AbstractIntroduction: Concurrent anthracycline and taxane is an effective and efficient way to deliver neoadjuvant chemotherapy for HER2-negative breast cancers. Data on efficacy and tolerance to 6 cycles of concurrent docetaxel, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide (TEC) is limited. Method: All patients with HER2-negative breast cancers who received neoadjuvant TEC from January 2013 to December 2019 were reviewed. Results: A total of 71 patients [57 luminal B disease; 14 triple negative breast cancer (TNBC)] received neoadjuvant TEC with prophylactic granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). The pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 26.3% and 28.6% for luminal B and TNBC, respectively. With median follow-up of 48.9 months, 3 years disease-free survival was 85.9%, and 3 years overall survival was 89.6%. Non-hematological toxicities were common but the majority was grade 1 or 2. The most common grade 3 or 4 toxicity were hematological, including neutropenia (26.8%) and anemia (15.5%). There was no cardiotoxicity observed. Half of the patients had at least one dose reduction but all patients completed the planned 6 cycles and had breast surgery done. Conclusion: Six cycles of TEC with prophylactic G-CSF is an effective and tolerable neoadjuvant regime for HER2-negative breast cancers. Hematological toxicities were the most common toxicities. Although many patients required dose reduction, all patients completed treatment and there was no observed cardiotoxicity.
