Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy of epirubicin plus paclitaxel was administered to 23 patients with locally advanced breast cancer (including 13 cases of stage IIb, 6 of stage IIIa, and 4 of stage IIIb). All patients were female. They were treated with epirubicin 60 mg/m2, on day 1, by i.v. followed paclitaxel 150 mg/m2 by 3 hours continuous infusion on day 2 and every 3 weeks repeatedly. Premedication with dexamethasone, ondansetron, diphenhydramine and cimetidine were administered to prevent gastroenteric and allergic reactions before chemotherapy. Two to 4 cycles were used. Ten out of 23 patients had a complete response, 10 had partial response, and 3 had no change. The response rate was 87% (20/23). Six out of 23 patients underwent breast conserving surgery as tumor size had become smaller and downstaging was realized after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. The major toxicities included neutropenia, myalgia, arthralgia, nephrotoxicity, gastroenteric reactions, alopecia and flushing to the face. However, these were well tolerated in these patients.  相似文献

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy of epirubicin plus paclitaxel was administered to 75 patients (including a 2-cycle group of 39 patients and a 4-cycle group of 36 patients) with locally advanced breast cancer (35 cases of stage IIb, 28 of stage IIIa, 12 of stage IIIb) to compare efficacy and toxicity of 2 cycle and 4 cycle regimens. All patients were female. They were treated with epirubicin 60 mg/m2, on day 1, by i.v., followed by paclitaxel 150 mg/m2, by 3 hour continuous infusion on day 2 repeated every 3 weeks. Premedication with dexamethasone, ondansetron, diphenhydramine and cimetidine were administered to prevent gastroenteritic and allergic reactions before chemotherapy. Thirty-nine patients were given 2 cycles and thirty-six were given 4 cycles of this regimen. One of 39 patients had complete response, 28 had partial response and 10 had no change in the 2-cycle group. In addition, 21 of 36 patients had complete response (including 9 who had pathologic complete response), 13 had partial response and 2 had no change. The response rates were 74% (29/39) in the 2-cycle group and 94% (34/36) in the 4-cycle group. There were no progressive disease in these 2 groups. However a higher proportion of PR was observed in stage II patients than in stage III patients. Twelve of 36 patients underwent breast conserving surgery, as tumor size had become smaller and down-staging was realized after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In addition, axillary lymph nodes were palpable in all 75 patients before neoadjuvant chemotherapy with the ET regimen. But 46% (18/39) in the 2-cycle group and 75% (27/36) in the 4-cycle group became impalpable. Conversely, major toxicities (including leukopenia and gastroenteric reactions) were similar in both groups, but myalgia, arthralgia, neurotoxicity and alopecia were more severe in the 4-cycle group than in the 2-cycle group. In the present study, neoadjuvant chemotherapy with a 4-cycle ET regimen was more effective than with a 2-cycle regimen in down staging locally advanced breast cancer. Although major toxicities were more severe in the 4-cycle group than in the 2-cycle group, the regimen was tolerable and safe.  相似文献

AIMS AND BACKGROUND: To evaluate feasibility and efficacy of paclitaxel as a single agent or in combination with epirubicin in breast cancer taxane-naive patients who have failed previous high-dose chemotherapy. METHODS: Since February 1995, we have treated 32 patients in first relapse or progression after high-dose chemotherapy. Nineteen patients had metastatic breast cancer, 12 more than 3 involved axillary lymph nodes, and 1 inflammatory breast cancer at inclusion to the program. The median time to relapse after high-dose chemotherapy was 12 months (range, 2-43). At relapse, 12 patients were treated with epirubicin (90 mg/m2) plus paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) administered on day 1 every 21 days. In 20 patients who had previously received more than 350 mg/m2 of a cumulative dose of epirubicin and in one patient pretreated with chemotherapy containing mitoxantrone, we employed paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) alone. A median number of five courses was administered (range, 2-10). RESULTS: The overall response rate after 3 courses (29 of 32 patients were assessable) was 55% and after 6 courses (21 of 32 patients were assessable) was 57%. The median time to progression was 7 months (95% CI, 5.7-9.2), and median survival was 27.5 months (95% CI, 17.8-37.0). Toxicity was recorded for 180 cycles (epirubicin + paclitaxel for 62 cycles and paclitaxel alone for 118 cycles). The main toxicity in both regimens was hematologic. We observed WHO grade 3-4 neutropenia (in 8 patients, 25%), for which G-CSF (5 microg/kg/day s.c.) was employed. WHO grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia occurred in 2 patients (6%) and WHO grade 3 anemia in 1 patient (3%). CONCLUSIONS: Our study showed that paclitaxel (alone or in combination with epirubicin) is feasible as salvage treatment in heavily pretreated patients.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF) have been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of infections associated with antitumour chemotherapy. This report describes a single-centre experience of the efficacy of pegfilgrastim compared with filgrastim or lenograstim in reducing the incidence of febrile neutropenia in patients receiving combination chemotherapy with taxane and epirubicin in a neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting. METHODS: A total of 118 patients with breast cancer were treated with either epirubicin 75 mg/m(2) and docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) or epirubicin 90 mg/m(2) and paclitaxel 200 mg/m(2) every 3 weeks; 88 received G-CSF support with daily filgrastim or lenograstim and 30 with pegfilgrastim once per cycle. RESULTS: Eight patients (9.1%) with prophylactic filgrastim or lenograstim support developed febrile neutropenia, as well as 1 patient (3.3%) in the pegfilgrastim group (p = 0.445). Febrile neutropenia occurred in 13 (2.7%) of 476 filgrastim or lenograstim supported chemotherapy cycles and in 2 (1.2%) of 172 cycles with pegfilgrastim support (p = 0.376). The frequency of chemotherapy delays and dose reductions was not significantly different between the two G-CSF treatment groups. CONCLUSION: These data show a trend towards superiority of pegfilgrastim over filgrastim or lenograstim in reducing the frequency of febrile neutropenia in patients treated with taxane and epirubicin chemotherapy regimens for breast cancer.  相似文献

PURPOSE: This randomized, noncomparative, parallel-group study was designed to evaluate the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate of combined doxorubicin plus paclitaxel (AP) and doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide (AC) as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated breast cancer who were unsuitable for conservative surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 200 patients with T2-3, N0-1, M0 disease were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive preoperative chemotherapy with either doxorubicin 60 mg/m(2) plus paclitaxel 200 mg/m(2) as a 3-hour infusion (AP) or doxorubicin 60 mg/m(2) plus cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m(2) (AC) every 3 weeks for 4 courses followed by surgery. RESULTS: A pCR (eradication of invasive carcinoma in tumor and in axillary lymph nodes) was found in 16% and 10% of patients in the AP and AC arms, respectively, by study center pathologists, and in 8% and 6% of patients, respectively, by independent pathologists. Patients with pCRs tended to have unifocal disease, tumors with negative hormonal receptor status, and less differentiation (Scarff, Bloom, and Richardson scale grade 3). Breast-conserving surgery was performed in 58% and 45% of patients in the AP and AC arms, respectively. An objective clinical response was achieved in 89% of patients in the AP arm and 70% in the AC arm. At a median follow-up of 31 months, disease-free survival (DFS) was higher in patients who reached pCR versus those without pCR (91% v 70%). CONCLUSION: The encouraging pathologic and clinical responses of patients with breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with doxorubicin plus paclitaxel warrant additional investigation of paclitaxel in the neoadjuvant setting of breast cancer management.  相似文献

PURPOSE: To verify the feasibility of, and quantify the risk of, pneumonitis from locoregional radiotherapy (RT) after high-dose dense chemotherapy with epirubicin and paclitaxel with peripheral blood progenitor cell support in patients with high-risk Stage II-III breast cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Treatment consisted of a mobilizing course of epirubicin 150 mg/m2, preceded by dexrazoxane (Day 1), paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 (Day 2), and filgrastim; followed by three courses of epirubicin 150 mg/m2, preceded by dexrazoxane (Day 1), paclitaxel 400 mg/m2 (Day 2), and peripheral blood progenitor cell support and filgrastim, every 16-19 days. After chemotherapy, patients were treated with locoregional RT, which included the whole breast or the chest wall, axilla, and supraclavicular area. RESULTS: Overall, 64 of 69 patients were evaluable. The interval between the end of chemotherapy and the initiation of RT was at least 1.5-2 months (mean 2). No treatment-related death was reported. After a median follow-up of 27 months from RT (range 5-77 months), neither clinically relevant radiation pneumonitis nor congestive heart failure had been reported. Minor and transitory lung and cardiac toxicities were observed. CONCLUSION: Sequential high doses of epirubicin, preceded by dexrazoxane, and paclitaxel did not adversely affect the tolerability of locoregional RT in breast cancer patients. The risk of pneumonitis was not affected by the use of sequential paclitaxel with an interval of at least 1.5-2 months between the end of chemotherapy and the initiation of RT. Long-term follow-up is needed to define the risk of cardiotoxicity in these patients.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: This phase II protocol of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine/epirubicin/paclitaxel (GET) was designed to determine the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in the breast, clinical response rate, disease-free survival, and overall survival at 2 years as well as toxicity in patients with locally advanced breast cancer. This trial also evaluated the feasibility of tissue collection for gene-expression profiling. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Seventy-six women with stage IIB, IIIA, and IIIB breast cancer were entered into this trial. Patients received a maximum of 6 cycles of neoadjuvant GET chemotherapy every 21 days (gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenously [i.v.] on days 1 and 4, epirubicin 90 mg/m2 i.v. bolus on day 1, and paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 i.v. on day 1). After chemotherapy, patients underwent surgery and were assessed for pathologic response. RESULTS: The pCR rate among the 74 patients evaluable for efficacy was 23% (95% CI, 14%-34.2%). Adverse events among the 76 patients evaluable for toxicity included anemia requiring transfusion (14.5%), infection with grade 3/4 neutropenia (10.5%), febrile neutropenia (7.9%), and platelet transfusion (6.6%). Infectious complications occurred in 24 patients (31.6%), of whom 18.4% were in the setting of neutropenia. High-quality RNA and successful probe synthesis were obtained from all pretreatment core biopsy specimens that contained tumor cells (n=66; 88%). CONCLUSION: Neoadjuvant GET chemotherapy is an active regimen but with substantial toxicity. Tissue collection for gene-expression profiling is feasible in a multi-institutional setting.  相似文献
