Five-year disease-free survival (DFS) in African-American and Latina women with different levels of pAkt versus different types of breast cancer. Patients were grouped as low pAkt (median level of pAkt index of less than or equal to 36) (a) and high pAkt (median level of pAkt index of greater than 36) (b). Then Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare the 5-year DFS between patients with different subtypes of tumors: I, luminal A type of tumor (green); II, luminal B type of tumor (fuchsia); III, ER/PR^- and HER2⁺ tumor (blue); and IV, basal-like type of tumor (red). The differences between the curves were estimated by log-rank test, and a p value of less than or equal to 0.05 was considered statistically significant. ER, estrogen receptor; N.S., no statistical significance between the curves; PR, progesterone receptor.
