Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has emerged as a promising strategy to downstage tumors and\u0000increase the feasibility of breast conservation surgery (BCS), thus improving patient outcomes. This prospective observational study aimed to\u0000comprehensively investigate the clinical characteristics of LABC patients and evaluate the impact of NACT on tumor downstaging and the\u0000feasibility of BCS. Methods:Atotal of 100 consecutive female LABC patients (Stage III) aged 25 to 70 years were enrolled in the study. Clinical\u0000and histopathological data were collected, including age, menstrual status, family history, symptom duration, tumor characteristics, and receptor\u0000status. NACT regimens were administered as per institutional protocols. Tumor and axillary lymph node size changes were measured, and clinical\u0000responses were evaluated using RECIST 1.1 criteria. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software. Results: The study population\u0000exhibited a mean age of 49.43 years, with 61% of patients being premenopausal. The predominant histopathological subtype was invasive ductal\u0000carcinoma (91%), and common receptor statuses included ER+ PR+ HER2- (29%) and triple-negative (28%). Post-NACT, 82% of patients\u0000exhibited a partial response, while 10% achieved a complete response.
