Description

Laura Rosenberger and co-authors profile the genomes of malignant phyllodes tumors in a 2024 study. These rare breast cancers have no known effective drug therapy, and spread brings a grim outlook. The team gathered sequenced cases from a certified clinical lab, where tumors were profiled on a panel of hundreds of genes, plus immune therapy biomarkers.

Of well over one hundred cases, most were local or locally recurrent and about a third had spread. Mutation burden was low on median, with few high burden cases, and about one in five tumors showed a key immune marker. The most altered gene was a promoter tied to cell immortality, altered in most cases. The landscape reveals several targetable openings.
