Furthermore, considering TILs/NDRG1 co-expression in the BC group we observed that the patients with low TILs/high NDRG1 tumors had a worse DFS with respect to the other phenotypes considered (p = 0.0096; Fig. 3F) and we observed the same trend in the TNBCs group, although without statistical significance (data not shown). Here, NDRG1 is linked to breast cancer.
