Elia Seguí: Happy to have presented today at ESMO Breast 2025 our work on TLS in breast cancer

Elia Seguí, Research Fellow – Breast Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, shared on LinkedIn:

“Super happy to have presented today at ESMO Breast 2025 our work on tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in breast cancer!

  • The role of B cells is gaining momentum in cancer immunology, and TLS are emerging as key players in the tumor microenvironment—driving adaptive antitumor immune responses.
  • Over the past few years, Esther Sanfeliu has been deeply focused on TLS and has developed a novel H&E-based scoring system that accounts for both TLS maturity (presence of a germinal center) and TLS count in the stroma.
  • Gene expression analysis revealed a continuous immune activation gradient, with increasing B-cell and T-cell activation across TLS categories.
  • This H&E-based scoring system enables structured TLS assessment and might provide biological insights beyond TILs.

A collaboration between, Hospital Clínic of Barcelona, the August Pi i Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS), SOLTI cancer research and Reveal Genomics, S.L.

Huge thanks to all the coauthors who made this work possible.”
