Summary: Mosaic BRCA1 promoter methylation is associated with an increased risk of early-onset breast cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, and ovarian cancer. This de novo event could contribute to hereditary breast/ovarian cancer pedigrees, especially in families with affected relatives showing high prevalence of BRCA1meth. Detection of BRCA1meth may indicate involvement of BRCA1 in tumorigenesis in affected probands.

Summary: This meta-analysis aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics of breast cancer with BRCA1 gene hypermethylation. Results showed a strong correlation between BRCA1 hypermethylation and advanced breast cancer stage, lymph node involvement, and premenopausal status. This suggests the potential for personalized treatment strategies for this subgroup of breast cancer patients.

Summary: The study investigated the utility of serial ctDNA testing in predicting pCR and risk of metastatic recurrence during neoadjuvant chemotherapy for high-risk early breast cancer patients. The results showed that lack of ctDNA clearance was a significant predictor of poor response and metastatic recurrence, while clearance was associated with improved survival even in patients who did not achieve pCR. Personalized monitoring of ctDNA during NAC may aid in real-time assessment of treatment response and help fine-tune pCR as a surrogate endpoint of survival.

Summary: As breast cancer diagnoses continue to increase globally, exploring the role of liquid biopsies and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in diagnosis and surveillance becomes increasingly important. CtDNA is emerging as a potential biomarker for breast cancer, offering personalized and effective treatment approaches.

Summary: mDETECT is a next-generation sequencing-based blood test designed for the optimal detection and monitoring of metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It offers superior performance, high sensitivity, and specificity in detecting TNBC, providing potential improvements in patient management.

Summary: In patients with high-risk, HER2-negative early breast cancer and germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants, adjuvant olaparib after completion of local treatment and neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy was associated with significantly longer survival free of invasive or distant disease than placebo. Olaparib had limited effects on global patient-reported quality of life.

Summary: Disulfiram and hydralazine have been found to have anti-cancer effects and have been repositioned as adjuvants in cancer therapy. This study evaluated the triple combination of doxorubicin, hydrazine, and disulfiram against wild-type and doxorubicin-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The results showed that the triple combination reduced drug resistance and enhanced chemosensitivity to doxorubicin in the cancer cells.

Summary: This study investigated the correlation between BRCA1 promoter methylation levels and HRD status and clinical behavior in patients with high-grade ovarian cancer. The results showed that high levels of methylation were positively correlated with HRD status and response to PARPi treatment.

Summary: Liquid biopsies have shown promising results in breast cancer, particularly in monitoring treatment response and predicting disease progression or relapse. With further research and advancements in technology, liquid biopsies may have a greater role in the breast cancer clinic in the future.

Summary: This study found that approximately 20% of TNBC and low-ER expression breast cancers may be caused by prenatal BRCA1 epimutations. The constitutional mosaic BRCA1 methylation likely arises through gender-related mechanisms in utero, independent of Mendelian inheritance.

Summary: This study found that the levels of H3.1-nucleosomes are elevated in the plasma samples of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) compared to healthy donors. The study also identified eight histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) that were present at higher levels in NHL patients' plasma. These findings suggest that H3.1-nucleosomes and histone PTMs may serve as useful biomarkers for diagnosing and monitoring non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Summary: The study found that higher mdNLRs were associated with TNBC, and a lower ratio of NK cells was strongly linked to TNBC. These findings enhance our understanding of the role of the immune system in TNBC and suggest the potential use of NK cell level as a non-invasive molecular marker for TNBC risk assessment, early detection, and prevention.

Summary: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer requires accurate biomarkers to predict patient response. A study found 9 differentially methylated regions associated with NAC response in TNBC, with 4 of these regions also linked to overall survival. This highlights the potential of DNA methylation biomarkers for predicting NAC response in TNBC.
