PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this randomized phase III trial a total of 668 eligible primary BC patients stratified for tumors > or = 3 cm (n = 567) or inflammatory BC (n = 101) were randomly assigned to receive concurrent preoperative epirubicin/paclitaxel every 3 weeks or dose-dense and dose-escalated sequential epirubicin followed by paclitaxel every 2 weeks. All patients received three cycles of cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and fluorouracil chemotherapy after surgery. RESULTS: IDD treatment significantly improved pathologic complete response rate (18% v 10%; odds ratio [OR] 1.89; P = .008), disease-free survival (DFS; hazard ratio [HR], 0.71; P = .011), and overall survival (OS; HR, 0.83; P = .041) compared to epirubicin/paclitaxel. Patients with inflammatory BC had a particularly poor prognosis and did not appear to benefit from IDD therapy in this trial (DFS HR, 1.10; P = .739; OS HR, 1.25; P = .544). In contrast, patients with noninflammatory BC significantly benefited from IDD treatment (DFS HR, 0.65, P = .005; OS HR, 0.77, P = .013). Treatment effects in multivariate analysis were significant for noninflammatory BC (DFS HR, 0.65, P = .015; OS HR, 0.79, P = .034), but not for all patients (DFS HR, 0.76; P = .088; OS HR, 0.82; P = .059). IDD therapy was associated with significantly more nonhematologic toxicities, anemia, and thrombocytopenia, but with similar neutropenia and infection rates.
