BackgroundThe prevalence of BRCA1 somatic mutations status in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has not been well documented. The aims of this study were to determine the frequency ofBRCA1somatic mutations and to investigate the association betweenBRCA1deleterious somatic mutation status and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in women with TNBC.MethodsTwo hundred and five TNBC patients withoutBRCA1germline mutations were enrolled in this study. Fresh tumor tissues were available for this cohort of 205 patients, including 112 patients with fresh core needle biopsy tumor tissues before treatment and 93 patients with fresh tumor tissues procured after surgery.BRCA1somatic mutations were determined in the tumor samples using PCR-direct sequencing assay. Among the 112 patients with core needle biopsy samples, 97 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.ResultsEight patients (3.9%) carried aBRCA1pathogenic somatic mutation in this cohort of 205 TNBC patients. These eightBRCA1deleterious somatic mutations included five frameshift or nonsense mutations (c.191_212del22, c.1664delA, c.4674_4675 + 17del, c.3671_3672insTTCC, c.1162A > T), one splicing site mutation (c.134 + 2T > G) and two missense mutations (c.5511G > C and c.286G > A). No significant differences in tumor characteristics betweenBRCA1deleterious somatic mutation carriers and non-carriers were observed. The pCR (pathologic complete response) rate was 32.0% in the 97 patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.BRCA1deleterious somatic mutation carriers (n = 5) had a higher pCR rate than did non-carriers (n = 92) (BRCA1carriers vs non-carriers, 60.0% vs 30.4%,P= 0.32), although it did not reach a significance due to a small sample size.ConclusionsA small subset of TNBC patients carried aBRCA1deleterious somatic mutation;BRCA1somatic mutation carriers are likely to respond to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
