%X Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women worldwide, and underlying mechanistic pathways associated with breast cancer-specific and non-breast cancer-related deaths are of importance. Emerging evidence suggests a role of oxysterols, derivates of cholesterol, in multiple chronic diseases including breast cancer and coronary artery diseases. However, associations between oxysterols and survival have been minimally studied in women diagnosed with breast cancer. In this large breast cancer patient cohort, we evaluated associations between a panel of circulating oxysterols and mortality and recurrence outcomes.Concentrations of 13 circulating oxysterols representing different pathways of cholesterol metabolism were quantified using liquid-chromatography mass-spectrometry. Associations between baseline levels of oxysterols and cause-specific mortality outcomes and recurrence following a breast cancer diagnosis were assessed in 2282 women from the MARIE study over a median follow-up time of 11 years. We calculated hazard ratios (HR) and 95
