The impacts of androgen receptor on treatment response and survival in triple-negative breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy: a single-center retrospective study
Overall, we concluded that AR negativity was linked to increased proliferative activity and complete axillary response in TNBC patients. AR positivity, on the other hand, was associated with residual nodal disease. Ultimately, we could show no significant influence of AR expression on survival. Our findings suggest that AR may serve as a potential biomarker for predicting axillary response in TNBC.
