Objective To summarize the progress of clinical research on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Methods Domestic and international publications on the study of TNBC in recent years were collected and reviewed. Results The patients with TNBC were younger, and their prognosis was poorer. Besides operation, chemotherapy was the major therapeutic tool for them. Currently the targeted therapy for epidermal growth factor receptor and its signal conducting system was applied to clinical therapy gradually， and it might benefit the patients with TNBC. Conclusion The study on TNBC may bring a new way for therapy.
Objective To understand breast cancer 1 (BRCA1) gene and relationship between BRCA1 gene and breast cancer, and analyze its effect on clinical comprehensive therapy of breast cancer. Method The domestic and international studies relevant BRCA1 and breast cancer in recent years were reviewed and summarized. Results BRCA1, a tumor suppressor gene, its mutations caused structural changes and functional abnormalities, which were closely related to breast cancer. And the expression situation and mutation of BRCA1 were associated with the therapeutic effect. Conclusions Mutation of BRCA1 is closely related to occurrence and development of breast cancer in female. Comprehensive therapy ideas should be found in clinical therapy according to expression or mutation of BRCA1. Further research on BTCA1 is beneficial to explore gold standard for treatment of breast cancer.
