Bone constitutes the first site of distant metastases for many affected women. The purpose of this retrospective multicentre study was to evaluate if and how different variables such as primary tumour stage, biological and histological subtype, age at primary diagnosis, tumour size, the number of affected lymph nodes as well as grading influence the development of bone-only metastases. Methods This retrospective German multicentre study is based on the BRENDA collective and included 9625 patients with primary breast cancer recruited from 1992 to 2008. In this analysis, we investigated a subgroup of 226 patients with bone-only metastases. Association between bone-only relapse and clinico-pathological risk factors was assessed in multivariate models using the tree-building algorithms "exhausted CHAID (Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detectors)" and CART(Classification and Regression Tree), as well as radial basis function networks (RBF-net), feedforward multilayer perceptron networks (MLP) and logistic regression. Results Multivariate analysis demonstrated that breast cancer subtypes have the strongest influence on the development of bone-only metastases (χ2 = 28). 29.9 \% of patients with luminal A or luminal B (ABC-patients) and 11.4 \% with triple negative BC (TNBC) or HER2-overexpressing tumours had bone-only metastases (p < 0.001). Five different mathematical models confirmed this correlation. The second important risk factor is the age at primary diagnosis. Moreover, BC subcategories influence the overall survival from date of metastatic disease of patients with bone-only metastases. Patients with bone-only metastases and TNBC (p < 0.001; HR = 7.47 (95 \% CI: 3.52-15.87) or HER2 overexpressing BC (p = 0.007; HR = 3.04 (95 \% CI: 1.36-6.80) have the worst outcome compared to patients with luminal A or luminal B tumours and bone-only metastases. Conclusion The bottom line of different mathematical models is the prior importance of subcategories of breast cancer and the age at primary diagnosis for the appearance of osseous metastases. The primary tumour stage, histological subtype, tumour size, the number of affected lymph nodes, grading and NPI seem to have only a minor influence on the development of bone-only metastases.}, language = {en} } @article{LopezKleinheinzAukemaetal.2019, author = {L{\´o}pez, Cristina and Kleinheinz, Kortine and Aukema, Sietse M. and Rohde, Marius and Bernhart, Stephan H. and H{\"u}bschmann, Daniel and Wagener, Rabea and Toprak, Umut H. and Raimondi, Francesco and Kreuz, Markus and Waszak, Sebastian M. and Huang, Zhiqin and Sieverling, Lina and Paramasivam, Nagarajan and Seufert, Julian and Sungalee, Stephanie and Russell, Robert B. and Bausinger, Julia and Kretzmer, Helene and Ammerpohl, Ole and Bergmann, Anke K. and Binder, Hans and Borkhardt, Arndt and Brors, Benedikt and Claviez, Alexander and Doose, Gero and Feuerbach, Lars and Haake, Andrea and Hansmann, Martin-Leo and Hoell, Jessica and Hummel, Michael and Korbel, Jan O. and Lawerenz, Chris and Lenze, Dido and Radlwimmer, Bernhard and Richter, Julia and Rosenstiel, Philip and Rosenwald, Andreas and Schilhabel, Markus B. and Stein, Harald and Stilgenbauer, Stephan and Stadler, Peter F. and Szczepanowski, Monika and Weniger, Marc A. and Zapatka, Marc and Eils, Roland and Lichter, Peter and Loeffler, Markus and M{\"o}ller, Peter and Tr{\"u}mper, Lorenz and Klapper, Wolfram and Hoffmann, Steve and K{\"u}ppers, Ralf and Burkhardt, Birgit and Schlesner, Matthias and Siebert, Reiner}, title = {Genomic and transcriptomic changes complement each other in the pathogenesis of sporadic Burkitt lymphoma}, series = {Nature Communications}, volume = {10}, journal = {Nature Communications}, organization = {ICGC MMML-Seq Consortium}, doi = {10.1038/s41467-019-08578-3}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-237281}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is the most common B-cell lymphoma in children. Within the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), we performed whole genome and transcriptome sequencing of 39 sporadic BL. Here, we unravel interaction of structural, mutational, and transcriptional changes, which contribute to MYC oncogene dysregulation together with the pathognomonic IG-MYC translocation. Moreover, by mapping IGH translocation breakpoints, we provide evidence that the precursor of at least a subset of BL is a B-cell poised to express IGHA. We describe the landscape of mutations, structural variants, and mutational processes, and identified a series of driver genes in the pathogenesis of BL, which can be targeted by various mechanisms, including IG-non MYC translocations, germline and somatic mutations, fusion transcripts, and alternative splicing.}, language = {en} }
