Popis: 531 Background: Interim data from this phase III randomized trial (FinXX) evaluating the integration of capecitabine into anthracycline-/taxane-based adjuvant therapy for early BC were recently published (Lancet Oncol 2009); the present subgroup analysis explores the efficacy results in patients with triple-negative BC. Methods: 1,500 patients with axillary node-positive or high-risk node-negative (tumor size > 20 mm, progesterone receptor-negative) BC were randomized to the X-containing regimen: 3x XT (X 900 mg/m2 bid d1–14 and T 60 mg/m2 iv d1, q21d) followed by 3x CEX (C 600 mg/m2 iv d1, E 75 mg/m2 iv d1 and X 900 mg/m2 bid d1–14, q21d; n = 753), or the control regimen: 3x T (80 mg/m2 iv d1, q21d) followed by 3x CEF (C 600 mg/m2, E 75 mg/m2 and F 600 mg/m2 all d1, q21d; n = 747) in January 2004 to May 2007. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS) and the median follow-up time 3 yrs. Results: RFS was significantly increased with the X-containing therapy compared with control (92.5% vs. 8...
