Abstract

Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer was used to downstaging tumours to facilitate breast-conserving surgery.

Methods: A descriptive retrospective study of 93 breast cancer patients at Da Nang Oncology Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019. Patients diagnosed with locally advanced breast cancer cT2-4N03M0. Exclude cases of Ductal carcinoma in situ from breast or previously treated.

Results: an average age of 48, an average tumor size of 6.0 cm, the majority were Invasive ductal carcinoma (97.8%) and grade 2 ( 85.6%). Hormon receptor positive in 57%, HER-2 positive in 38.7% and 18.3% triple negative Breast cancer. The combination chemotherapy regimen Anthacycline and Taxane accounted for 94.7%, Trastuzumab-based regimen accounted for 25%. There was 8.3% progression of disease during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. About Surgery: Breast- conserving surgery in 20.5%, Breast reconstruction in 6.8%, Mastectomy in 71.6%, Sentinel lymph node biopsy in 4.3%. Her2 status was significantly different between the groups with and without pCR.. Endocrine receptors are negative, Ki67 is high, and Triple negative has a higher rate of pCR but not statistically significant.

Conclusion: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy helps to downstaging tumours to facilitate breast-conserving surgery. Her2 status is correlated with the rate of complete pathological response (pCR).
