    Notes: Abstract Background: Stage IIIA,B breast cancer is commonly treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy because of high objective response rates and improved operability. Criteria for subsequent selection of local therapy—mastectomy, radiotherapy, or both—are not well defined. We adopted a policy of selective local therapy based on rebiopsy of the breast and clinical axillary lymph node status at the time of best response to chemotherapy. Methods: Between 1980 and 1993, 126 patients with stage IIIA,B breast cancer were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and definitive local therapy. The long-term incidence of locoregional failure (in-breast, chest wall, axilla, supraclavicular, neck), relapse-free survival, and overall survival was determined. Results: The overall clinical objective response rate to chemotherapy was 95.2%. Eighty-three patients underwent mastectomy, with negative margins achieved in 91.6%. Forty-two patients had breast preservation; the overall in-breast recurrence rate was 19.0% (8 of 42 patients). The overall locoregional recurrence rate by site was: chest wall—8.7% (11 of 126 patients), axilla—8.7% (11 of 126 patients), supraclavicular—5.6% (7 of 126 patients), and neck—4.0% (5 of 126 patients). The axillary recurrence rate was 6.6% (5 of 76 patients) for clinically negative axilla treated with radiotherapy only, and 12.0% (6 of 50 patients) for clinically positive axilla treated with surgery only. The overall long-term survival probabilities (6 years) according to stage were: stage IIIA—58.0%, stage IIIBnoninflam—58.0%, stage IIIBinflam—36.0%. Conclusions: These findings support a selective approach to local therapy in patients with stage IIIA,B breast cancer. This approach provides local control in most patients, and allows for breast preservation and elimination of axillary dissection in selected patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Quarante-trois malades qui présentaient un cancer du sein avancé (15 répondant au stade IIIA et 28 au stade IIIB) ont été traitées par chimiothérapie et chez 38 d'entre elles par hormonothérapie associée pour obtenir une involution tumorale avant de procéder au traitement local. Lorsque la réponse à ce traitement fut complété (CR) la radiothérapie fut associée à la chimiothérapie. Quand la réponse fut incomplète (PR = réponse partielle) ou négative (NC = pas de changement) l'intervention chirurgicale fut pratiquée et suivie d'une irradiation locale. Chez toutes les malades la chimiothérapie fut ensuite poursuivie pendant 6 mois. La chimiothérapie consista en l'administration de cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2; de doxorubicine 30 mg/m2 I.V. au jour 1; de tamoxifen: 40 mg/m2 P.O. les jours 2–6; de premarine 0.625 mg P.O. Q 12×3h à partir du 71ème jour, de méthotrexate: 300 mg/m2 I.V. suivi après 1 heure par du 5-fluorouracil 500 mg/m2 par voie I.V. au jour 8 et de leucovirine 10 mg/m2 P.O. Q 6h×6 commençant 24 h après le méthotrexate. Quarante-deux malades sur 43 purent être soumises à l'étude en ce qui concerne la réponse au traitement, le temps d'évolution et la survie. Le taux de la réponse à l'action des agents chimiques fut le suivant: involution complète, 50%; involution partielle, 40%; inefficacité 10%. Le nombre médian de cycles de chimiothérapie pour aboutir à ces résultats fut respectivement de 5,4 et 4. Dix-huit malades qui bénéficièrent d'une involution clinique tumorale complète furent soumises à des biopsies multiples (16) ou à une mastectomie (2). Quatorze malades (70%) ne présentaient aucune trace tumorale à l'examen histologique. Trente malades sur 42 qui ont été soumises au traitement combiné complet ne présentent à ce jour aucun signe d'évolution du processus tumoral. Les malades du stade IIIA n'ont pas montré de récidive. En revanche 7 cas de stade IIIB ont rechuté, 6 d'entre eux montrant des lésions inflammatoires à l'histologie. Pour chaque stade la survie médiane et le temps d'évolution n'ont pu être apprécié au cours de cette étude.
    Abstract: Resumen Cuarenta y tres pacientes con cáncer mamario localmente avanzado, 15 en estado IIIA y 28 en estado IIIB, recibieron quimioterapia primaria de inducción, incluyendo sincronización hormonal en 38 pacientes, hasta el logro de una respuesta clínica objetiva máxima antes de proceder con terapia local. Las pacientes que lograron una respuesta completa desde el punto de vista histológico (múltiples biopsias sobre el lugar de la lesión original) recibieron radioterapia, mientras las pacientes con enfermedad residual (respuesta parcial o ninguna respuesta) fueron sometidas a cirugía de “debultamiento” antes de iniciar la radioterapia; en la totalidad de las pacientes se administraron 6 meses adicionales de quimioterapia. La quimioterapia consistió en ciclofosfamida 500 mg/m2 y doxorubicina 30 mg/m2 I.V. el día 1; tamoxifén 40 mg/m2 PO en los días 2–6; premarina 0.625 mg PO q 12 horas × 3, comenzando en el día 7; metotrexato (mtx) 300 mg/m2 I.V. seguido una hora después de 5-fluoruracilo 500 mg/m2 I.V. el día 8 y leucovorin 10 mg/m2 PO q 6 horas × 6 comenzando 24 horas después del mtx. Cuarenta y dos pacientes son evaluables en relación a la respuesta lograda, al tiempo de progresión y a la supervivencia. La tasa de respuesta objetiva a la quimioterapia fue de 90% con 50% de respuesta completa, 40% de respuesta parcial y 10% de ninguna respuesta. El número promedio de ciclos de quimioterapia necesarios para lograr respuesta completa, respuesta parcial o ninguna respuesta fue de 5, 4, y 4 respectivamente. Dieciocho pacientes con respuesta completa a la quimioterapia fueron evaluadas mediante biopias múltiples (16 pacientes) o mastecomía (2 pacientes). Catorce (70%) demostraron respuesta completa desde el punto de vista histológico. Treinta pacientes han completado terapia combinada hasta el momento y todas se han convertido a un estado libre de enfermedad. Siete pacientes en estado IIIB han presentado recurrencia, 6 de ellas con histología de enfermedad tumoral inflamatoria. Ninguna paciente en estado IIIA ha presentado recurrencia. No se ha llegado todavía a determinar la supervivencia media ni el tiempo de progresión para ninguno de los estados.
    Notes: Abstract Forty-three patients with locally advanced breast cancer, 15 with stage IIIA and 28 with stage IIIB, received primary induction chemotherapy, including hormonal synchronization in 38 patients, to a maximum objective clinical response before proceeding to local therapy. Patients achieving a pathological complete response received radiation therapy, while patients with residual disease, partial response (PR), or no change (NC) status received debulking surgery prior to radiation therapy; in all patients, 6 additional months of chemotherapy were administered. Chemotherapy consisted of cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2 and doxorubicin 30 mg/m2 intravenously day 1; tamoxifen 40 mg/m2 orally days 2–6; premarin 0.625 mg orally every 12 hours 3 times beginning on day 7; methotrexate (mtx) 300 mg/m2 intravenously followed in 1 hour by 5-fluorouracil 500 mg/m2 intravenously day 8, and leucovorin 10 mg/m2 orally every 6 hours 6 times beginning 24 hours after mtx. Forty-two patients are evaluable with respect to response, time to progression, and survival. Objective response rate to chemotherapy was 90% with 50% CR, 40% PR, and 10% NC. Median number of cycles of chemotherapy to achieve a CR, PR, or NC was 5, 4, and 4 respectively. Eighteen patients with a CR to chemotherapy were assessed by multiple biopsies (16 patients) or mastectomy (2 patients). Fourteen patients (70%) were proven to be pathological complete responders. Thirty patients have completed combined therapy thus far and all have been rendered disease free. Seven stage IIIB patients have relapsed, 6 of them having inflammatory histological findings. No stage IIIA patients have relapsed. Median survival and time to progression have not been reached for either stage.
