Abstract
e12578Background: Chemotherapy regimens that contain both antracyclines and taxanes have been shown to increase disease free and overall survivals in patients with operable breast cancer patients. For node-positive patient group, sequential antracycline+cyclophosphamide (AC) and taxane regimen improved disease free survival (DFS) when compared with concurrent doxorubisin, cyclophosphamide and docetaxel (TAC) combination. To our knowledge, there is no data regarding the difference in between these regimens for the molecular subtypes of breast cancer. In this study we aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients who had received adjuvant TAC versus AC followed by paclitaxel chemotherapy regimens. Methods: The files of TNBC patients were reviewed retrospectively and the demographical and clinicopathological properties of the patients and tumors were noted. The patients who had taken AC followed by paclitaxel or TAC regimens in adjuvant setting were identified and ov...
