Summary
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is now widely used in the management of locally advanced breast cancer and in patients with relatively large tumors who are interested in breast conservation. Patients who do not have a complete pathologic complete response typically have poorer outcomes compared with patients with a pCR [Rastogi P et al. J Clin Oncol 2008]. This article presents molecular profiling data on residual triple-negative breast cancer after NACT.
