This study showed that both p-S118 and p-S167 were associated with several microenvironmental factors, including increased microvessel density. In particular, p-S167 was associated with reduced RFI and CSS in the whole cohort and RFI in luminal A and B tumours and could possibly be employed to predict response to kinase inhibitors.
