Abstract
Representing 15% to 20% of all invasive breast cancers, adjuvant systemic treatment for early-stage, high-risk triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is preferentially done in the neoadjuvant setting based on a chemotherapy backbone of anthracyclines and taxanes. Pathological complete response to neoadjuvant treatment constitutes the main objective, regarding its correlation with oncological outcomes. The optimal neoadjuvant regimen to achieve the highest rates of pathological complete response is still under investigation, with the increasing knowledge on the molecular pathways, genomic sequencing, and immunological profile of TNBC allowing for the development of a wide array of new therapeutic options. This review aims to summarize the current evidence and ongoing clinical trials of new therapeutic options for the neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC patients.
期刊介绍:
Breast Cancer: Basic and Clinical Research is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, journal which considers manuscripts on all areas of breast cancer research and treatment. We welcome original research, short notes, case studies and review articles related to breast cancer-related research. Specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to, breast cancer sub types, pathobiology, metastasis, genetics and epigenetics, mammary gland biology, breast cancer models, prevention, detection, therapy and clinical interventions, and epidemiology and population genetics.
