BREAST CANCER OUTCOME PROGNOSIS BASED ON BLOOD SERUM BIOCHEMICAL INDICES

EE “Vitebsk State Medical University”

Objectives. To evaluate the prognostic significance of the serum biochemical indices in patients with breast cancer.
Methods. To design the model 162 patients suffering from the breast cancer have been examined, 12 of them with the cured breast cancer for more than 5 years were under the dispensary supervision; 9 females with benign hyperplastic breast diseases and 18 healthy women of corresponding age. The results of the 5-year survival prognosis were verified in the group consisting of 44 patients.
Results. To refer the patient to one of the prognostic groups one suggests to use the interpretation of the mathematics analysis of the complex of the blood serum biochemical indices, including autocrine motility factor (AMF), concentration of high density lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL CHOL), relative concentration of arachidonic acid (C20:4), stearic acid (C18:0), concentration of general serum cholesterol (CHOL). For prognosis two discriminant functions (DF1 and DF2) were calculated with further reference of a patient to one of the risk groups. 5-year survival prognosis after diagnosis has been made for the patients of the 1st risk group composes 79,8±5,5%, for the patients of the 2 risk group – 50,8±7,4%, for the patients of the 3 risk group – 10,4±5,6%.
A simplified method includes stratification of risk of hematogenic metastasis based on interpretation of AMF activity.
Conclusions. The performed research let to propose a new method for prognosis of breast cancer outcome and to reveal heterogeneity in clinically homogenous groups as well as to suggest the method to prognosticate the breast cancer outcome.
