Brief Summary

For patients with de novo stage IV breast cancer, the current debate is whether local surgery can improve the survival of patients. There is no clinical study on the classification after systemic treatment of de novo stage IV breast cancer patients. In fact, the clinical stage of tumor can change with the change of treatment. For example, the stage Ⅲ of locally advanced breast cancer can down-staging to the stage Ⅱ after systemic treatment. Similarly, patients with stage Ⅳ can down-staging to stage Ⅱ or stage Ⅲ after systemic treatment. At this time, the patient can receive surgical treatment. Therefore, this study is to first treat de novo stage IV breast cancer patients with systemic treatment, according to the response after systemic treatment to give different treatment measures（surgery or continued systemic treatment）. The investigators hope that this study will provide new ideas for the treatment of de novo stage IV breast cancer and other de novo stage IV cancers.

Detailed Description

This study analysed and summarized the outcomes of the primary and metastatic lesions after first-line systemic therapy in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer and then inferred the timing of surgical treatment. According to the tumour heterogeneity characteristics between the primary and metastatic tumours, the investigators investigated the following A, B and C scenarios. After systemic therapy in patients with de novo metastatic breast cancer, the outcomes of primary and metastatic lesions were mainly divided into four categories (Fig. 1a, b, c, d). It is worth noting that after treatment, the four conditions of a, b, c, and d may alternate with the progression of the tumour or modification of the treatment plan. Therefore, only a proactive evaluation and timely treatment can identify the time window for tumour treatment. The time window for surgical treatment is important because, once missed, the tumour may progress with new metastatic lesions. Figure 1-a: Imaging study indicates complete remission of primary and metastatic tumours. Diagnostic surgical treatment can be performed to determine whether a pathologic complete response (PCR) is achieved and to develop a subsequent treatment plan. Figure 1-b: Imaging study indicates complete remission of the metastatic tumour with residual primary tumour. The state of the patient in this scenario could be equivalent to that of patients with early resectable breast cancer. Surgical treatment of the primary tumour should be promptly performed. Figure 1-c: Complete remission of the primary and residual metastatic tumour. Surgical treatment can be selected for isolated and resectable metastatic tumour. Figure 1-d: No remission or even progression of the primary and metastatic tumours. The systemic treatment plan should be replaced, and the surgical treatment should not be considered.
