Breast cancer (BRCA) is a prevalent and aggressive disease. Despite various treatments being applied, significant number of patients continue to experience unfavorable prognoses. Accurate prognosis prediction in BRCA crucial for tailoring individualized treatment plans improving patient outcomes. Recent studies have highlighted the significance immune cell infiltration tumor microenvironment (TME), but predicting survival remains challenging due heterogeneity BRCA. The aim this study was thus produce an signature-based framework capable with
