NCT02190227

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal time to use the Tumor RNA Disruption Assay (RDA) as a predictor of pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This is important because the earlier non-responders are identified, the greater is the impact of reducing side effects of ineffective treatments. The study hypothesis is that the RDA score will accurately predict for tumor response after one cycle of chemotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pathologic complete response (pCR).

    Determine the optimal time at which Tumor RNA Disruption Assay (RDA) can predict pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

    At time of surgery (4-8 months after first dose of neoadjuvant therapy).

Study Arms (1)

Tumor RDA biopsy

OTHER

Tumor RDA score measured from an FNA biopsy after cycle 1-2-3 of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and after first cycle of second chemotherapy agent if palpable tumour present.

Device: Tumor RDA biopsy

Interventions

Tumor RDA score measured from an FNA biopsy after cycle 1-2-3 of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and after first cycle of second chemotherapy agent if palpable tumour present.
