Comparison between <i>NOD2 </i>gene mutation carriers (3020insC) and non-carriers in breast cancer patients: a clinicopathological and survival analysis

Abstract: Introduction: The 3020insC mutation of NOD2 predisposes to many types of common cancers, e.g. breast cancer. In this report we compare NOD2 3020insC mutation carriers with non-carriers in a similar age range at diagnosis according to clinicopathological factors and survival in breast cancer patients from the Silesia region in Poland. Material and methods: We reviewed the medical records of 72 early breast cancer patients, who were diagnosed and treated in COI in Gliwice. Genetic diagnostics was conducted in al… Show more

“…The available published data indicate that the risk of regional lymph node metastasis in triple negative breast cancer patients is low and an SLNB procedure may be not necessary [17][18][19]. However, still, for the aforementioned patients, even after a neoadjuvant systemic therapy, an SLNB procedure should be performed.…”

“…In another study, the risk of gastric cancer in NOD2 3020insC-mutation carriers at age >50 years was more than doubled (OR = 2.479; p = 0.022) and was almost even three-fold greater among women [ 10 ]. In a previous analysis, the presence of NOD2 mutation was associated with an increased risk of a family history of breast, renal, and colorectal cancer [ 7 ]. In the present analysis, a family history of cancer, including BC, was observed more often in NOD2 -mutation compared with the control group; in patients at age ≥ 50 years.…”

“…The associated factors confirmed in the aforementioned studies were younger age at diagnosis, family history of cancer (especially breast and gastrointestinal cancer) [ 8 ], and early-stage disease [ 6 ]. In our previous study, the presence of NOD2 (3020insC) in women with BC was characterised by positive predictive factors such as: lymph nodes without metastasis (N0), lower histological grade (G<3), and negative HER2 receptor status (HER2–) [ 7 ].…”
