Response - NO
Brief Summary   With this trial we aim to study whether the addition of Neoadjuvant radiotherapy following neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients improves pathological complete response which translates into better long term outcomes in comparison to adjuvant radiotherapy.This will be a Randomise,parallel assigned, open label 2 arm trial with patients being randomised post Neoadjuvant chemotherapy to either receive Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy followed by Surgery or directly to Surgery followed by Adjuvant chemotherapy with the primary outcome being Pathological complete response.In view of many phase 2 studies done showing that the neoadjuvant RT is feasible and may be more beneficial, a clinical phase 3 study is desirable. A phase 3 RCT answering the question will clarify the proper sequencing of radiotherapy in patients of breast cancer.
