We retrospectively analyzed locoregional recurrence (LRR), relapse free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) in 55 patients treated for non-inflammatory LABC with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery with or without radiotherapy. The mean follow-up was 55 months. The 3-year OS was 74%, DFS 73% and RFS 87%. The OS and DFS benefit was seen in those receiving radiation, with a mean OS of 89 months versus 68 months (p = 0.029) and mean DFS of 72 months versus 54 months (p = 0.029). Total LRR was 11% (8% versus 17% in the non-radiotherapy group, p = 0.349) and mean RFS of 95 months versus 86 months (p = 0.164). If the treatment planning was to be based on the original extent of the disease, then all patients in our study should have received adjuvant radiotherapy. Significantly lower OS and DFS without the addition of radiotherapy suggests that indication for radiation treatment should be based on the clinical pre-chemotherapy stage rather than the pathological post-chemotherapy stage. Radiation should therefore always be considered regardless of the response to initial chemotherapy for non-inflammatory LABC.
