    Lapatinib is an oral receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor which has shown activity in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. There is no data regarding the side effects of combination of radiotherapy and Lapatinib. 40 female Wistar-albino rats (WAR) were divided into 4 groups

    Background Recent studies have shown a lower likelihood of locoregional recurrences in patients with a low 21-gene recurrence score (RS). In this single-institution study, we investigated whether there are any associations between different cutoff values of 21-gene RS, histopathological factors, and outcome in patients with long-term follow-up. Methods The study included 61 patients who had early-stage (I-II) clinically node-negative hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer and were tested with the 21-gene RS assay between February 2010 and February 2013. Demographic, clinicopathological, treatment, and outcome characteristics were analyzed. Results The median age was 48 years (range, 29-72 years). Patients with high histologic grade (HG), Ki-67 >= 25\%, or Ki-67 >= 30\% were more likely to have intermediate/high RS (>= 18). Based on the 21-gene RS assay, only 19 patients (31\%) received adjuvant chemotherapy. At a median follow-up of 112 months, 3 patients developed locoregional recurrences (4.9\%), which were treated with endocrine therapy alone. Among patients treated with endocrine treatment alone (n = 42), the following clinicopathological characteristics were not found to be significantly associated with 10-year locoregional recurrence free survival (LRRFS): age < 40 years, age < 50 years, high histological or nuclear grade, high Ki-67-scores (>= 15\%, >= 20\%, >= 25\%, >= 30\%), presence of lymphovascular invasion, luminal-A type, multifocality, lymph node positivity, tumor size more than 2 cm, RS >= 18, and RS > 11. However, patients with RS >= 16 had significantly poorer 10-year LRRFS compared to those with RS < 16 (75\% vs. 100\%, respectively
