    Abstract Breast cancer remains a highly prevalent disease with considerable inter- and intra-tumoral heterogeneity complicating prognostication and treatment decisions. The utilization and depth of genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data for cancer has exploded over recent times and the addition of spatial context to this information, by understanding the correlating morphologic and spatial patterns of cells in tissue samples, has created an exciting frontier of research, histo-genomics. At the same time, deep learning (DL), a class of machine learning algorithms employing artificial neural networks, has rapidly progressed in the last decade with a confluence of technical developments - including the advent of modern graphic processing units (GPU), allowing efficient implementation of increasingly complex architectures at scale; advances in the theoretical and practical design of network architectures; and access to larger datasets for training - all leading to sweeping advances in image classification and object detection. In this review, we examine recent developments in the application of DL in breast cancer histology with particular emphasis of those producing biologic insights or novel biomarkers, spanning the extraction of genomic information to the use of stroma to predict cancer recurrence, with the aim of suggesting avenues for further advancing this exciting field.

    Abstract Pathologists worldwide are facing remarkable challenges with increasing workloads and lack of time to provide consistently high-quality patient care. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) to digital whole-slide images has the potential of democratizing the access to expert pathology and affordable biomarkers by supporting pathologists in the provision of timely and accurate diagnosis as well as supporting oncologists by directly extracting prognostic and predictive biomarkers from tissue slides. The long-awaited adoption of AI in pathology, however, has not materialized, and the transformation of pathology is happening at a much slower pace than that observed in other fields (eg, radiology). Here, we provide a critical summary of the developments in digital and computational pathology in the last 10 years, outline key hurdles and ways to overcome them, and provide a perspective for AI-supported precision oncology in the future.

    Abstract Summary: Spatial biology approaches enabled by innovations in imaging biomarker platforms and artificial intelligence-enabled data integration and analysis provide an assessment of patient and disease heterogeneity at ever-increasing resolution. The utility of spatial biology data in accelerating drug programs, however, requires balancing exploratory discovery investigations against scalable and clinically applicable spatial biomarker analysis.

    Abstract Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) encompasses a heterogeneous group of fundamentally different diseases with different histologic, genomic, and immunologic profiles, which are aggregated under this term because of their lack of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression. Massively parallel sequencing and other omics technologies have demonstrated the level of heterogeneity in TNBCs and shed light into the pathogenesis of this therapeutically challenging entity in breast cancer. In this review, we discuss the histologic and molecular classifications of TNBC, the genomic alterations these different tumor types harbor, and the potential impact of these alterations on the pathogenesis of these tumors. We also explore the role of the tumor microenvironment in the biology of TNBCs and its potential impact on therapeutic response. Dissecting the biology and understanding the therapeutic dependencies of each TNBC subtype will be essential to delivering on the promise of precision medicine for patients with triple-negative disease.

    Abstract Rare subtypes of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) are a heterogenous group of tumors, comprising 5-10% of all TNBCs. Despite accounting for an absolute number of cases in aggregate approaching that of other less common, but well studied solid tumors, rare subtypes of triple-negative disease remain understudied. Low prevalence, diagnostic challenges and overlapping diagnoses have hindered consistent categorization of these breast cancers. Here we review epidemiology, histology and clinical and molecular characteristics of metaplastic, triple-negative lobular, apocrine, adenoid cystic, secretory and high-grade neuroendocrine TNBCs. Medullary pattern invasive ductal carcinoma no special type, which until recently was a considered a distinct subtype, is also discussed. With this background, we review how applying biological principals often applied to study TNBC no special type could improve our understanding of rare TNBCs. These could include the utilization of targeted molecular approaches or disease agnostic tools such as tumor mutational burden or germline mutation-directed treatments. Burgeoning data also suggest that pathologic response to neoadjuvant therapy and circulating tumor DNA have value in understanding rare subtypes of TNBC. Finally, we discuss a framework for advancing disease-specific knowledge in this space. While the conduct of randomized trials in rare TNBC subtypes has been challenging, re-envisioning trial design and technologic tools may offer new opportunities. These include embedding rare TNBC subtypes in umbrella studies of rare tumors, retrospective review of contemporary trials, prospective identification of patients with rare TNBC subtypes entering on clinical trials and querying big data for outcomes of patients with rare breast tumors.

    Abstract Metaplastic breast cancers (MBC) encompass a group of highly heterogeneous tumors which share the ability to differentiate into squamous, mesenchymal or neuroectodermal components. While often termed rare breast tumors, given the relatively high prevalence of breast cancer, they are seen with some frequency. Depending upon the definition applied, MBC represents 0.2% to 1% of breast cancers diagnosed in the United States. Less is known about the epidemiology of MBC globally, though a growing number of reports are providing information on this. These tumors are often more advanced at presentation relative to breast cancer broadly. While more indolent subtypes exist, the majority of MBC subtypes are associated with inferior survival. MBC is most commonly of triple-negative phenotype. In less common hormone receptor positive MBCs, hormone receptor status appears not to be prognostic. In contrast, relatively rare HER2-positive MBCs are associated with superior outcomes. Multiple potentially targetable molecular features are overrepresented in MBC including DNA repair deficiency signatures and PIK3/AKT/mTOR and WNT pathways alterations. Data on the prevalence of targets for novel antibody-drug conjugates is also emerging. While chemotherapy appears to be less active in MBC than in other breast cancer subtypes, efficacy is seen in some MBCs. Disease-specific trials, as well as reports of exceptional responses, may provide clues for novel approaches to this often hard-to-treat breast cancer. Strategies which harness newer research tools, such as large data and artificial intelligence hold the promise of overcoming historic barriers to the study of uncommon tumors and could markedly advance disease-specific understanding in MBC.

    Abstract Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare form of pancreatic cancer that commonly harbors targetable alterations, including activating fusions in the MAPK pathway and loss-of-function (LOF) alterations in DNA damage response/homologous recombination DNA repair-related genes. Here, we describe a patient with PACC harboring both somatic biallelic LOF of NBN and an activating NTRK1 fusion. Upon disease progression following 13 months of treatment with folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX), genomic analysis of a metastatic liver biopsy revealed the emergence of a novel reversion mutation restoring the reading frame of NBN. To our knowledge, genomic reversion of NBN has not been previously reported as a resistance mechanism in any tumor type. The patient was treated with, but did not respond to, targeted treatment with a selective NTRK inhibitor. This case highlights the complex but highly actionable genomic landscape of PACC and underlines the value of genomic profiling of rare tumor types such as PACC.
