Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary outcome will be to assess the complete tumor pathological response rate of women with breast cancer undergoing vitamin D supplementation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The present study was based on previous research by Almeida-Filho (2017), who detected hypovitaminosis D in 66.1% of women at the time of breast cancer diagnosis and only 33.9% with sufficient values of vitamin D, in women attended at the mastology service of the Botucatu Medical School - São Paulo State University | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary outcome will be to evaluate the complete tumor pathological response rate of women with breast cancer undergoing vitamin D supplementation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy according to age group; tumor staging and subtype; anthropometry (obesity and waist circumference); presence of metabolic syndrome; baseline serum values of vitamin D; and the vitamin D receptor polymorphism | — |
