dc.description.abstractBreast cancer is the most common cancer and neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) is one of the important treatment modalities in early stage breast cancer. The aim of this study was to investi-gate the ability of serum CK-MB and CK-MB/CK to be an ideal predictive marker for pathologic complete response (pCR) in breast cancer patients receiving NAC and to determine its rela-tionship with clinicopathologic factors. A total of 135 breast cancer patients receiving NAC were included in this retrospective study. The pre-NAC serum laboratory values and clinicopathologi-cal features of the patients were recorded. Regression analysis was used to do predictive factor analysis for pCR. In the statistical analysis, serum CK-MB level was associated with axillary status, PgR status, ER status, and HER2 status. A significant relationship between CK-MB/CK and axillary status and histological grade was found. PgR negativity, ER negativity, high histo-logical grade, axillary negativity, NLR, CK-MB elevation, and high CK-MB/CK ratio were found to be predictive factors for pCR in the univariate regression analysis.CK-MB (OR= 3.48, p= 0.032) and CK-MB/CK ratio (OR= 3.16, p= 0.028) were revealed to be strong predictors of pCR in established multivariate models.In survival analysis, recurrence-free survival (RFS) were shorter in patients with low CK-MB/CK ratio (p= 0.045). There was no significant relationship between CK-MB level and RFS (p= 0.315). In summary, in breast cancer patients who have re-ceived NAC, serum CK-MB level and CK-MB/CK ratio are independent predictors of pCR.To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to assess these variables' predictive impact on NAC response in breast cancer patients.
