ASAP1 Expression in Invasive Breast Cancer and Its Prognostic Role.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is a major global health burden with high morbidity and mortality rates. Previous studies have reported that increased expression of ASAP1 is associated with poor prognosis in various types of cancer. This study was conducted on 452 breast cancer patients who underwent surgery at Hanyang University Hospital, Seoul, South Korea. Data on clinicopathological characteristics including molecular pathologic markers were collected. Immunohistochemical staining of ASAP1 expression level were used to classify patients into high and low groups. In total, 452 cases low ASAP1 expression group was associated with significantly worse recurrence-free survival (p = 0.029). In ER-positive cases (n = 280), the low ASAP1 expression group was associated with significantly worse ove
