The tumor microenvironment of 14,837 breast cancers is associated with clinical outcome independently of genomic subtypes
Tu et al. present a systematic analysis of the tumor microenvironment across 14,837 breast cancers, identifying distinct cellular patterns that predict disease-specific survival independently of genomic and intrinsic subtypes. Characterizing microenvironment composition may provide critical prognostic markers that can complement current molecular classification for treatment selection and preventing recurrence.
