Background: Malignant pericardial effusion (MPE) is a common complication of advanced breast cancer (BRCA) and plays an important role in BRCA. This study is aims to construct a prognostic model based on MPE-related genes for predicting the prognosis of breast cancer. Methods: The BRCA samples are analyzed based on the expression of MPE-related genes by using an unsupervised cluster analysis method. This study processes the data by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and multivariate Cox analysis, and uses machine learning algorithms to construct BRCA prognostic model and develop web tool. Results: BRCA patients are classified into three clusters and a BRCA prognostic model is constructed containing 9 MPE-related genes. There are significant differences in signature pathways, immune infiltration, immunotherapy response and drug sensitivity testing between the high and low-risk groups. Of note, a web-based tool (http://wys.helyly.top/cox.html) is developed to predict overall survival as well as drug-therapy response of BRCA patients quickly and conveniently, which can provide a basis for clinicians to formulate individualized treatment plans. Conclusion: The MPE-related prognostic model developed in this study can be used as an effective tool for predicting the prognosis of BRCA and provides new insights for the diagnosis and treatment of BRCA patients.
