Abstract
The concept of primary chemotherapy for patients with operable breast cancer is attractive because it provides the chemosensitivity of the tumour in vivo. Mathematical models, such as logistic regression, give the opportunity to determine chemosensitivity before any treatment by combining clinical and pathological data. Other models, such as machine learning (recursive partitoning, artificial neural network) provides concepts and can be improved by the integration of biological translational data.
