| Popis: | BackgroundKi67 is a biomarker of proliferation to be used in immunohistochemistry (IHC)-based surrogate assay to determine the necessity of cytotoxic therapy for Luminal-like breast cancer patients. cyclinD1 is another frequently used biomarker of proliferation. A retrospective study was performed here to investigate if these two biomarkers may be combined to improve the prognosis of Luminal-like patients.MethodsBoth Ki67 and cyclinD1 protein levels were measured absolutely and quantitatively using Quantitative Dot Blot method in 143 Luminal-like specimens. Optimized cutoffs for these two biomarkers were developed to evaluate their prognostic roles using Kaplan–Meier overall survival (OS) analysis.ResultscyclinD1 was found as an independent prognostic factor from Ki67 in univariate and multivariate OS analyses. At optimized cutoffs (cyclinD1 at 0.44 μmol/g and Ki67 at 2.31 nmol/g), the subgroup with both biomarkers below the cutoffs (n = 65) had 10-year survival probability at 90% in comparison to those with both biomarkers above the cutoffs (n = 18) with 8-year survival probability at 26% (log-rank test, p |
