One hundred and eighty three women with high risk of breast cancer identified in Baoding First Central Hospital from June 2007 to June 2014,were enrolled in the study.In these 183 cases,41 received preventive therapy (22.4%),142 did not.Factors associated with acceptance of chemoprevention included older age,menopause,comorbidities,lower level education,being married,higher BMI,having high level hyperplasia of ductal epthelia and counseling to breast specialists (P < O.05);whilenot informed by doctors was the main reason for failed taking preventive agents(95.1%,135/142).Thirteen of 41 women receiving chemoprevention discontinued the therapy (31.7%);no-insurance,no side-effects and higher BMI were related to the discontinuing (P < 0.05).The 1-,2-,3-,and 5-year adherence rates of chemoprevention was 86.1% (31/36),65.4% (17/26),59.1% (13/22),8/13 and 5/10,respectively.The results show that chemoprevention rate is low among Chinese women at high risk of breast cancer,and the long-term adherence to preventive therapy is poor.Corresponding measures should be taken to strengthen the chemoprevention of breast cancer.

Objective To compare the efficacy of trastuzumab plus pertuzumab(HP)combined with either nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin or docetaxel plus carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer in real-world clinical practice.Methods Clinical data of HER2-positive breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant therapy with either HP combined with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin or HP combined with docetaxel plus carboplatin and subsequently underwent surgery were retrospectively collected from 11 tertiary grade-A hospitals in Hebei Province from June 2019 to December 2021.The total pathological complete response(tpCR)rates of the two groups were compared.Results A total of 76 patients were included in the study,with 47 in the nab-paclitaxel group and 29 in the docetaxel group.The tpCR rate was significantly higher in the nab-paclitaxel group than that in the docetaxel group(72.3%vs.48.3%,χ2=4.463,P=0.035).Subgroup analysis indicated that patients older than 40 years,with cN2-3,cTNM stage Ⅲ,hormone receptor-positive status,and Ki67>30%had significantly higher tpCR rates in the nab-paclitaxel group than those in the docetaxel group(P<0.05).Conclusion In real-world clinical practice,the efficacy of HP combined with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer is superior to that of HP combined with docetaxel plus carboplatin.

Objective To compare the efficacy, safety, and survivability of TCbHP versus AC-THP in the neoadjuvant therapy of HER2-positive breast cancer in real-world. Methods Clinical data of patients with HER2 positive breast cancer, who have received TCbHP or AC-THP as neoadjuvant therapy and completed surgery in 11 third-class hospitals in various cities of Hebei Province, were retrospectively collected.The total pathological complete remission (tpCR) rate, the incidence of grade 3 or higher adverse reactions and the completion rate of the given approaches were compared. Results A total of 110 cases were collected, including 78 cases in the TCbHP group and 32 cases in the AC-THP group.The tpCR rate of the TCbHP group was higher than that of the AC-THP group, but the difference was not statistically significant (64.10%

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with trastuzumab and pertuzumab combined with taxane and platinum drugs (TCbHP) regimen for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of HER2-positive breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant therapy with 21-day TCbHP regimen and completed subsequent surgery in 11 tertiary-level hospitals in Hebei Province from June 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the total pathological complete remission (tpCR) rate, the incidence of grade ≥3 adverse events, and the completion rate of the established regimen were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 78 female patients were included and the median age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 54.0 years (48.5 years, 57.5 years). The tpCR rate was 64.1% (50/78). Subgroup analysis showed that the tpCR rate in the HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC)+++ group was higher than that in the HER2 IHC++ and fluorescence in situ hybridization-positive group [68.6% (48/70) vs. 25.0% (2/8)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.18, P = 0.041); the tpCR rate in the hormone-receptor negative group was higher than that in the hormone-receptor positive group [81.8% (27/33) vs. 51.1% (23/45)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 7.80, P = 0.005); the tpCR rate in the albumin-bound paclitaxel group was higher than that in the docetaxel group [72.3% (34/47) vs. 48.3% (14/29)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.46, P = 0.035). The incidence of ≥ grade 3 adverse reactions was 12.8% (10/78) in 78 patients, and the completion rate of the established regimen was 92.3% (72/78). Conclusions:Neoadjuvant therapy with TCbHP regimen for HER2-positive breast cancer shows a definite efficacy, good safety and tolerance.
