Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is a prospective Belgian, multi-center, open-label, single-arm phase II study of weekly paclitaxel at a dose of 80mg/m² in combination with weekly carboplatin (AUC=2), for 12 weeks, followed by 4 cycles of dose dense epirubicin at a dose of 90 mg/m² and cyclophosphamide at a dose of 600 mg/m² every 2 weeks (plus Long acting GCSF at day 2) administrated preoperatively in locally advanced operable stage II and III triple negative breast cancer to evaluate tumor response in the breast and the axilla.
