Efficacy of deescalated chemotherapy according to PAM50 subtypes, immune and proliferation genes in triple‐negative early breast cancer: Primary translational analysis of the WSG‐ADAPT‐TN trial

In the neoadjuvant WSG‐ADAPT‐TN trial, 12‐week nab‐paclitaxel + carboplatin (nab‐pac/carbo) was highly effective and superior to nab‐paclitaxel + gemcitabine (nab‐pac/gem) in triple‐negative breast cancer regarding pathological complete response (pCR). Predictive markers for deescalated taxane/carbo use in TNBC need to be identified. Patients received 4 × nab‐pac 125 mg/m 2 (plus carbo AUC2 or gem 1,000 mg/m 2 d1,8 q21). Expression of 119 genes...
