Background: The scarcity of effective therapies has contributed to poor outcomes in triple-negative breast cancer. Objective: To evaluate overall and progression-free survival in patients with triple-negative breast cancer with post-neoadjuvant residual disease, treated with Capecitabine. Methods: Retrospective cohort study. Kaplan-Meier survival functions were calculated. Additionally, Cox regression models were developed for association analysis. Results: Forty-one patients were included, of whom 25 (61%) were postmenopausal, 23 (56.1%) had initial tumors ?5.1cm. The median PFS was 25.03 months (95% CI, 13.37 - 36.68). Twenty six percent of patients had progression at 36 months follow-up, 54.5% of those who had progression were premenopausal. In women with postmenopausal status, higher PFS was observed (HR0.32, 95% CI 0.09 -0.98, p 0.045). The median OS was 55.60 months (95% CI, 46.5-58.5). There was no significant difference between the RCB (Residual Cancer Burden) score and PFS and OS. Conclusion: favorable results were observed in patients with post-neoadjuvant residual disease treated with adjuvant Capecitabine, particularly in postmenopausal patients with less previous tumor size.
