A novel prognostic two-gene signature for triple negative breast cancer (2020)
Journal Article
Alsaleem, M. A., Ball, G., Toss, M. S., Raafat, S., Aleskandarany, M., Joseph, C., …Rakha, E. (2020). A novel prognostic two-gene signature for triple negative breast cancer. Modern Pathology, 33, 2208–2220. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41379-020-0563-7

The absence of a robust risk stratification tool for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) underlies imprecise and non-selective treatment of these patients with cytotoxic chemotherapy. This study aimed to interrogate transcriptomes of TNBC resected s... Read More about A novel prognostic two-gene signature for triple negative breast cancer.

Combined HER3-EGFR score in triple-negative breast cancer provides prognostic and predictive significance superior to individual biomarkers (2020)
Journal Article
Janssen, E. A., Ogden, A., Bhattarai, S., Sahoo, B., Mongan, N. P., Alsaleem, M., …Aneja, R. (2020). Combined HER3-EGFR score in triple-negative breast cancer provides prognostic and predictive significance superior to individual biomarkers. Scientific Reports, 10(1), Article 3009. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-59514-1

© 2020, The Author(s). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) have been investigated as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) biomarkers. Reduced EGFR levels can be compensated by increases in HER3;...

The prognostic significance of wild type isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) in breast cancer (2019)
Journal Article
Aljohani, A. I., Toss, M. S., Kurozumi, S., Joseph, C., Aleskandarany, M. A., Miligy, I. M., …Rakha, E. (2020). The prognostic significance of wild type isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) in breast cancer. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 179(1), 79–90. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-019-05459-7

Background: Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is a prerequisite step in breast cancer (BC) metastasis. We have previously identified wild type isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) as a key putative driver of LVI. Thus, we explored the prognostic significanc...

Impact of breast cancer grade discordance on prediction of outcome (2018)
Journal Article
Rakha, E. A., Aleskandarany, M. A., Toss, M. S., Mongan, N., El-Sayed, M. E., Green, A. R., …Dalton, L. W. (in press). Impact of breast cancer grade discordance on prediction of outcome. Histopathology, https://doi.org/10.1111/his.13709

BACKGROUND: Histological grade is an independent prognostic variable in breast cancer (BC). Previous concordance studies of BC grade have reported moderate levels of agreement; a typical finding in morphological assessment of biological variables. Th...

Heterogeneity of Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer and its prognostic significance (2018)
Journal Article
Althobiti, M., Aleskandarany, M. A., Joseph, C., Toss, M., Mongan, N., Diez-Rodriguez, M., …Rakha, E. A. (2018). Heterogeneity of Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer and its prognostic significance. Histopathology, 73(6), 887-896. https://doi.org/10.1111/his.13695

Background: Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer (BC) confer prognostic and predictive information. This study aims to assess the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of TILs in BC and its relationship with immune cell subtypes. Met...
