PURPOSE There are sparse data on the outcome of patients with locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). This report is on the prognostic factors and long-term outcome from Cancer Institute, Chennai. METHODS This is an analysis of untreated patients with LABC (stages IIIA-C) who were treated from January 2006 to December 2013. RESULTS Of the 4,577 patients with breast cancer who were treated, 2,137 patients (47%) with LABC were included for analysis. The median follow-up was 75 months (range, 1-170 months), and 2.3% (n = 49) were lost to follow-up at 5 years. The initial treatment was neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiation (NACR) (77%), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (15%), or others (8%). Patients with triple-negative breast cancer had a pathologic complete response (PCR) of 41%. The 10-year overall survival was for stage IIIA (65.1%), stage IIIB (41.2%), and stage IIIC (26.7%). Recurrence of cancer was observed in 27% of patients (local 13% and distant 87%). Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a tumor size > 10 cm (hazard ratio [HR], 2.19; 95% CI, 1.62 to 2.98; P = .001), hormone receptor negativity (HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.22 to 1.72; P = .001), treatment modality (neoadjuvant chemotherapy, HR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.43 to 0.73; P = .001), lack of PCR (HR, 2.36; 95% CI, 1.85 to 3.02; P = .001), and the presence of lymphovascular invasion (HR, 1.97; 95% CI, 1.60 to 2.44; P = .001) had decreased overall survival. CONCLUSION NACR was feasible in inoperable LABC and gave satisfactory long-term survival. PCR was significantly higher in patients with triple-negative breast cancer. The tumor size > 10 cm was significantly associated with inferior survival. However, this report acknowledges the limitations inherent in experience of management of LABC from a single center.

Aim: This observational study evaluated the effectiveness of nab-paclitaxel versus paclitaxel monotherapy as first-line (1L) treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). Materials & methods: 200 patients from the US Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived database (mTNBC diagnosis, January 2011–October 2016) who received 1L nab-paclitaxel (n = 105) or paclitaxel (n = 95) monotherapy were included. Overall survival and time to next treatment were evaluated. Results: The adjusted overall survival hazard ratio was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.67–1.44), indicating a similar risk of death between groups. Adjusted time to next treatment hazard ratio was 0.89 (95% confidence interval: 0.62–1.29). Conclusion: Nab-paclitaxel and paclitaxel monotherapy showed similar efficacy, suggesting their interchangeability as 1L treatments for mTNBC.
