    Abstract Financial inclusion efforts seek to ensure that all members of an economy can have access to and effectively use appropriate financial services. Improving financial inclusion has become a significant concern for developed and developing countries alike. There are many indicators of financial inclusion, the most elementary of which includes having an account in a financial institution. This paper will evaluate the impact of indicators of financial inclusion on economic development. The result shows that correlations exist between large numbers of bank branches, ATMs, domestic credit in the private sector and the increased rate of development in the economy. People will gain a more prosperous life due to this development. The paper also provides recommendations for the governments of developing countries to improve financial inclusion.

    Abstract Metastatic breast cancer (mBC) remains incurable and liver metastases (LM) are observed in approximately 50% of all patients with mBC. In some cases, surgical resection of breast cancer liver metastases (BCLM) is associated with prolonged survival. However, there are currently no validated marker to identify these patients. The interactions between the metastatic cancer cells and the liver microenvironment result in two main histopathological growth patterns (HGP): replacement (r-HGP), characterized by a direct contact between the cancer cells and the hepatocytes, and desmoplastic (d-HGP), in which a fibrous rim surrounds the tumor cells. In patients who underwent resection of BCLM, the r-HGP is associated with a worse postoperative prognosis than the d-HGP. Here, we aim at unraveling the biological differences between these HGP within ten patients presenting both HGP within the same metastasis. The transcriptomic analyses reveal overexpression of genes involved in cell cycle, DNA repair, vessel co-option and cell motility in r-HGP while angiogenesis, wound healing, and several immune processes were found overexpressed in d-HGP LM. Understanding the biology of the LM could open avenues to refine treatment of BC patients with LM.

    Abstract Primary tumors with a mixed invasive breast carcinoma of no-special type (IBC-NST) and invasive lobular cancer (ILC) histology are present in approximately five percent of all patients with breast cancer and are understudied at the metastatic level. Here, we characterized the histology of metastases from two patients with primary mixed IBC-NST/ILC from the postmortem tissue donation program UPTIDER (NCT04531696). The 14 and 43 metastatic lesions collected at autopsy had morphological features and E-cadherin staining patterns consistent with pure ILC. While our findings still require further validation, they may challenge current clinical practice and imaging modalities used in these patients.

    Abstract Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare but aggressive subtype of breast cancer, mainly characterized using primary tumor samples. Here, using public datasets, we compared the genomic alterations in primary and metastatic samples from patients with metastatic IBC versus patients with metastatic non-IBC. We observed a higher frequency of AURKA amplification in IBC. We further showed that AURKA amplification was associated with increased AURKA mRNA expression, which we demonstrated was higher in IBC. Finally, higher protein expression of AURKA was associated with worse prognosis in patients with IBC. These findings deserve further investigation given the existence of AURKA-inhibitors.

    Abstract Introduction: Anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have shown important efficacy in HER2-low metastatic breast cancer (mBC). Criteria for receiving ADCs are based on a single assay on the primary tumour or a small metastatic biopsy. We assessed the intra-patient inter-metastasis heterogeneity of HER2-low status in HER2-negative mBC.
    Patients and methods: We included samples of 10 patients (7 ER-positive and 3 ER-negative) donated in the context of our post-mortem tissue donation program UPTIDER. Excisional post-mortem biopsies of 257 metastases and 8 breast tumours underwent central HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC), alongside 41 pre-mortem primary or metastatic samples. They were classified as HER2-zero, HER2-low (HER2-1+ or HER2-2+, in situ hybridisation [ISH] negative) or HER2-positive (HER2-3+ or HER2-2+, ISH-positive) following ASCO/CAP guidelines 2018. HER2-zero was further subdivided into HER2-undetected (no staining) and HER2-ultralow (faint staining in ≤10% of tumour cells).
    Results: Median post-mortem interval was 2.5 h. In 8/10 patients, HER2-low and HER2-zero metastases co-existed, with the proportion of HER2-low lesions ranging from 5% to 89%. A total of 32% of metastases currently classified as HER2-zero were HER2-ultralow. Intra-organ inter-metastasis heterogeneity of HER2-scores was observed in the liver in 3/6 patients. Patients with primary ER-positive disease had a higher proportion of HER2-low metastases as compared to ER-negative disease (46% versus 8%, respectively). At the metastasis level, higher percentages of ER-expressing cells were observed in HER2-low or -ultralow as compared to HER2-undetected metastases.
    Conclusions: Important intra-patient inter-metastasis heterogeneity of HER2-low status exists. This questions the validity of HER2-low in its current form as a theranostic marker.

    Abstract Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare (1%-5%), aggressive form of breast cancer, accounting for approximately 10% of breast cancer mortality. In the localized setting, standard of care is neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) ± anti-HER2 therapy, followed by surgery. Here we investigated associations between clinicopathologic variables, stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTIL), and pathologic complete response (pCR), and the prognostic value of pCR. We included 494 localized patients with IBC treated with NACT from October 1996 to October 2021 in eight European hospitals. Standard clinicopathologic variables were collected and central pathologic review was performed, including sTIL. Associations were assessed using Firth logistic regression models. Cox regressions were used to evaluate the role of pCR and residual cancer burden (RCB) on disease-free survival (DFS), distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS), and overall survival (OS). Distribution according to receptor status was as follows: 26.4% estrogen receptor negative (ER-)/HER2-; 22.0% ER-/HER2+; 37.4% ER+/HER2-, and 14.1% ER+/HER2+. Overall pCR rate was 26.3%, being highest in the HER2+ groups (45.9% for ER-/HER2+ and 42.9% for ER+/HER2+). sTILs were low (median: 5.3%), being highest in the ER-/HER2- group (median: 10%). High tumor grade, ER negativity, HER2 positivity, higher sTILs, and taxane-based NACT were significantly associated with pCR. pCR was associated with improved DFS, DRFS, and OS in multivariable analyses. RCB score in patients not achieving pCR was independently associated with survival. In conclusion, sTILs were low in IBC, but were predictive of pCR. Both pCR and RCB have an independent prognostic role in IBC treated with NACT.
    Significance: IBC is a rare, but very aggressive type of breast cancer. The prognostic role of pCR after systemic therapy and the predictive value of sTILs for pCR are well established in the general breast cancer population; however, only limited information is available in IBC. We assembled the largest retrospective IBC series so far and demonstrated that sTIL is predictive of pCR. We emphasize that reaching pCR remains of utmost importance in IBC.

    Abstract Liver is the third most common organ for breast cancer (BC) metastasis. Two main histopathological growth patterns (HGP) exist in liver metastases (LM): desmoplastic and replacement. Although a reduced immunotherapy efficacy is reported in patients with LM, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) have not yet been investigated in BCLM. Here, we evaluate the distribution of the HGP and TIL in BCLM, and their association with clinicopathological variables and survival. We collect samples from surgically resected BCLM (n = 133 patients, 568 H&E sections) and post-mortem derived BCLM (n = 23 patients, 97 H&E sections). HGP is assessed as the proportion of tumor liver interface and categorized as pure-replacement ('pure r-HGP') or any-desmoplastic ('any d-HGP'). We score the TIL according to LM-specific guidelines. Associations with progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) are assessed using Cox regressions. We observe a higher prevalence of 'any d-HGP' (56%) in the surgical samples and a higher prevalence of 'pure r-HGP' (83%) in the post-mortem samples. In the surgical cohort, no evidence of the association between HGP and clinicopathological characteristics is observed except with the laterality of the primary tumor (p value = 0.049) and the systemic preoperative treatment before liver surgery (p value = .039). TIL is less prevalent in 'pure r-HGP' as compared to 'any d-HGP' (p value = 0.001). 'Pure r-HGP' predicts worse PFS (HR: 2.65; CI: (1.45-4.82); p value = 0.001) and OS (HR: 3.10; CI: (1.29-7.46); p value = 0.011) in the multivariable analyses. To conclude, we demonstrate that BCLM with a 'pure r-HGP' is associated with less TIL and with the worse outcome when compared with BCLM with 'any d-HGP'. These findings suggest that HGP could be considered to refine treatment approaches.

    Abstract Purpose: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) represents up to 15% of all breast carcinomas. While the proportion of women with overweight and obesity increases globally, the impact of body mass index (BMI) at primary diagnosis on clinicopathological features of ILC and the prognosis of the patients has not been investigated yet.
    Patients and methods: We performed a multicentric retrospective study including patients diagnosed with non-metastatic pure ILC. The association of BMI at diagnosis with clinicopathological variables was assessed using linear or multinomial logistic regression. Univariable and multivariable survival analyses were performed to evaluate the association of BMI with disease-free survival (DFS), distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS), and overall survival (OS).
    Results: The data of 2856 patients with ILC and available BMI at diagnosis were collected, of which 2570/2856 (90.0%) had oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) not amplified/overexpressed (ER+/HER2-) ILC. Of these 2570 patients, 80 were underweight (3.1%), 1410 were lean (54.9%), 712 were overweight (27.7%), and 368 were obese (14.3%). Older age at diagnosis, a higher tumour grade, a larger tumour size, a nodal involvement, and multifocality were associated with a higher BMI. In univariable models, higher BMI was associated with worse outcomes for all end-points (DFS: hazard ratio (HR) 1.21, 95CI 1.12-1.31, p value<0.01; DRFS: HR 1.25, 95CI 1.12-1.40, p value<0.01; OS: HR 1.25, 95CI 1.13-1.37, p value<0.01). This association was not statistically significant in multivariable analyses (DFS: HR 1.09, 95CI 0.99-1.20, p value 0.08; DRFS: HR 1.03, 95CI 0.89-1.20, p value 0.67; OS: HR 1.11, 95CI 0.99-1.24, p value 0.08), whereas grade, tumour size, and nodal involvement were still prognostic for all end-points.
    Conclusion: Worse prognostic factors such as higher grade, larger tumour size, and nodal involvement are associated with higher BMI in ER+/HER2- ILC, while there was no statistical evidence for an independent prognostic role for BMI. Therefore, we hypothesise that the effect of BMI on survival could be mediated through its association with these clinicopathological variables.
