Excerpt:
We prospectively studied stage II/III BC patients who were eligible for breast-conserving surgery. Patients received epirubicin and cyclophosphamide for 4 cycles, followed by another 4-cycle docetaxel, and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) positive patients were additionally treated with herceptin when using docetaxel (EC-T(H))....PIK3CA (48%) and TP53 (40%) mutations were enriched in patients not achieving pCR.
