The purpose of this study is to identify the IL-17 level in breast carcinoma before and after chemotherapy. This research was a cross-sectional study with comparative analysis. Sampling was conducted using accidental sampling method. Interleukin-17 was analyzed using the Elisa method. Data were analyzed using paired T-test with an error tolerance of 0.05. The results showed significant differences before and after chemotherapy in breast cancer, with an increase in IL-17 levels of 46.36 pg/mL. Nonetheless, all the characteristics of good age, stage of cancer, and menopausal status, all experienced an increase in IL-17 levels after chemotherapy Patients with stage 2 cancer stages had the highest increase in IL-17 levels compared to the others, which was 62.09 pg/mL. IL-17 is a potential predictive biomarker for breast cancer therapy. ## Keywords - Breast cancer - Medicine - Chemotherapy - Breast carcinoma - Oncology - Internal medicine - Stage (stratigraphy) - Cancer - Interleukin 6 - Biomarker - Cytokine - Biology - Paleontology - Biochemistry --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
