There is limited evidence of phenolic compounds acting as protective agents on several cancer types, including breast cancer (BC). Nevertheless, some polyphenol classes have not been investigated and there is a lack of studies assessing the effect on menopausal status and hormone receptor status as influenced by these compounds. The objective of this study is to evaluate the association between the intake of all polyphenol classes in relation to the BC risk by menopausal and hormone receptor status. We used data from a population-based multi-case-control study (MCC-Spain) including 1472 BC cases and 1577 controls from 12 different regions of Spain. The odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CI were calculated using logistic regression of mixed effects by quartiles and log2 of polyphenol intakes (adjusted for the residual method) of overall BC, menopausal and receptor status. No associations were found between total intake of polyphenols and BC risk. However, inverse associations were found between stilbenes and all BC risk (ORQ4 vs. Q1: 0.70, 95%CI: 0.56–0.89, Ptrend = 0.001), the consumption of hydroxybenzaldehydes (ORQ4 vs. Q1: 0.75, 95%CI: 0.59–0.93, Ptrend = 0.012) and hydroxycoumarins (ORQ4 vs. Q1: 0.73, 95%CI: 0.57–0.93; Ptrend = 0.005) were also inversely associated. The intake of stilbenes, hydroxybenzaldehydes and hydroxycoumarins can contribute to BC reduction risk on all menopausal and receptor statuses.

e12573 Background: Breast cancer heterogeneity is thought to be associated with adverse outcomes. Dynamic molecular imaging modalities, including PET, permit 4-D sampling of tumor biologic properties and can therefore capture functional heterogeneity revealed by the temporal dimension of the dynamic tracer uptake. With the goal of improved non-invasive characterization of in vivo tumor biology, we have developed and tested a novel radiomic biomarker that characterizes 4-D functional tumor heterogeneity (FTH). We hypothesize subclonal populations are spatially contiguous regions of shared physiologic behavior that drive breast cancer heterogeneity and can be quantified. We describe an initial application of this approach to FDG PET imaging of breast cancer. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from a study of 50 patients with locally advanced breast cancer. Patients underwent 60-minute dynamic FDG PET over the chest prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and breast surgery and were followed for disease recurrence (DFS). A 3-D region bounding each tumor was identified by a radiologist and a novel Markov Random Field based 4-D segmentation paradigm segmented each tumor into three spatially constrained sub-regions with distinct time activity curve dynamics. From each tumor, an FTH imaging signature was extracted characterizing cluster compactness and separation. FTH imaging signatures were z-score normalized across all patients. Time-to-event analysis was used to assess the prognostic value of the FTH imaging signatures in predicting DFS. Discriminatory capacity compared to a baseline model of established prognostic factors (age, hormone receptor status, baseline tumor size) and standard PET uptake and kinetics markers (SUV, K1, and Ki) shown to be predictive of DFS (Dunnwald, J Clin Oncol 26:4449, 2008) was evaluated using the c-statistic and the log-likelihood statistical test. Results: 17 of 50 women (34%) had recurrence events. Adding FTH imaging signatures to the baseline model of age, baseline tumor size, and hormone receptor status improved a cross validated c-statistic from 0.51 to 0.74 (p < 0.05), and demonstrated higher discriminatory capacity over a model of age, tumor size, hormone receptor status, and standard PET measures (c-statistic = 0.59). Conclusions: Imaging biomarkers of 4-D metabolic tumor heterogeneity may add prognostic value in predicting recurrence-free survival in breast cancer and merit further study.
