Whole Genome Analysis Informs Breast Cancer Response to Aromatase Inhibition

Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Functional, Predictive, Prognostic
Justification: Oncogenic: The text describes multiple mutations in genes associated with cancer, including those in druggable tyrosine kinase domains, indicating their potential role in oncogenesis. Functional: The identification of mutations leading to functional inactivation of MAP3K1 and MAP2K4 suggests that these mutations affect the normal function of these genes, which are involved in critical signaling pathways. Predictive: The mention of mutations in druggable tyrosine kinase domains implies that these mutations may predict response to targeted therapies, as they are associated with specific cancer treatments. Prognostic: The correlation of mutation frequencies with clinical outcomes, such as the association of CDH1 mutations with lobular breast cancer, suggests that these mutations may have prognostic implications.
