For the purpose of this study, a pathologic complete response (pCR) was defined as no evidence of residual invasive tumor in the breast (pT0) and axillary lymph nodes (pN0), gross or microscopic, in the sample removed at the time of surgical resection. Residual ductal or lobular carcinoma in situ was not considered in pCR assessments. Percentage of participants who experienced pCR is reported.

| Intervention | EXPERIMENTAL | Patients were treated with 6 doses of neoadjuvant gemcitabine 2000 mg/m2, epirubicin 50 mg/m2, and albumin-bound paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 intravenously administered at 14-day intervals. Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, patients underwent either mastectomy or breast conservation surgery; pathologic response to treatment was assessed. Postoperatively, patients received 4 doses of gemcitabine 2000 mg/m2 with albumin-bound paclitaxel 220 mg/m2 at 14-day intervals. Pegfilgrastim 6 mg was administered subcutaneously on day 2 following each dose of chemotherapy. |
