title: Effect of preoperative rescue concomitant FUN/XUN-based chemo-radiotherapy for neoadjuvant chemotherapy-refractory breast cancer.
abstract: Even though tumor progression under neoadjuvant chemotherapy is uncommon, its locoregional management remains absolutely unclear. What is the best time for radical surgery or radiotherapy? "Rescue" chemo-radiotherapy could be a suitable radiosensitizing strategy to further reduce tumor progression and allow curative surgery while maintaining systemic therapy.
