Folate Receptor Alpha Expression Is Associated With Increased Risk of Recurrence in Triple-negative Breast Cancer

We found a lower incidence of FOLR1 expression in TNBC compared with other studies; however, these patients may benefit from anti-folate therapy as other targeted therapies are not available. Although no correlation between FOLR1 expression and standard clinicopathologic parameters was identified, our findings suggest that FOLR1 expression is prognostically significant in TNBC.
