Moreover, we identified increased mutation rates in DNA damage response molecules, including ARID1A, MSH6, and MLH1. The K-MASTER patients were mainly comprised of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and HER2-positive tumors, while the TCGA and MSK-IMPACT cohorts exhibited a predominance of hormone receptor-positive (HR +) subtype tumors. Here, MLH1 is linked to triple-negative breast carcinoma.
