Background This retrospective study investigated the therapeutic benefit of adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) in breast cancer patients with hormone receptor (HR) status change from positive to negative after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). Methods From December 2000 to November 2010, 97 eligible patients with a positive-to-negative switch of HR status after NAC were identified. All patients were categorized into 2 groups on the basis of the administration of ET: 57 ET-administered patients and 40 ET-naïve patients. Survival analyses were performed to examine the prognostic value of ET administration as well as other clinical and pathologic variables. Results The administration of ET was significantly associated with improved disease-free survival (p=0.018) in patients with a positive-to-negative switch of HR status. The 5-year disease-free survival rates were 77.0% and 55.5%, respectively, in ET-administered patients and ET-naïve patients. The 5-year overall survival rate for ET-administered patients was also higher than that of ET-naïve patients (81.3% vs. 72.7%, p=0.053), albeit this was statistically insignificant. Conclusions This study revealed that patients with HR altered from positive to negative after NAC still benefit from ET. The HR status should be evaluated not only in specimens obtained during post-NAC surgery but also in specimens biopsied before NAC.

Abstract Background: The impact of the neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) on the survival outcomes of patients with early-stage breast cancer is controversial. Methods: We reviewed a series of 115 breast cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical treatment. The NLR was calculated using a blood sample obtained before neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The relationships of disease-free survival with the NLR as well as other clinicopathological factors were assessed.Results: There was no significant association between the NLR and disease-free survival in these patients. On the other hand, negative estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor statuses, extended nodal involvement, and advanced TNM stage were significant predictors of shorter disease-free survival.Conclusions: The NLR has little impact on the survival of early-stage breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical treatment.
