Personalized medicine in triple-negative breast cancer: combining neoantigen vaccination and genomic profiling in a patient undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy

This case highlights the potential of integrating precision oncology for TNBC patients undergoing NAC by identifying inherited cancer risks, detecting actionable mutations, and developing personalized neoantigen-based immunotherapies. The observation of immune responses to both vaccine and non-vaccine neoantigens raises the possibility of epitope spreading, though this finding requires cautious interpretation due to pre-existing immune responses. As a single-patient case study, these results remain preliminary and must be validated in larger cohorts.

Abstract

This case highlights the potential of integrating precision oncology for TNBC patients undergoing NAC by identifying inherited cancer risks, detecting actionable mutations, and developing personalized neoantigen-based immunotherapies. The observation of immune responses to both vaccine and non-vaccine neoantigens raises the possibility of epitope spreading, though this finding requires cautious interpretation due to pre-existing immune responses. As a single-patient case study, these results remain preliminary and must be validated in larger cohorts.
