Prognostic value of TGIF for TTPBM, overall: HR = 0.77 (95%CI 0.51–1.16); p = 0.213. Of note, the TTPBM analysis in subgroups is not presented due to the small number of bone metastases occurred as first event
HER2 human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, ER estrogen receptor, PR progesterone receptor, iddEPC intense dose-dense epirubicin plus paclitaxel plus cyclophosphamide, ddEC-PwX dose-dense epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide plus paclitaxel weekly and capecitabine, TNBC triple-negative breast cancer, HR hazard ratio, DFS disease-free survival, OS overall survival, CI confidence interval, TTPBM time to primary bone metastasis
