  2. BCT in LABC not a standard procedure • Strategies being evolved

  3. Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NACT) • Heralded as future of breast cancer treatment. (NSABP18 and EORTC trials) • FAC/Anthracycline related groupsPositive tumor responseDown staged tumorMastectomy / BCT No survival benefit

  4. Fact Need for Mastectomy reduced Clinical response important predictor of response p CR of primary and nodes predicts outcome Does not offer survival benefit Does not increase risk of local recurrence Level of evidence Level I Level I Level I Level I Level II NACT- facts

  5. Sequence in LABC • Neoadjuvant chemotherapy • Locoregional surgery – Mastectomy / BCT • Completion chemotherapy • Locoregional RT (?) • Tamoxifen if ER +ve

  6. BCT in LABC - the evidence • 120 patients LABC – non inflammatory • 4 courses of induction CT • Preoperative RT • 5th course of anthracycline (Le Rouge, Touboul et al. J.Radiation Oncology, biology and physics;2004: 59:1069-53)

  7. Evidence -contd • Mastectomy + AD – Residual tumor > 3 cm, central, bifocal – 49 • BCS + AD+ boost to excision site - Residual tumor < 3cm – 39 • Radiation to tumor bed -Complete clinical response / Partial response over 90% - 32

  8. Evidence outcome Conclusion : BCS feasible in LABC but associated with high local recurrence

  9. BCS in LABC High local recurrence • Clinical response vs Pathologic complete response. 80% - 15%.(Fischer et al , J.of Oncology.1998:16; 267-85) • Therapy induced tumor regression – patchy and not concentric • Volume of tissue resected smaller than volume of original tumor.Davidson and Morrow, J. National cancer institute. 2005: 97;159-60

  10. Pathological response 1. Complete response – (p CR) –no residual invasive cells in the breast and axillary contents 2. Partial response – (p PR) –less than 10 microscopic foci of invasive cells 3. No response –( p NR)- All other cases

  11. BCS in LABCStrategies to Improve outcome • Improve pathological response - concurrent chemoradiation - Taxanes – Single / Sequential • Dannenburg and Formenti trials Improvement of pathological response

  12. Predictors of therapeutic response • Dynamic MRI • Stereotactic localization of tumor margins • Molecular markersto choose chemotherapy - p53 negative – 5FU/ RT -HER -2 neu negative – Paclitaxel /RT

  13. Current recommendations for Surgery in LABC • Initial tumor size < 6 cm • Post NACT tumor size < 3 cm • Without extensive nodal disease(Le Rouge, Touboul et al. J.Radiation Oncology, biology and physics;2004: 59:1069-53)

  14. LABC - surgical optionsRecommendations of Tata Memorial Hospital • Complete response –Clinical/ mammogram Index Quadrantectomy+AD • Partial response –Radiological residual disease# BCT + AD# Simple mastectomy + AD • Static / Progressive disease # SM + AD # Reconstruction for skin cover # Post op radiation • Inoperability RT – reassess for excision

  15. Conclusions • Multimodal therapy - new hope for patients with LABCCaution with aggression !
