  • Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Meta-Analysis

    ObjectiveTo explore expression of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) in triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC). Method The published articles about expression of EGFR in TNBC according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria from PubMed, Elsevier-Science Direct, and Web of Science databases were retrieved. The meta-analysis was performed with RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 8 articles were eligible for the meta-analysis. Among them, 1 006 patients in the TNBC group and 2 945 cases in the non-TNBC group. The result of meta-analysis showed that the positive rate of EGFR expression in the TNBC group was significantly higher than that in the non-TNBC group(OR=6.57, 95% CI 3.42-12.61, P < 0.000 01). The result of race subgroup analysis showed that the positive rate of EGFR expression of TNBC patients in Caucasian(OR=8.93, 95% CI 4.16-19.17, P < 0.000 01) or Xanthoderm(OR=2.79, 95% CI 0.99-7.89, P=0.05) was significantly increased as compared with non-TNBC patients. ConclusionThe positive rate of EGFR expression in TNBC patients is higher than that of non-TNBC patients, which might become an important marker of TNBC and an effective therapeutic target.
