Bevacizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy in the Neo-adjuvant Setting for HER2 (-) Breast Cancer

Summary

Investigators propose to study the efficacy of Bevacizumab plus systemic chemotherapy prior to surgery in order to make a locally advanced tumor operable. Treatment is thus expected to induce a maximum tumor shrinkage within a short period (usually 3-6 months). In addition Bevacizumab (Avastin) is to be administered as early as possible during the disease stages. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the preliminary antitumor activity in terms of pathological complete responses (pCR) of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy.
