Fig. 9. Evolution of molecular subtypes in TNBC from bulk RNA seq analysis to ST-derived spatial archetypes.

Fig. 9

Distribution of the five pre-existing TNBC molecular subtypes into different spatial archetypes in the ST TNBC (N = 94), METABRIC (N = 335) and SCAN-B (N = 672) cohorts. The molecular subtypes were defined from the ST global pseudobulk and from METABRIC and SCAN-B bulk transcriptomes. The main characteristics of each spatial archetype are summarized, highlighting the potential for precision medicine in TNBC with specific therapeutic strategies for each spatial archetype. Source data are provided as a Source Data file. ADC antibody-drug conjugate, BL basal-like, EMT epithelial-mesenchymal transition, ICB immune checkpoint blockade, IM immunomodulatory, LAR luminal androgen receptor, M mesenchymal, MSL mesenchymal stem-like, PARPi poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitor, SA spatial archetype, TLS tertiary lymphoid structures.
