Key clinical point: Compared with mastectomy, breast-conserving surgery (BCS) led to comparable locoregional recurrence (LRR; the first relapse site) events along with improved survival outcomes in patients with early-stage node-negative triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Major finding: BCS vs mastectomy following neoadjuvant chemotherapy did not increase LRR (P = .5209) and was significantly associated with improved disease-free survival (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.51; P < .001) and overall survival (aHR 0.43; P < .001). Absence of pathologic complete response was the only determinant for worsened LRR risk (HR 2.22; P = .001).
Study details: This retrospective analysis of eight prospective trials included 1074 neoadjuvant chemotherapy-treated patients with early-stage node-negative TNBC and available surgery data.
