This is a multicenter, prospective, non-interventional study on the prevalence of germline pathogenic BRCA1/2 mutation (Blood) and somatic pathogenic BRCA1/2 mutation (Tissue, optional) in patients with HER2-negative unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
1. For the assessment of germline mutational status of BRCA1 and BRCA2, (1)Collect peripheral blood from each subject. (2) Extract DNA from the collected blood. (3)From the extracted DNA, germline BRCA1/2 mutational status will be assessed by next generation sequencing(NGS) using NGeneBioBRCAaccuTest®
2. For the assessment of somatic mutational status of BRCA1 and BRCA2, (1)Collect FFPE from about 100 subjects. (2) Extract DNA from the FFPE. (3)From the extracted DNA, somatic BRCA1/2 mutational status will be assessed by next generation sequencing(NGS) using NGeneBioBRCAaccuTest®
3. Collect variables on the patients and compare clinical outcomes (Overall survival, Invasive Disease-free survival, Distant Disease-free survival, Progression free survival) that can be affected by clinicopathologic characteristics and type of treatment.
