Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Female patients with breast cancer histologically proven by microbiopsy (14G or 16G) enabling confirmation of the diagnosis, and evaluation of the histological prognostic grade, hormonal receptors and HER2 status.
  • Tumor T2 or T3, non-metastasized, non-inflammatory, unilateral
  • Clinically or radiologically measurable lesion greater than 2 cm (ultrasound and/or mammogram)
  • Receptors RE+ and/or RP+ (positive status determined according to the criteria of the investigating centers)
  • HER 2 / neu status of 0, 1+ or 2+ in immunohistochemistry
  • Histological grade I or II
  • Menopausal patients aged greater than or equal to 60 years
  • Patients with ECOG PS greater than or equal to 2
  • Satisfactory hematological, hepatic and renal functions:
  • Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 10 g/dL
  • Platelet count greater than or equal to 100x109/L
  • Polynuclear neutrophil count greater than 1.5x109/L
  • Creatinine less than or equal to ≤ 1.5 ULN
  • AST/ALT less than or equal to 1.5 ULN
  • Alkaline phosphatases less than or equal to 2.5 ULN
  • Patients able to be followed throughout the study
  • Patient's consent obtained.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Inflammatory or T4 breast cancer
  • T1 tumor
  • Patients whose tumor is deemed by the doctor to be difficult to evaluate
  • Tumor that is metastatic from the outset (M1) or locally advanced and inoperable from the outset
  • RE and RP receptors negative or unknown
  • HER 2/neu positive at 3 +
  • Non-menopausal patients
  • Surgical biopsy and/or ganglion dissection before neoadjuvant treatment
  • Significant poorly controlled cardiac disorders, such as unstable angina pectoris, poorly controlled heart failure, arrhythmia requiring treatment, or myocardial infarction within the last 3 months
  • Cardiovascular, hepatic, neurological or endocrine disease, or other major systemic disease that makes it difficult to conduct the protocol or to interpret the results
  • Previous history of cancer that occurred within the last 10 years, with the exception of cervical cancers and basocellular skin cancers that were properly treated
  • Allergy to polysorbate 80
  • Hypersensitivity to docetaxel
  • Participation in another clinical trial with one of the study medicinal products during the 30 days prior to entry in the study
  • Patients who are unable to undergo medical monitoring for geographical, social or psychological reasons
