Key clinical point: In patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), adding capecitabine to classic anthracycline/taxane-based adjuvant chemotherapy improved overall survival (OS) and carboplatin/paclitaxel was the most effective regimen for improving disease-free survival (DFS).
Major finding: Adjuvant chemotherapy with anthracyclines/taxanes plus capecitabine vs anthracyclines significantly improved OS outcomes (hazard ratio [HR] 0.56; 95% CI 0.36-0.87; probability for ranking the first 29%), whereas carboplatin/paclitaxel vs anthracyclines was the best regimen for improving DFS outcomes (HR 0.51; 95% CI 0.30-0.86; probability for ranking the first 41%).
Study details: Findings are from a network meta-analysis of 27 randomized phase 3 trials that compared adjuvant chemotherapy regimens in patients with resected, stage I-III TNBC.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
