| Summary: | Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) presented as high heterogeneous immunogenicity that lacks useful clinical signatures to risk-stratify immune-benefit subtypes. We hypothesized that molecular-based phenotypic characterization of TNBC tumors and their immunity may overcome these challenges. We enrolled 1,145 patients with TNBC for analysis. Through combining algorithm integration analysis and TNBC datasets, a tumor immune risk score (TIRS) panel consisting of 8 potential biomarkers was identified. The TIRS panel represented excellent effectiveness as an independent predictor. High- and low risk stratification of patients was further achieved by TIRS, and significant survival and immune-infiltration pattern differences were found in each cohort, both at the transcriptome and protein levels. Non-negative matrix factorization clustering further identified four different tumor immune microenvironment types (TIMTs), among which TIMT-II was associated with the best prognosis and immune status, whereas TIMT-IV had the opposite effect, TIMT-III was associated with highly unstable genomes, and TIMT-I displayed stem-cell-related characteristics along with high stromal scores and may have extensive enrichment of tumor-associated fibroblasts and vascular cells. In conclusion, our TIRS panel could serve as a robust prognostic signature and provide therapeutic benefits for immunotherapy. Additionally, coordinating four TIMTs may be helpful for clinical decision-making in TNBC patients. |
