Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and side effects of docetaxel combined with epirubicin dose-dense regimen and convention regimen neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with triple negative breast cancer.Methods Eighty-one patients with triple negative breast cancer from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2011 were selected, and they were divided into dose-dense group (40 cases)and convention group(41 cases).All the patients received 2-6 cycles of docetaxel combined with epirubicin neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Chemotherapy scheme was intravenous drip of docetaxel (75 mg/m2)for 1 h and intravenous drip of epirubicin(90 mg/m2)in Day 1.Every 14 d was 1 cycle in dose-dense group,every 21 d was 1 cycle in convention group.The clinical efficacy and side effects of 2 groups were observed and compared, and the 5-year survival rates were analyzed.Results All patients were evaluated.The pathologic complete response rate and the response rate in dose-dense group were significantly higher than those in convention group:20.0%(8/40)vs.12.2%(5/41)and 85.0%(34/40)vs.70.7%(29/41),and there were statistical differences(P<0.05).The 5 years disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate in dose-dense group were higher than those in convention group: 77.5%(31/40)vs.58.5%(24/41)and 87.5%(35/40)vs.73.2%(30/41),and there were statistical differences(P<0.05).In side effects, there were no statistical differences in the incidences of bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal reactions, abnormal liver function and hair loss between 2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions In the neoadjuvant chemotherapy of triple negative breast cancer, compared with convention regimen, the dose-dense regimen can receive higher pathologic complete response rate and response rate,prolong disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate.Side effects is similar,and it is worth to be used in clinic.
