Transcriptional and Epimetabolic Profile of Breast Carcinoma With Luminal or HER2+ or Locally Advanced Triple-negative Histotype in Patients With/Without Previous Clinical History of Metabolic Syndrome
This prospective pilot study of biological specimens aims to identify new prognostic and predictive biomarkers of response to standard therapy for local advanced BC, as well as to identify new targets for the development of immuno- therapeutic protocols. First aim is therefore to expand our knowledge to increase the response …
