Pathological Complete Response Rate in Locally Advanced Breast Cancer With FEC, EC-T, or TC as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

The trial is designed to compare effectiveness between anthracycline and/or taxane as neoadjuvant chemotherapy for operable advanced breast cancer in different molecular typing. In this trial the investigators will randomly assign 200 primary breast cancer patients to receive six cycles of fluorourcil, epirubicin,and cyclophosphamide(FEC), or four cycles of epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (EC) followed by four cycles of docetaxel(T), or six cycles of docetaxel and cyclophosphamide (TC). Trasuzumab was recommended combining docetaxel to patients if HER-2 positive.The effectiveness of therapy will be estimated after every two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Surgery will be performed after completing designated full cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is to assess pathologic complete response (pCR, ypT0/is ypN0) rate in different regiments. The secondary endpoint is to assess the relationship between pCR rate with molecular typing in different regiments, so that the investigators could optimize neoadjuvant chemotherapy regiment according to molecular typing.
