Multidisciplinary and Tailored Treatment of LABC in Progression during NAC: Case Report

Locally Advanced Breast Cancer (LABC) is a complex disease that requires a multidisciplinary approach. Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) is usually performed in order to achieve loco-regional radical resection; although its importance in the multidisciplinary approach to LABC is well recognised, a small number of patients show Progressive Disease (PD). No standard Salvage Treatment (ST) has been defined and different strategies can be adopted, such as second line systemic therapies, radiation therapy, and surgery. Herein a case of LABC in PD during NAC is reported with a literature review, with the aim of highlighting the importance of a tailored multidisciplinary treatment in each patient.
