Abstract:BackgroundOestrogen receptor positive (ER+)/HER‐2 negative breast cancer (BC) is considered to be an immunologically cold tumour compared to triple negative breast cancer. Therefore, the tumour microenvironment (TME) of ER+/HER‐2 negative BC is understudied. The aim of this project is to investigate the TME and the immune response during neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET) and to correlate this with the treatment response in a real life setting.MethodsExpression of immune checkpoint receptors and immune cells … Show more
