The 8th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) prognostic staging system (PS) has been validated numerous times; however, the prognostic value of PS for breast cancer based on molecular subtype has rarely been explored. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of PS in Chinese patients with luminal B-like human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer.
