Triple negative breast cancer - prognostic role of immune-related factors: a systematic review.

Immune-related factors have the potential as both prognostic and predictive biomarkers for new treatments targeting the immune system in breast cancer.

Also, differences between TNBC and other types of breast cancer may have implications for treatment and use of immune-related factors as biomarkers.
