Similarly, a higher rate of pathologic response (pCR/RCB-I) was observed in H-NCT (7/11, 64 %), followed by NET group (5/9, 56 %), and NCT only group (1/7, 13 %) (p = 0.053)….We conclude that ER-/HER2+ and ER+/HER2-mucinous carcinomas of the breast show robust pathological response to neoadjuvant HER2 targeted and endocrine therapy, respectively. Our findings suggest that MC may show good response to endocrine therapy.
