Abstract:
PURPOSE:The receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (RANK)/RANK ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) axis may contribute to the development of bone metastases (BM). We studied gene expression in this pathway in primary breast cancer (BC) to determine correlations with clinical characteristics and outcomes in the neoadjuvant I-SPY1 study. METHODS:We evaluated RANK/RANKL/OPG expression using expression microarrays in I-SPY1 (n = 149). Associations with clinical features were determined using t test and ANOVA. Associations between biomarker high versus low groups (dichotomized at an optimal cutpoint) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were evaluated using the log-rank test and in a multivariate Cox proportional hazard model. A pooled external neoadjuvant cohort with gene expression data (GSE25066) (Hatzis et al. in JAMA 305(18):1873-1881, 30) (n = 425) was used for validation. Associations with site-specific relapse were evaluated using the t-test and multivariate logistic regression adjusting for hormone receptor (HR) status. RESULTS:RANK was significantly higher in HR negative versus HR positive (p = 0.027), in basal versus non-basal disease (p = 0.004), and in those achieving pathologic complete response (p = 0.038); the associations with HR negative and basal BC were also significant in GSE25066. In both datasets, higher RANK associated with significantly worse RFS (I-SPY1: p = 0.045, GSE25066: p = 0.044). However, this association did not remain significant after adjusting for HR status. In I-SPY1 patients with recurrence, higher RANK correlated with BM versus non-BM (p = 0.045), even after adjusting for HR status (p = 0.035). CONCLUSIONS:RANK is increased in HR negative and basal BC, and correlates with worse RFS and risk of BM. The RANK pathway is a potential therapeutic target in BC.
