To collect tumor biospecimens from patients who previously enrolled in either TAILORx or RxPONDER. There are 3 separate cohorts separated by recurrence score and study:
- Cohort 1= TAILORx w/ recurrence score of 0-100
- Cohort 2= RXPONDER w/ recurrence score of 0-25
- Cohort 3= RxPONDER w/ recurrence score of 26-100
These samples will be used to assess the following primary objectives:
- Patterns of clonal evolution and the landscape of somatic alterations in paired primary tumor samples and recurrence samples
- Prevalence of the integrative cluster (IntClust) and intrinsic (PAM50) subtypes and of subtype switching in paired primary tumor samples and recurrence samples
- Identify molecular signatures, including the SET 2/3 RNA expression assay, of primary tumor specimens associated with recurrence in patients with high genomic risk and high clinical risk (Cohort 3) who received adjuvant chemotherapy plus endocrine therapy.
The study team also plans to evaluate immune composition and the prevalence of tumor-immune microenvironment (TME subtypes), and characterize the TME and cell-cell interactions in native tissue context through spatial tanscriptomic and proteomic profiling of tissue sections.
