This study is a single-center, open-label, prospective, clinical cohort study. It enrolled patients in three subgroups: triple negative, HR+HER2-, or HR-HER2+ subtypes, who will receive neoadjuvant treatment according to guidelines. Patients in each subgroup will be divided into two categories: those responsive to neoadjuvant therapy and those resistant to it, based on the efficacy of the treatment. Tumor tissue samples from all enrolled patients before and after neoadjuvant therapy will be collected. We will explore transcriptomic differences in neoadjuvant therapy responders or resisters under the same treatment regimen, as well as transcriptomic changes in tumor tissue before and after treatment, based on single-cell sequencing and spatial transcriptomic technology.
This single-center, open, prospective, clinical cohort study plan recruited 71 patients with three subtypes of breast cancer: triple-negative type, HR+HER2-, and HR-HER2+. Based on the basic conditions of the enrolled patients, such as tumor stage, pathological classification, expression levels of tumor biomarkers, age and economic status of the patients, treatment plans suitable for the patients were formulated by referring to the recommended treatment methods for each subtype of breast cancer clearly stated in the 2023 edition of the CSCO Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines. Patients with triple-negative breast cancer: Group A received neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with anti-PD1 immunotherapy (T-EC regimen combined with anti-PD1 treatment), Group B received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (T-EC regimen), and Group C received neoadjuvant anti-PD1 immunotherapy (patients explicitly refused chemotherapy). Based on the evaluation results of imaging efficacy before and after neoadjuvant therapy, patients in groups A and B were divided into two subgroups: treatment response and treatment resistance. Among them, 6 cases were selected from each of the two subgroups in group A for single-cell sequencing analysis. In Group B, 3 cases were selected from each of the two subgroups for single-cell sequencing analysis; Group C was expected to have a smaller population and no distinction was made regarding the therapeutic effect. Three cases were selected for single-cell sequencing analysis. Patients with HER2+HR- breast cancer: Group A received neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with trastuzumab plus pertuzumab targeted therapy (EC-THP regimen), and Group B received neoadjuvant trastuzumab plus pertuzumab targeted therapy (HP regimen) (patients explicitly refused chemotherapy). Based on the preoperative imaging efficacy evaluation results of the patients in each treatment group, the patients were divided into two subgroups: treatment response and treatment resistance. Among them, 3 cases were selected from each of the two subgroups in group A for single-cell sequencing analysis, and 3 cases were selected from each of the two subgroups in Group B for single-cell sequencing analysis. Patients with HER2-HR+ breast cancer: Group A received neoadjuvant aromatase inhibitor combined with CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment (AI+CDK4/6i regimen), and Group B received neoadjuvant aromatase inhibitor treatment (AI monotherapy regimen). Based on the preoperative imaging efficacy evaluation results of the patients in each treatment group, the patients were divided into two subgroups: treatment response and treatment resistance. Three cases were selected from each subgroup of Group A and Group B for single-cell sequencing analysis.

| RECIST1.1 Evaluates clinical efficacy | At the end of neoadjuvant therapy, based on the preoperative MRI imaging results, the clinical efficacy was evaluated according to the Response Evaluation Criteria (RECIST1.1) for Solid tumors: complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) or disease progression (PD). The efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy was set as the primary endpoint of the study. | At 24 weeks |

| residual cancer burden(RCB) | The RCB score proposed by MD Anderson Cancer Center is a scoring standard based on the pathological specimens of the tumor bed and regional lymph nodes after breast cancer surgery and the results of microscopic sections. The RCB score and classification can be obtained using a calculator. This score comprehensively analyzed the two-dimensional size of the maximum residual tumor bed, the proportion of tumor cells and in situ cancer cells, as well as the number of positive lymph nodes and tumor metastasis. By adjusting the above variables and combining them with weighting factors, a continuous scoring method was formed to predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients with NACT. Among them, the maximum residual tumor bed is defined as the area where tumor cells are distributed under the microscope, while the cytological characteristics of breast cancer are obtained by evaluating the proportion of tumor cells and in situ cancer cells in the maximum tumor bed through microscopic sections |
