Abstract

Breast cancer is the most common cancer, with the highest mortality rate and the most diagnosed cancer type in women worldwide. To identify the effect innate immune checkpoint for breast cancer immunotherapy, the innate immune prognostic biomarkers were selected through the ICI score model and the risk model in breast cancer patients. Moreover, the reliability and accuracy of the ICI score model and the risk model were further examined through the analysis of breast cancer prognosis and immune cell infiltration. The pan cancer analysis further confirmed and selected CXCL9 as the key innate immune checkpoint for breast cancer immunotherapy and identified three small molecular drugs for target CXCL9 through molecular docking analysis. In summary, CXCL9 significantly correlated with the prognostic of breast cancer and immune cell infiltration and could be innate immune checkpoint for breast cancer immunotherapy.
