Abstract 14P
Background
Classification of molecular subtypes of breast cancer is widely used in clinical decision-making, leading to different treatment responses and clinical outcomes. We classified molecular subtypes using a novel deep learning algorithm in whole-slide histopathological images (WSIs) with invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast.
Methods
We obtained 1,094 breast cancer cases with available hematoxylin and eosin-stained WSIs from the TCGA database. We applied a new deep learning algorithm for artificial neural networks (ANNs) that is completely different from the back-propagation method developed in previous studies.
Results
Our model based on the ANN algorithm had an accuracy of 67.8% for all datasets (training and testing), and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.819 when classifying molecular subtypes of breast cancer. In approximately 30% of cases, the molecular subtype did not reflect the unique histological subtype, which lowered the accuracy. The set revealed relatively high sensitivity (70.5%) and specificity (84.4%).
Conclusions
Our approach involving this ANN model has favorable diagnostic performance for molecular classification of breast cancer based on WSIs and could provide reliable results for planning treatment strategies.
