Results: Overall survival was 83.6%. Disease-free survial was 75.6%. DFS and OS are inversely proportional to tumor size, the number of metastatic lymph nodes, ER and/PR positive have a better prognosis than ER/PR negative, stage II disease have better prognosis than stage IIIA (p<0.05). Toxicities of AC+4T: Leukopenia in 64.1% of patients, with 10,1% was grade 3, 4. Neutropenia in 61.5% of patients, with 7,6% was grade 3, 4. Hypopigmentation in 51.3% of patients, with 7,6% was grade 3, 4. Thrombocytopenia in 17.9% of patients. Transaminase elevation in 43.6% of patients, no seen grade 3, 4. Increased blood creatinine was only recorded at grade 1 at 5.1%. Vomiting and nausea 87%, stomatitis 30.8%, diarrhea 38.4%, muscle pain 87%, peripheral neuropathy 74.4% peripheral edema 38.5%.
