BACKGROUND
Approximately 20% of patients with breast cancer present with locally advanced disease without distant metastases. This phase II double-center trial aimed at investigating the activity of epirubicin (Farmorubicin)--mitoxantrone (Onkotrone/Novantrone) combination as first-line intra-arterial chemotherapy (IAC) in locally advanced breast cancer patients.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Thirty-six patients with locally advanced disease and no prior exposure to anthracyclines received the… CONTINUE READING
