Aim: This study investigated the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs) and their treatment response. Materials & methods: 115 patients with pre-NAC core biopsies and post-NAC surgical resection specimens were reviewed. Results: There was no significant change between pre- and post-treatment sTILs. Both pre- and post-NAC sTILs were significantly lower in patients with luminal A subtype. An increase in sTILs was observed in 21 (25.9%) patients after NAC, a decrease in 29 (35.8%) and no change in 31 (38.3%; p = 0.07). Pretreatment sTIL density was independent predictor of pathological complete response in multivariate analyses (odds ratio: 1.025, 95% CI: 1.003–1.047; p = 0.023). Conclusion: High sTIL density in core biopsies was independently related to pathological complete response. In addition, ER appears to be the most crucial factor determining the rate of sTIL.
