Study summary

An open clinical trial not randomized, multicentric. This study search to evaluate vitamin D supplementation efficacy at high dose (UVEDOSE, colecalciferol, oral solution at 100 000 UI) of vitamin D on day 1 of each cycles for breast cancer treated adjuvant chemotherapy.

A calcium supplementation will be prescribed in parallel.

An initial dosage of 25OH vitamin D rate will be done and a vitamin-calcic dosage will done on day 1 of every cycles of chemotherapy
