By analyzing gene expression data and clinical information from the TCGA database, we identified eight genes associated with prognosis. Through multivariate Cox regression analysis, we screened these genes and constructed a prognostic biomarker. The prognostic value of this biomarker was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves, and it was validated in the GSE42568 dataset. The results showed that patients with high-risk scores had poorer prognoses, with area under the curve (AUC) values for 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates being 0.667, 0.703, and 0.713, respectively. Through Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and immune landscape analysis, we found that the high-risk group was significantly enriched in cell cycle pathways and cysteine and methionine metabolism pathways, while the low-risk group was enriched in immune-related pathways. Additionally, the expression of immune checkpoint genes was lower in the high-risk group, consistent with poorer prognosis. Our study reveals the importance of CRGs in breast cancer prognosis and immunotherapy, providing new directions for future personalized treatment strategies.展开更多
