Results: Based on data from the gene expression profile and clinical characteristics from 1310 breast cancer patients, including TCGA database and GEO database, we found that downstream targets of the cGAS-STING pathway, such as CXCL10, were upregulated in HRD tumors and could be used as a predictor of survival outcome in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. The gene discussed is CGAS; the disease is breast cancer.
