Abstract Background: Programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is of great interest in breast cancer (BC). PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx (SK006) is an approved companion diagnostic assay for patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Multiple sub-types of BC are identified by the binary expression status (positive/negative) of human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) and the hormone receptors (HRs) estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR). The ability of the assay to reliably identify PD-L1 expression in TNBC (ER-/PR-/HER2-) tissues was previously demonstrated. However, the sensitivi

Abstract Background Breast-conserving surgery is a critical step in treatment with the goal of removing all cancer cells while minimizing the removal of healthy tissue. 15% to 25% of lumpectomy patients have positive margins and require a second surgery to achieve negative margins and reduce the risk of local recurrences. These positive margins are poorly predictive (35% PPV) of cancer left in the cavity, so most second surgeries find no residual cancer. Better detection tools are needed to guide in real-time the removal of cancer missed during the initial lumpectomy to reduce the number of se

For example, contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) has been shown to reduce the risk of new breast primaries without a demonstrated survival benefit.
