17) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tissues was associated with the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The present study included 280 patients diagnosed with TNBC using core needle biopsy. Tumor pathological diagnosis was determined via hematoxylin and eosin staining. Immunohistochemical staining was used to determine estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 and Ki-67 status. PCDH17 methylation status was analyzed using methylation-specific PCR. χ2 tests were performed to analyze differences between PCDH17 methylation status and TNBC clinicopathological features. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to analyze whether PCDH17 methylation status predicted a curative effect of NAC. The multivariate analysis included factors with P
