Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The probability of pCR in TNBC patients receiving standard of care neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment is associated with the dominance of specific intestinal and intratumoral microbiota that promote anti-tumor immunosurveillance.
