Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Markers in Breast Cancer and Pathological Responseafter Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy.

The association between pathologic complete response (pCR) following to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and the improved survival in breast cancer has been previously reported. The aim of this study was is to explore the expression of several biomarkers described during epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the achievement of pCR in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. We identified archived pathology tissue from patients with breast cancer who received NAC during the year 2014.
