Resumen
The development of adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapies, and breast cancer surgery for primary breast cancer has led to the dramatic improvements in the survival rates of breast cancer patients over the past 50 years. However, recurrence with distant metastasis during the 10 years after surgical treatment is still seen, although not often. Current clinical perspectives are summarized to address unsolved issues in (neo)adjuvant therapy for primary breast cancer. It is necessary to elucidate the gain of antitumor immunity via anticancer agents, the enhancement of drug sensitivity by overcoming drug resistance, and the targeting of therapy based on genomic profiles, which will lead to the complete curing of primary breast cancer.
