Abstract

This clinical trial evaluated recombinant human endostatin in breast cancer neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Eighty-seven patients with stage III breast cancer randomly received 4 cycles neoadjuvant of TEC (docetaxel, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide) or recombinant human endostatin + TEC, followed by surgery. The latter significantly improved the overall survival, suggesting a benefit of adding anti-angiogenesis to standard chemotherapy in the treatment of breast cancer.
