Summary

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a special type of breast cancer, endocrine therapy and targeted therapy are completely ineffective, chemotherapy is currently the only effective treatment. How to improve postoperative pathologic complete response（pCR）of neoadjuvant chemotherapy is critical problem to prolong event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of TNBC patients. Apatinib is a new oral small molecule tyrosine protease inhibitor, it is effective in inhibiting angiogenesis with a very low concentration. So the standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen of docetaxel and carboplatin combined with apatinib may improve the postoperative pCR and survival outcomes of TNBC patients. Safety and tolerability assessed by number of grade 3 and 4 toxicities and hospitalizations.

Conditions

  • Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Apatinib

All enrolled patients were administered oral apatinib at a dose of 250 mg once daily and intravenously docetaxel (100 mg/m2) every three weeks for four cycles, followed by epirubicin (90 mg/m2) plus cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) every three weeks for four cycles.
