摘要: PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway alterations are frequent in patients with infiltrating breast cancer (IBC). Their clinical and pathological relevance has been insufficiently documented. We evaluated PI3KCA for mutations the expression of PTEN, AKT, mTOR p70S6K by immunohistochemistry 246 IBC treated hormone therapy (median follow-up, 97 months). A mutation was observed 50 out 229 informative cases (21.8 %), PTEN loss 107 210 (51 moderate/high level AKT 133 188 (71 173 218 (79 %) 111 192 (58 %). associated absence Her2/neu amplification/overexpression a low MIB1/Ki-67 labelling.
