This study investigated the prediction of breast cancer therapy response using multi-omic data and machine learning. Researchers collected clinical, digital pathology, genomic, and transcriptomic profiles from pre-treatment biopsies of 168 breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy with or without HER2-targeted therapy. They found that treatment response is influenced by the pre-treatment tumor ecosystem and developed machine learning models to predict response based on this multi-omic landscape. The models, validated on an independent cohort, showed good accuracy in predicting the degree of residual disease after therapy.
