DISEASE FREE SURVIVAL AND ASSOCIATED FACTORS OF ADJUVANT CHEMOTHERAPY DOCETAXEL AND CYCLOPHOSPHAMID (TC) REGIMEN IN ELDERLY BREAST CANCER PATIENTS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Aims: Our study aimed to evaluate disease free survival and associated factorsof adjuvant chemotherapy Docetaxel and Cyclophosphamid (TC) regimen in elderly breast cancer patients treated at K hospital. Population: 70 patients were women, ages ≥ 60, diagnosed breast cancer, treated by surgery mastectomy and adjuvant Docetaxel- Cyclophosphamid regimen at K hospital from 01/2013-12/2018. Methods: Retrospective description. Results: The mean age was 64.74 ± 3.94 (range 60 to 74, 67,1% had cardiovascular disease. 3-year and 5-year disease free survival were 87.7% and 81.1% respectively. DFS was associated with stage and molecular subtype (p<0.05). DFS was not significantly different between those with and without cardiovascular disease (p>0.05). Conclusion: Treatment adjuvant chemotherapy TC regimen in elderly patients has a high DFS rate and should be considered in clinical practice, especially for patients with cardiovascular disease.
