Summary

The goal of this systematic review is to assess the effectiveness of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and Trastuzumab in achieving pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* What is the overall rate of pathological complete response (pCR) in HER2-positive breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and Trastuzumab?
* Are there any variations in the definition of pCR among the included trials?

Participants in the selected clinical trials were HER2-positive breast cancer patients with non-metastatic operable, locally advanced, or inflammatory breast cancer. The main tasks participants were asked to do and the treatments they received are as follows:

* Undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy: Participants received chemotherapy treatment before their primary surgery.
* Receive Trastuzumab: Participants were administered Trastuzumab, a targeted therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer.

Researchers would compare the group of participants receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy and Trastuzumab to other groups, if present, to see if there are differences in the rates of pathological complete response (pCR) or other effects.
