Among 440 Chinese women with triple-negative breast cancer, none had high microsatellite instability by PCR and only one had lost a mismatch repair protein, so the tumour-agnostic immunotherapy route through microsatellite instability almost never applies.
Tissue microarrays from 440 TNBC patients (median age 49, median follow-up 68 months) were stained for MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2; 195 were also tested by MSI PCR. All samples were proficient except one with MSH2 loss and intact MSH6; PCR found no MSI-high case, 14 (7.2%) MSI-low and 181 (92.8%) stable. The dMMR sample had low-frequency instability and a possible EPCAM deletion. MMR and MSI status did not correlate with clinicopathological features, PD-1/PD-L1 expression or survival.
MSI testing has a very low yield in TNBC; TMB and PD-L1 are the immunotherapy biomarkers worth pursuing.
