TCX6 versus TCX4 - Why???

Hello, I wanted to share the clinical trial that is still ongoing (no results yet) that compares the DFS/efficacy of TCX6 versus AC-T. I had 6 cycles of TC and was wondering the reason for getting 6 cycles. My oncologist is part of the US Oncology Network and when we decided to throw the book at my cancer, she suggested that I have 6, not 4 cycles of TC because the early results indicated that TC6 was as effective as AC-T with fewer side effects.

I have been tracking this study, patiently waiting for the final results and I thought others on this board who had 6 cycles might want to as well.
