Abstract
Understanding how standard-of-care drug treatments affect tumor intrinsic biology and microenvironment is critical for elucidating drug resistance mechanisms and developing better combination therapies as well as new therapies. To characterize the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on the genome, transcriptome and tumor infiltrating leukocytes (TILs), we have conducted whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing of a large longitudinal breast cancer cohort consisting of 146 cases and 281 paired tumor samples. In total, 52 (38%) patients achieved pathologic complete response (pCR) while 85 patients (62%) had residual disease with standard chemotherapy regimen. Tumor biopsies were collected for each patient at three time points – pre-treatment, three weeks after the first cycle of anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) and at the time of surgery after 3 more cycles of AC followed by 4 cycles of taxane or taxane plus Herceptin in case of HER2+ subtype. We detected 5,955 protein-altering somatic mutations affecting 4,414 genes in pretreatment samples and 502 acquired mutations in surgery samples affecting 477 genes including 19recurrently mutated genes such as TP53 and NOTCH1. Across all subtypes, 4,346 genes were differentially expressed (DE) following NAC treatment and significantly enriched in pathways such as cell cycle, ER signaling, PI3K/mTOR, immune and metabolism. Expression-based virtual microdissection analysis indicated that NAC treatment induced an increase in the fractions of stromal and adjacent normal tissue compartment, consistent with observed reduction in tumor cellularity. To assess the NAC induced changes in the molecular landscape of these tumors, we compared molecular features including gene expression signatures, mutation prevalence and copy number alteration between three time points while adjusting for confounding effects of molecular subtype and tumor cellularity. We found that NAC induced dynamic changes in gene expression signatures associated with proliferation and immunomodulatory treatment response. We further validated the observed pattern of change in TILs through histopathology and digital imaging analyses. In pretreatment tumors, 116 genes were DE between patients with pCR vs. those with residual disease with significant enrichment in immune/inflammatory pathways. Further, pre-treatment TIL levels were found to be significantly associated with pCR, echoing previous reports in breast cancers that implicated anti-tumor immunity in mediating the efficacy of chemotherapies. Our analyses also revealed associations between NAC response and baseline genomic attributes such as genomic alterations that affect DNA damage repair pathways. Taken together, these results suggest that NAC induced a multitude of changes on the genomic landscape and immune microenvironment of breast cancers, some of which point to combination strategies with immunomodulatory therapies and therapies that target DNA damage repair.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction : A phase II, multicenter, randomized clinical trial of the comparison between eribulin plus gemcitabine (EG) and paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (PG) as first-line chemotherapy for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) found EG was less neurotoxic, but had similar efficacy of PG. In this study, we performed exploratory biomarker analysis of the impact of genetic alterations on the efficacy according to EG and PG chemotherapy.
Methods : This biomarker study was conducted using tumor samples from 40patients. When tissue collection was possible after disease progression, we performed paired sample analysis. Tumor DNA and RNA were extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. To perform targeted deep sequencing, we used CancerScanTM, a 375 cancer gene panel. And we performed an nCounter expression assay for gene expression analysis using 730 PanCancer panel and 730 Immune panel.
Results: In total, we obtained 44 tissue samples from 40 patients. Twenty two patients were assigned in EG arm and 18 patients were in PG arm. Thirty-eight were at baseline and six after disease progression. Gene expression assay were performed in 44 tissue samples but only 31 samples were possible to be targeted deep sequencing.
We performed differently expressed gene(DEG) analysis for detecting the association between level of gene expression and disease progression. In this analysis, high expression of CCNE1, TGFB4 and BAMBI and low expression of DDB2, CD14 and SHC3 were associated with disease progression among 730 PanCancer panel genes (p<0.05, respectively). In terms of immune panel genes, most of immune related genes were highly expressed in a group without disease progression compared with that with disease progression. Only 2 genes, C8G and CD24 were highly expressed in a group with disease progression. Paired sample analysis showed that expression levels of THBS4 and CD27 decreased after disease progression while those of CCNE2 and FGFR4 increased.
In targeted deep sequencing, FAT3 (42.3%) was most frequently mutated gene followed by PKHD1, PIK3CA and TP53. Among mutated genes, EWSR1 mutation and upstream mutation of ETV1 were associated with disease progression, respectively (p<0.05, respectively). In mutation signature analysis, signature 1 (S, age related), S3(homologous recombination deficiency, HRD), S6 (mismatch repair, MMR), S20(MMR) and S21(microsatellite instability, MSI) were enriched in this population. Mutation signature 3 related to short disease free survival (p=0.0026).
Conclusion: In gene expression analysis, high expression of TGF-B signaling pathway related genes was associated with disease progression while high expression of immune related genes were related to prolonged disease free survival. In mutation analysis, EWSR1 and ETV1 mutations indicated short disease free interval and HRD mutation signature was also related to poor prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and objectives : Since the results of the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group Z0011 published, the criteria for applying axillary lymph node (ALN) dissection was relaxed among early breast cancer patients who were scheduled for breast conserving surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy therapy, and adjuvant radiation therapy. SLNB criteria may be established if pathologic nodal status can be predicted. The aim of this study was to develop a nomogram for preoperative prediction of axillary node metastasis.
Methods: The records of 1650 patients with T1, T2 primary invasive breast cancer who were treated between January 2013 and September 2016 were selected from the medical database of Yonsei University (Seoul, South Korea). Those whom a preoperative diagnosis of axillary node metastases were excluded. Two nomogram that predicted three or more axillary metastasis and one or more axillary metastasis were developed using a binary logistic regression model with a training cohort. Internal validation was carried out adopting bootstrap method by validation cohort 500 times resampling.
Result: A total of 82 (4.8%) patients had three or more ALNs metastasis. Three hundred seventy five (17.4%) patients had one or more ALNs metastasis. Axillary metastasis was associated with Preoperative ALN suspicious image findings, clinical tumor size, Number of neoplastic foci, estrogen receptor status, Ki-67 expression, tumor marker. The nomogram was developed based on the clinical and statistically significant predictors. It had good discrimination performance (AUC 0.79, 95% CI, 0.73–0.85), (AUC 0.71, 95% CI, 0.67–0.74) and calibration fit.
Conclusion:Our nomogram might help predict the ALN metastasis in breast cancer patients. Patients with a low probability of ALN metastasis could be spared SLNB.

Abstract
Abstract
Endoscopic breast surgery was expected to be an adequate technique to complete cancer clearance and preservation of the patient's body image. However, this technique has limitations including incomplete internal movements and unstable vision of a two dimensional camera due to inflexible endoscopic instruments especially during the skin flap formation. High resolution, ten-fold image magnification, and three-dimensional optics of robotic surgery help overcome the limitations of endoscopic surgery, and thus robotic surgery has been adopted in a wide range of intracorporeal procedures including breast surgery. However, few studies have evaluated feasibility and safety of robotic assisted nipple sparing mastectomy (RANSM) and immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) for the treatment of breast cancer. There were not any investigation to assess patients' satisfaction of cosmetic effect after performing RANSM and IBR. This study is aim to verify the feasibility and the safety of RANSM and IBR and to analyze cosmetic effect of the procedure and satisfaction of patients. The target number of enrollments is 15 patients. Patients who are diagnosed with early breast cancer or BRCA 1/2 mutation carriers are enrolled. Female patients over 20 years old who are candidates to preserve nipple areolar complex and considered to perform reconstruction with implants are prospectively collected. Written informed consents are mandatory. Patients who are considered the high possibility of postoperative radiation therapy according to preoperative stage are not included in this study. We exclude patients who want to undergo other methods of breast reconstruction than breast reconstruction with implants. Patients will undergo RANSM and IBR through a single axillary skin incision simultaneously. Regular follow-up at 1 month and 6 months after RANSM and IBR is scheduled to record recovery of a patient, amount of a drain, date of drain removal, and postoperative complications. Patient satisfaction questionnaire will be completed on the last follow-up day. To evaluate the safety of robotic assisted surgery, the oncologic safety (margin status of nipple areolar complex), postoperative recovery of a patient, and postoperative complications are investigated. We compare preoperative and postoperative 6 month photographs of patients and estimate the surgical outcome by objective indicators to evaluate the cosmetic grading by plastic surgeons. Patients' satisfaction are assessed by questionnaire (BREAST-Q) at the 6-month visit.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the incidence of immediate hypersensitivity reaction (HSR) caused by different types of low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) and cumulative exposure to LOCM. METHODS This cohort study included all consecutive patients who underwent LOCM-enhanced computed tomography from 2012 through 2014. We assessed 5 LOCM (iobitridol, iohexol, iomeprol, iopamidol, and iopromide). All patients were monitored for adverse events, and new symptoms and signs were recorded in real time using the Contrast Safety Monitoring and Management System (CoSM2oS). RESULTS The overall incidence of immediate HSR to LOCM was 0.97% (2004 events resulting from 205 726 exposures). Incidence differed significantly depending on whether the patient had a previous history of HSR to LOCM (0.80% in patients with no history and 16.99% in patients with a positive history of HSR to LOCM, P=.001). The incidence of HSR to individual LOCM ranged from 0.72% (iohexol) to 1.34% (iomeprol), although there were no significant differences across the 5 LOCM. A longitudinal analysis demonstrated that the incidence of HSR increased gradually with more frequent previous exposure to LOCM (HR=2.006 [95%CI, 1.517-2.653], P<.001). However, this cumulative increase in risk was observed in patients who had experienced HSR to LOCM, but not in those who had not. CONCLUSION The incidence of HSR did not differ significantly across the 5 LOCM assessed in the study. Repeated exposure to LOCM did not increase the risk of HSR among patients who had never experienced HSR to LOCM.

Abstract
The RENO experiment reports more precisely measured values of θ_{13} and |Δm_{ee}^{2}| using ∼2200 live days of data. The amplitude and frequency of reactor electron antineutrino (ν[over ¯]_{e}) oscillation are measured by comparing the prompt signal spectra obtained from two identical near and far detectors. In the period between August 2011 and February 2018, the far (near) detector observed 103 212 (850 666) ν[over ¯]_{e} candidate events with a background fraction of 4.8% (2.0%). A clear energy and baseline dependent disappearance of reactor ν[over ¯]_{e} is observed in the deficit of the measured number of ν[over ¯]_{e}. Based on the measured far-to-near ratio of prompt spectra, we obtain sin^{2}2θ_{13}=0.0896±0.0048(stat)±0.0047(syst) and |Δm_{ee}^{2}|=[2.68±0.12(stat)±0.07(syst)]×10^{-3} eV^{2}.

Abstract
Trimodality therapy with neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by surgery has emerged as the standard of care for the treatment of locally advanced esophageal cancer. Yet, there is considerable variation in survival within this population. We sought to analyze factors associated with survival after trimodality therapy in esophageal adenocarcinoma. We identified 4,679 patients from the National Cancer Database (NCDB) of the American College of Surgeons who received chemotherapy and radiation prior to surgery for esophageal adenocarcinoma from 2006 to 2013. We excluded patients with stage IV disease and unknown pathological nodal status. We performed regression analyses using a Cox proportional hazards model to identify independent predictors of overall survival. On multivariate analysis, pathologic characteristics associated with decreased overall survival included stage, lymphovascular invasion, and positive surgical margins. Insurance status, age, and comorbidity index were also associated with decreased survival. We found that pathologically node-positive patients who received additional adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with improved survival. Compared to private insurance, Medicaid (HR 1.45, CI 1.22-1.73, P < 0.0001), Medicare (HR 1.17, CI 1.04-1.31, P = 0.0082), or having no insurance (HR 1.50, CI 1.17-1.92, P = 0.0012) were all negative predictors of overall survival. In patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma who have undergone trimodality therapy, a number of different factors are associated with overall survival. In particular, socioeconomic factors relating to access to care are independent predictors of survival. Despite receiving the standard of care, treatment disparities persist in this population of patients.

Abstract
A search for boosted dark matter using 161.9 kt yr of Super-Kamiokande IV data is presented. We search for an excess of elastically scattered electrons above the atmospheric neutrino background, with a visible energy between 100 MeV and 1 TeV, pointing back to the Galactic center or the Sun. No such excess is observed. Limits on boosted dark matter event rates in multiple angular cones around the Galactic center and Sun are calculated. Limits are also calculated for a baseline model of boosted dark matter produced from cold dark matter annihilation or decay. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter from the Galactic center or the Sun interacting in a terrestrial detector.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of a fast gas chromatography (GC) e-nose for freshness discrimination and for prediction of storage time as well as sensory and internal quality changes during storage of hen eggs. All samples were obtained from the same egg production farm and stored at 20 °C for 20 d. Egg sampling was conducted every 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, and 20 d. During each sampling time, 4 egg cartons (each containing 10 eggs) were randomly selected: one carton for Haugh units, one carton for sensory evaluation and 2 cartons for the e-nose experiment. The e-nose study included 2 independent test sets; calibration (35 samples) and validation (28 samples). Every sampling time, 5 replicates were prepared from one egg carton for calibration samples and 4 replicates were prepared from the remaining egg carton for validation samples. Sensors (peaks) were selected prior to multivariate chemometric analysis; qualitative sensors for principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant factor analysis (DFA) and quantitative sensors for partial least square (PLS) modeling. PCA and DFA confirmed the difference in volatile profiles of egg samples from 7 different storage times accounting for a total variance of 95.7% and 93.71%, respectively. Models for predicting storage time, Haugh units, odor score, and overall acceptability score from e-nose data were developed using calibration samples by PLS regression. The results showed that these quality indices were well predicted from the e- nose signals, with correlation coefficients of R2 = 0.9441, R2 = 0.9511, R2 = 0.9725, and R2 = 0.9530 and with training errors of 0.887, 1.24, 0.626, and 0.629, respectively. As a result of ANOVA, most of the PLS model results were not significantly (P > 0.05) different from the corresponding reference values. These results proved that the fast GC electronic nose has the potential to assess egg freshness and feasibility to predict multiple egg freshness indices during its circulation in the supply chain.

Six experiments (4 constant temperatures and 2 variable temperatures) were carried out on hen eggs for a total period of 10, 21, 26, 13, and 105 d at storage temperatures of 30, 20, 20 to 10, 30 to 10, and 5 and 10°C, to observe trends in the relative weight loss (RWL), Haugh unit (HU), yolk index (YI), albumin index (AI), yolk pH, and albumin pH. The results showed that there was an increasing trend in the RWL and a decreasing trend in the YI, AI, and HU for all temperature conditions. The changes in the yolk and albumin pH were not uniform. The data from the constant temperature conditions were used to determine the coefficients of the egg quality prediction models, which consisted of the primary model controlling the change rate of the quality indicator at a temperature condition in differential equation form, and the secondary model controlling the change rate with temperature, which was in quadratic polynomial form. The models were applied to the data from the fluctuating temperature conditions, and the zeroth, third, and eighth order kinetic models described the stepwise change in the RWL, HU, and YI, respectively. The accuracy and bias factor values for the RWL, HU, and YI were 1.116 and 0.940, 1.028 and 1.001, and 1.038 and 0.966, respectively. It can be concluded that the models can be used to predict egg freshness in terms of the RWL, HU, and YI at any temperature condition with in the range of 5 to 30°C during storage.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1) gene encodes an estrogen receptor, which regulates cell proliferation and promotes tumor progression in estrogen receptor(ER)-positive breast cancer (BC). Therefore, endocrine therapy that inhibiting ER downstream signal, is the most effective treatment strategy in ER-positive BC. However, about 25% of patients with primary disease and almost all patients with metastases will present with or eventually develop endocrine resistance. And genetic alteration of ESR1 is now identified as the endocrine resistance mechanism. However, a few data from clinical trials or public data base exists and could not reflect real world clinic. Therefore, we aimed to identify the frequency and type of ESR1 genetic alterations in BCs through this large scaled study.
Methods: We performed targeted ultra-deep sequencing (CancerSCAN™) using BC tissue specimens. This sequencing was covered entire coding area of ESR1 gene and also detected copy number alteration and translocation of ESR1.
Results: Targeted ultra-deep sequencing of ESR1 was performed using 618 BC tissues. Of 618 tissue samples, 253(40.9%) were MBCs, 362(58.6%) were early BCs (EBCs) and 3 were not identified. In terms of subtypes, 220 ER-positive BCs, 122 ER-positive and HER2-positive BCs, 119 HER2-positive and 153 triple-negative BCs (TNBCs) were included. BCs from patients under 40 year-old were 277(44.8%)(Median: 43.0, range: 23.5 -75.6). ESR1 genetic alterations were identified in 21 BCs (5 EBCs and 16 MBCs). In EBCs, 3 cases were observed in TNBCs and 2 cases were in ER-positive BCs (2.6% and 1.2%, respectively). All five EBC were treatment naïve status. Of 16 cases of ESR1 alterations in MBCs, 10 cases of ESR1 alterations were detected in ER-positive BCs (17.6%), 5cases in ER and HER2-positive BCs(6.7%) and 1 in HER2-positive BCs (1.2%). All ER-positive MBCs were treated with more than one line of endocrine therapy. Most commonly detected genetic alteration was single nucleotide variant (SNV) (15 of 21, 71.4%). Thirteen were in ligand binding domain and two cases occurred in activation function-1 (AF-1) domain (P79A and G145S). D538G and V392I were most frequently mutated loci followed by Y537N (3, 3 and 2 cases, respectively) and only metastatic ER-positive BCs harbored ESR1 activating mutation. Four copy number (CN) amplification in 2 ER-positive and 2 ER and HER2-positive BCs, one CN deletion in TNBC and one ESR1 fusion in ER and HER2-positive BC were also detected (19.0%, 4.8% and 4.8%, respectively). In frame ESR1 fusion was occurred between ESR1 and NPHS1 genes.
Conclusion: In this experimental study, ESR1 genetic alterations were frequently detected in ER-positive MBC but ER-negative or EBC also harbored. The type of genetic alterations varied including SNVs, CN alterations and translocation and ESR1-NPHS1 fusion is the novel genetic alteration that has not been reported. To identify the role of ESR1 genetic alteration in ER-negative BCs and novel translocation, further functional validation would be warranted (Clinical trials.gov Number :NCT02591966).

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Poziotinib is a novel, pan-HER kinase inhibitor which showed potent anti-tumor activities through irreversible inhibition of HER family tyrosine kinases in preclinical and early clinical studies. Recent the open-label, multicenter phase II trial of poziotinib monotherapy evaluated that poziotinib is a new promising option for patients with HER2-positive metastatic BC who have failed more than two HER2 targeted therapy (NCT02418689). We evaluated genetic profiles of HER2-positive metastatic BC and investigated potential biomarkers of poziotinib for HER2-positive metastatic BC (MBC). Methods: All participants were diagnosed as HER2-positive BCs according to American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists HER2 guideline and provided tissue specimens that would be possible to extract DNA and RNA for next generation sequencing. We performed targeted deep sequencing with a customized 381 cancer gene panel (CancerSCAN™) and analyzed the relationship among the sequencing data, immunohistochemistry and clinical outcome.
Results: From Apr 2015 to Feb 2016, 106 patients were enrolled in the trial from 7 institutes in Korea. Of 106 patients, biomarker data were available for 79 patients. TP53 was the most frequently mutated gene (70.8%) followed by PIK3CA (45.6%). HER2 single nucleotide variant (SNV) was detected in 13 BCs (16.5%) and HER3 SNV was in 9 (11.4%). The score of HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) was 3+ in 68 BCs and 2+ with positive in situ hybridization in 11 BCs. In copy number variant (CNV) analysis, HER2 amplification (86.1%) was most frequently observed and followed by CDK12 amplification (58.2%) and APOBEC3B deletion (30.4%). IHC score of HER2 was positively correlated to copy number (CN) of HER2 (P=0.001) but 11 breast cancer tissue did not have copy number amplification of HER2 (13.9%) (Six of HER2 IHC score 2+ and 5 of 3+). The median progression free survival (PFS) was 4.04 months (95% CI, 2.96 - 4.40) for patients who treated with poziotinib in this study. PIK3CA activating mutations were associated with short PFS compared to wild type (WT) and other SNVs (Median PFS of activating mutations vs. WT and others: 2.66 vs. 4.40 (months), P=0.009). HER2 CN amplification was positively correlated to duration of PFS (Median PFS of no amplification vs. 4 ≤ CN < 16 vs. 16 ≤ CN: 2.56 vs. 3.02 vs. 4.86 (months), P=0.032). HER2 SNVs prolonged duration of PFS without statistical significance (Median PFS of HER2 SNVs vs. WT: 4.24 vs. 3.19 (months), P=0.114), but 10 of 13 BCs with HER2 SNV (76.9%) had clinical benefit from poziotinib and 5 BCs (38.5%) had durable response more than 6 months. Conclusion: In this biomarker analysis, SNV of HER2 was frequently observed in HER2 positive MBCs and HER2 CN amplification was detected not in all. High CN amplification of HER2 derived longer PFS than those with low CN. To contrary to this, activating PIK3CA mutations shorten PFS compared to those with WT. In addition, HER2 SNVs might be a potential biomarker of poziotinib in HER2-positive MBC. Further functional study would be warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: We have previously shown that some breast cancers express major histocompatibility complex II (MHC-II), correlating with enhanced immune infiltration. In other tumor types, we have shown that MHC-II expression on tumor cells predicts clinical response to checkpoint inhibition. We sought to determine the direct effects of MHC-II on anti-tumor immunity and characterize mechanisms of immune escape in this breast cancer subset.
Methods: To determine the functional effects of MHC-II on tumor cells, we generated isogenic mouse breast tumor cells with enforced MHC-II expression and determined their ability to generate tumors in syngeneic mice, the impact on immunity, and their response to checkpoint inhibition. In a series of molecularly-characterized HER2+ (n=8) and triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC; n=103), we performed immunohistochemistry (IHC) and quantitative immunofluorescence (QIF) for Lag-3, PD-L1, CD4, CD8, FCRL6, and granzyme B.
Results: Following injection in syngeneic immunocompetent mice, MHC-II+ mouse breast tumors were more frequently rejected (p=0.04) and recruited greater numbers of CD4+ TILs. When MHC-II+ tumors escaped rejection, they expressed higher degrees of PD-1 and Lag-3 in the tumor and in the draining lymph node. Since Lag-3 is a checkpoint that specifically targets MHC-II, we hypothesized that MHC-II+ breast cancers escape anti-tumor immunity through suppressing MHC-II-mediated antigen presentation. Combinations of anti-Lag-3 and anti-Pd-1 antibodies inhibited growth of MHC-II+ tumors. These findings led us to also explore Fc receptor-like 6 (FCRL6), a previously reported MHC-II receptor expressed on NK and cytotoxic T cells. Residual MHC-II+ TNBC post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) recruited greater numbers of CD4+ and CD8+ TILs (p=0.0001 and p=0.0002), suggesting enhanced immune recognition. However, MHC-II+ TNBCs also demonstrated a greater frequency of Lag-3+ and FCRL6+ TILs (p<0.001 and p=0.01, respectively) which frequently co-occurred (p=0.003). Thus, our data suggest that MHC-II expression in breast tumors supports recruitment of MHC-II-specific checkpoint-positive TILs. In line with this concept, QIF analysis demonstrated that the presence of Lag3+ and/or FCRL6+ TILs was strongly associated with suppression of T cell cytotoxicity as assessed by granzyme-B+ CD8+ T cells (p=0.0001 and p=0.002, respectively). Functional analyses of FCRL6 on human NK cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) demonstrated that like Lag3, FCRL6 is a checkpoint which engages MHC-II and suppresses cytotoxic NK and T cell activity.
Conclusions: These data suggest that MHC-II+ breast tumors are immunologically active and circumvent anti-tumor immunity by targeting MHC-II antigen presentation through recruitment of Lag-3+ and FCRL6+ TILs. We describe herein FCRL6 as a novel bona fide immune checkpoint which targets MHC-II, which may impact a variety of cancers. MHC-II expression status may be a useful biomarker for patient stratification on anti-PD-1/anti-Lag-3 combination, and eventually, anti-PD-1/anti-FCRL6 combinations in patients with breast cancer.
