Relationship of different HR combination subgroups and OS in the HER-2 negative series (Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test) Legend: The four different HR combinations were significantly different from the OS of the HER-2 negative patients (log-rank, P < 0.001). Among HER-2-negative patients, patients with ER-/PR + phenotype had the worst prognosis, but it was not significantly different from that of patients with ER-/PR- phenotype (P = 0.899), and patients with ER + /PR + phenotype had the best prognosis and the lowest risk. The prognosis of patients with ER + /PR- phenotype was located in the middle of the ER + /PR + phenotype (the best outcome) and ER-/PR + phenotype (the worst outcome) between them (P < 0.001). Abbreviation: ER, estrogen receptor; PR, progesterone receptor; HER-2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2
