Of note, a recent study (based on microarray datasets comprising >7000 BC patients, as well as prospective data from the BIG 2–98 repository [52]) demonstrated that overexpression of heparanase in BC tumors was associated with worse outcome/increased risk of recurrence in luminal (ER+) subtypes, but did not affect outcome/risk in non-luminal (ER−) subtypes [52]. The gene discussed is HPSE; the disease is breast cancer.
