Evaluate The Accuracy Of Breast MRI Biopsy In Diagnosing A Complete Tumor Response For Some Women Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy For Breast Cancer (NCT03289195)
A Prospective Study To Evaluate The Accuracy Of Percutaneous Breast MRI Biopsy In Diagnosing A Pathologic Complete Response Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to test the ability of a breast MRI biopsy to accurately diagnose a complete tumor response to the neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) that the patient just finished. Numerous studies have shown that MRI has the highest accuracy for diagnosing a complete tumor response. The investigator wants to see if in a certain group of women who's breast cancer is no longer visible on the post-treatment MRI that the biopsy specimens from a MRI guided biopsy will accurately diagnose a complete tumor response to treatment which may in the future make breast surgery unnecessary in some women.
