To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest LA cohort of TNBC patients. Interestingly, the proportion of TNBC among Chileans was smaller compared to similar studies within LA. As expected, TNBC patients had poorer survival and higher risk for early recurrence versus non-TNBC. Other relevant findings include a higher proportion of premenopausal patients among TNBC. Also, mid/low-income patients that received medical attention at a community hospital displayed lower survival versus private health center counterparts.
