摘要

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive and heterogeneous disease that remains challenging to target with traditional therapies and to predict risk. We provide a comprehensive characterization of 238 stage II-III TNBC tumors with paired RNA and DNA sequencing data from the CALGB 40603 (Alliance) clinical trial, along with 448 stage II-III TNBC tumors with paired RNA and DNA data from three additional datasets. We identify DNA mutations associated with RNA-based subtypes, specific TP53 missense mutations compatible with potential neoantigen activity, and a consistently highly altered copy number landscape. We train exploratory multi-modal elastic net models of TNBC patient overall survival to determine the added impact of DNA-based features to RNA and clinical features. We find that mutations and copy number show little to no prognostic value, while RNA expression features, including signatures of T cell and B cell activity, along with stage, improve stratification of TNBC survival risk.
