Historical Perspective of IBC
• The historical identification of IBC is important as a reminder of the acceptance of classic clinical criteria that differentiates the disease from other forms of locally advanced breast cancer
• 1814 – Sir Charles Bell described a grave prognosis associated with breast cancer when the following characteristics are present:• “when a purple color is on the skin over the tumor accompanied
by shooting pains it is a very unpropitious beginning”
• Lee and Tannenbaum (1924) – “inflammatory breast cancer”
IBC – A Distinct Subtype of Breast Cancer
Distinct subtype of breast cancer
• Definitive or pathologic diagnostic criteria do not exist
• “Clinical diagnosis” fraught with potential problems, both underestimating and overestimating the diagnosis
• Seer 2004-7: 2-yr BCS • IBC = 84%
• LABC = 91%• 43% higher risk of breast cancer death in IBC vs. LABC
• German study: 4.5x greater risk of dying within 5 years
Diessner Arch Gyn Obs 2015;292:655; Anderson WF, JCO 21:2254, 2003
IBC
LABC
• 1-5% incidence in US
• Difficulty in tracking the disease due to variation in diagnostic criteria over time
• Underestimate incidence
Clinical definition with confirmed breast cancer: Rapid onset – 3 – 6 mo
• Erythema > 1/3 breast
• Edema (peau d’orange)
• Often warm breast, pain
• Breast enlargement – often without a mass
• Highly metastatic:
35% metastasis at presentation
Clinical Presentation - IBC
Clinical Diagnosis of IBC
• Tumor emboli in dermal lymphatics without classical signs is not considered IBC
• The presence of dermal lymphatic invasion is not necessary for the diagnosis of IBC
“Trimodality” Therapy: Importance of pCR

Hypothesis:Can we limit the amount of chemotherapy and maximize the HER2-directed therapy in the treatment of HER2+ IBC ?
Angiogenesis and Lymphangiogenesis in IBC• IBC makes its own blood supply and
lymphatic supply throughout the breast
• Increased expression of angiogenesis related genes
• Increased expression of lymphangiogenesis related genes
• Is this “encircling lymphovasculogenesis” or lymphovascular invasion ?

• Eribulin effects on mice:• Improves blood flow to inside of tumor • Increased overall tumor blood flow • Changes in expression of genes for blood
vessel formation and cancer survival
• In IBC – investigate eribulin’s effect on tumor blood flow• Also investigate expression on genes for
blood vessel formation and cancer survival

Primary Systemic Therapy for IBC: Beginning the Journey
• IBC is inoperable at the time of diagnosis, therefore initial therapy with “systemic treatment” is indicated.
• IBC is relatively chemo-resistant, therefore identifying therapeutic targets is critical.
• We must focus our efforts on designing clinical trials specifically for IBC
• Inclusion of IBC patients into LABC trials will dilute the interpretation of outcome
• Incorporate translational components
• Identify biologic markers that confirm the diagnosis, not just rely on “clinical features” that are not consistent.
