Overview
Brief Summary
This is a phase IV, prospective, single-center, open-label, randomized, controlled study. Eligible patients are randomly assigned into three groups. The investigators propose to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of different neoadjuvant chemotherapies in women with primary breast cancer.

- •No currently uncontrolled diseased (e.g., ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias, unstable diabetes) or active infection
- •No history of other malignancies
- •No currently uncontrolled diseased or active infection
- •Not pregnant or breast feeding, and on appropriate birth control if of child-bearing potential
- •Adequate cardiovascular function reserve without a myocardial infarction within the past six month
Exclusion Criteria

Arms & Interventions
Group B(CEF)
Intervention: 5-FU（intravenous bolus）+epirubicin+cyclophosphamide
Group A(CEFci)
Intervention: 5-FU（intravenous infusion）+epirubicin+cyclophosphamide
Group C(EC)
Intervention: epirubicin+cyclophosphamide
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pathologic complete response （PCR）
Time Frame: up to four weeks after surgery
pathological evaluation by Miller \& Payne Grading System. Pathological complete response (pCR) was defined as no histological evidence of invasive tumor cells in the breast. The presence of DCIS alone was considered as pCR (G5). Residual cancer consisting of scattered tumor cells, not directly measurable, was reported as near pCR (G4)
Secondary Outcomes
- Number of Participants with Ⅲ° and Ⅳ° Adverse Events According to NCI-CTC(at the last day of every chemotherapy cycle)
- Number of patients undergoing breast conserving surgery(up to a week after operation)
